Re: Where do I write?

UPDATE: I got a response back today, about ten weeks after I sent it out. They were able to provide me with a copy of the record, which I am immediately going to scan and file away in a safe place before I look for it. Thank you again for all of your help!

Where do I write?

My 3rd great-grandmother, Angela Marra, died in Reggio Calabria in 1877. In the 1877 Morti Stato Civile Reggio Calabria, her death record is listed as record 719. However, there appears to be a significant gap in digitized records, specifically, records 107 to 724 are missing.

I have consulted with ...

Re: Naming conventions for children born out of wedlock

Thanks, Pippo

Every following record has said Luttovenera, so that’s the spelling I’m going with. Appreciate it!

Naming conventions for children born out of wedlock

I'm doing a relative's family history and came across a person whose parentage is listed as "padre incognito". A little more research showed that the mother was not married at the time of the child's birth.

The child was given a different surname than that of the mother, and I'm wondering if there ...

Re: Confirm birth month and day

Neither. The birth record lists May 11 1884 as the date of birth.

The birth was recorded on the dodici (12th) of maggio (May).

In the second block, it says "..dichiarato che alle ore antimeridiane una e minuti quindici, del di undici del sudetto mese..." which translates to "...witnessed that at 1 ...

Re: The mystery of Natale Calabrese


We can't be sure, but I'd hypothesize they are the same person
1) Antonino might be the "civil" name, and Domenico "baptismal" name
2) marriage dates are very near and, at that time, civil and religious marriages took place separately
3) It often happened that parents "forgot" to declare children ...

The mystery of Natale Calabrese

Hello,

I believe I have a great-uncle named Natale Calabrese, born on 2 February 1875 to Domenico Calabrese and Carmela Neri. I found his parish birth record and his parish marriage record to Santa Ieracitano on 2 October 1904.

However, I cannot find those records in the Stato Civile. What I did ...

Re: Found a record in the index but it's not digitized - what are my options?

Thanks :)

Back to my original question - is there any way to see an index if it's not digitized online? I understand that the parish in Orti Superiori lost its records before a certain date, but there's got to be a master archive of the Stato Civile, right?
