Hello,

I am currently looking for my great-grandparents' marriage record for dual-citizenship, but I am having some difficulty. Family history records that they were married in Pittsburgh, but the family has been proven wrong on at least one occasion. Searches of the Italian-Catholic dioceses of Pittsburgh from 1903-1910 and a search of county records were all conducted, but nothing turned up. As my great-grandparents did live in Philadelphia, it is quite possible that they were married there. Both were from Italy, but I do not think it was likely that they were married there, as they did not come to the country at the same time.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you very much,

Joe

I have information on this family, let me know

Hi Joe,

I know this is an old post-I hope you found the marriage record you needed. I got dual citizenship at the Philadelphia consulate a little over a year ago. I had a similar situation. My g-grandparents were married in NYC, but I was never able to obtain their marriage record, the city did not have it.

Luckily, at the time of their marriage they reported it to their commune in Sicily. It was listed as an ammendment to their birth records. I was able to use this as an "already on file" and it was accepted. I got to go to Italy on my new passport last summer!

Perhaps your g-grandparents did the same?

Good luck in your search!
