How to do an Italian cemetery interment search?
I have used Find-a-grave and A Billion Graves to try to locate some family graves in Italy but there are not many available on these sites. So I wonder if anyone knows of any other way to see who is buried in these cemeteries in the small comunes. I tried using Google Earth and walking through the cemeteries but because there are walls around the cemeteries in Italy, I could not get in. Also tried sending an email to one comune to ask for a list of interments, waiting for a reply. I know some cities in Italy rent graves in cemeteries, didn't think they all did? However, I would think there would still be a list of all that were interred in every cemetery even if they had no headstone or if they were sent to the ossuary. Hoping someone knows where to get a list of interments.

I don't think you will get a list.
While most Communes don't even reply, some might have them online.
What towns are you interested in?
Also, remember that you will hardly find graves older than 100 years.

I was looking in Castelpetroso, Isernia; Ospadellato d’Alpino, Avellino; Calangianus, Sassari, Sardinia; Salsa Irpina, Avellino.
