Good afternoon all,

I need help translating instructions to obtain a document from the Varese State Archives. I entered this response into google translate and it hacked it terribly, making it very hard to know exactly what the instructions are, besides sending 2 Euro.

I think, and am hoping ...

Ciao Mark !

Thanks for your reply, yes my intention is to submit to other companies. I am also trying to get my brother to test. From what I have read, most people seem to have only slight variations between results from the various companies. So, we shall see if the results will be similar, or if ...

Below is my original results. You may have seen my post, as I was shocked at the 20% Scandinavian result. I even called Ancestry and spoke with a very helpful rep. She discussed all the viking invasions, which I was familiar with, but since I had read that Ancestry developed tests that used more ...

Thank you very much Livio. Your help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks for your help Livio,

Can you please translate the last paragraph? Is it Costa, Matteo? Is he the godfather? And he is of the late Guiseppe?

Thanks again !

Debbie

Good afternoon!

I need help with a baptism record please. I can pick out some family names, but I can't tell if they are parents, or godparents etc. I would appreciate any help with the details.

Thanks so much !

Debbie

Thanks for your help Marty & mmogno!!

Good afternoon!

I would like to make a request of the Diocese of Alba. I have found their website, but not an obvious person to contact. Does anyone know of the person/email address that I should contact for a search request?

Thanks for your help!

Debbie

Wow two beheaded ! What were they beheaded for if you don't mind me asking? That is something. What is your GF surname ftosie? My GGM is from Santo Stefano Roero in NW Piedmont. And my GGF is from Bisuschio in NW Varese. I have learned from Ancestry that that NW corner of Italy is one of the most ...

Hi Amerital43, thanks for your response. I actually called Ancestry and the woman gave a lot of feedback, and was terrific. It is actually not my Irish side. My fathers relatives have no Scandinavian at all. It is from the English and Italian side. That NW corner of Italy, is one of the strongest ...

Thank you Tessa!

Thank you for your help Tressa.

One question if I may. So the godmother Margarita Nizza, Nizza is her married name? And her maiden name is Rista? I have never seen a married name used before on a certificate. I was assuming she would have been the sister of the father, Antonio. But it looks she is ...

Good morning !

I have two baptism records that I would appreciate your help translating please. I can pick out the family names, but I want to make sure I have the dates correct, and also am having trouble with some the of the godparents names, and what is says after their names, and at the bottom ...

I was thinking the same thing, maybe contacting them to give them some feedback, and see where it goes. I know the results are approximations, but I just don't see how that could be accurate, and would think if there is Scandinavian, it would have to be from long ago, so then don't see how it could ...

Hi All,

I just got my DNA results back from Ancestry, and have had the shock of a lifetime ! My results are:

52% Ireland/Scotland/Wales
20% Scandinavian
12% Iberian Peninsula
6% Great Britain

Low Confidence Region
4% Europe South
4% Europe West

I expected the 52% Irish, as my paternal ...
