Email needs Translation

Post by lilbees »

I received this email this am. Could someone translate for me?

Gentile Sig.ra Yeoman,
a seguito della Sua lettera del 20 gennaio scorso, Le faccio presente che questa Ambasciata non puo' occuparsi di fare le ricerche sui suoi avi.
Lei stessa potrebbe rivolgersi alla
PRELATURE DE TUNIS
4, Rue d'Alger
1000 Tunisia
e vedere se possono emetterle alcuno di quegli atti, altrimenti Le consiglio di rivolgersi a qualche Agenzia specializzata in ricerche genealogiche.
Distinti saluti,
Nunziaclara Barone

With reference to your letter dated January 20, I point out that this Embassy cannot take care of researches related to your ancestors.
You could address your request to
PRELATURE DE TUNIS
4, Rue d'Alger
1000 Tunisia
and ask if they can issue some of those acts, otherwise I suggest that you engage an Agency that is specialized in genealogical researches.
Best Regards
Nunziaclara Barone

Thank you Livio.

My confusion lies in the fact that my great grandparents circa 1870-1925 were Italian Citizens living in Tunisia and my understanding is that they keep the records for them. They were never naturalized there. The consular's website explains this information for requests. I have specific birthdates, etc.

It takes a while for an answer but they do eventually answer.
