I am learning so much from what you all have advised and all of the suggested websites and links. I am curious Livio, as to where the old photos that you have on your website came from. Family photos or were you lucky enough to come across old Italy photos, as these would make my heritage book look so much better.
Peter...I would love to write for civil records, marriage banns, death certificates, birth records, etc.... but I only know my Great Grandfather and mother's names and her father listed above. I have no idea who their parents were, etc... and how to get this information and/or how to write for the documents. What do you do and is there a website than can run a letter from English to Italian and vise versa?
Does the church keep their own records and would they be written in Latin instead of Italian? And how do you find out what church your family attended?
