How to find great great grandfather's birth record
How to find great great grandfather's birth record
He was born in Marcianise in the region of Campania, between 1880-1882. His name was Giuseppe Maietta, and I think his father's name was Angelo. What I most want to find out is his mother's name. How would I go about getting these records? I can't mail/e-mail the comune, because I don't speak Italian. Is there any other way to find them?

Hi Squigy,
from the military enlistment for the first World War it seems that Giuseppe was born on October 1880 in Marcianise:

You can search by yourself between the civil registrations for the town of Marcianise going to your nearest Family History Center because I noticed that they microfilmed the Births, Marriages and deaths from 1809 to 1929:

Or, you can choose to write to the proper office of the Comune of Marcianise asking for the "Copia integrale dell'Atto di Nascita" of your ancestor using one of these form letters:

Re: How to find great great grandfather's birth record
Thanks. I have Ancestry.com, but have never seen these World War draft cards. My Family Histor Center reopens tomorrow, so I'll see if I can find his birth records.
Re: How to find great great grandfather's birth record
Is it okay to e-mail the comune and get the records scanned and sent through e-mail, or do you have to mail them a letter. Also, what would be the fee for these records, and how would I pay for them. I tried my Family History Center but, I live in a small town, and they are volunteers, so I didn't get far (they don't know how to use the microfilm, just the computers).
Re: How to find great great grandfather's birth record
From my little experience I would advise you to write and mail them a letter, even if, on the forum, I have read of persons who had their documents also after e-mail requests...
The address of the Comune of Marcianise (the proper office for these kind of requestes) is:
Comune di Marcianise
Ufficio di Stato Civile
Via Roma, 1
81025 Marcianise CE
However, this is the e-mail address:
Ufficio Stato Civile - Leva:
Tel.: 0823.635210 - Fax: 0823.635326
E-mail: statocivile@comune.marcianise.ce.it (digit with no spaces)

Re: How to find great great grandfather's birth record
Also, do you have ay idea what the fee would be, and how I would pay it if I use e-mail?
Re: How to find great great grandfather's birth record
Not all comunes charge for records, if there is a fee, they will tell you in advance. Any fee would have to be sent snail mail and only Euros are accepted.

Re: How to find great great grandfather's birth record
How long will I wait for a response if I mail them a letter? Do you think they would reply to an email, and if so, how long would I wait for that? And if I do send a letter, should it be handwritten or can I type it? Thanks.
