thank you i willl do that.

sorry peter, i am also having a problem finding the part 3 form letter that you told me to get in order to send for my grandfather's birth certificate. i posted a reply to see if someone could help me write a letter requesting this, figured it would have to be in italian or can you help me find this ...

was wondering if anyone could give me a sample letter to send requesting a birth certificate for a grandfather. Have the address and where to send to.

Peter, found out some info on my grandmother finally. Believe Amelia Benetton was born in 1893 in Ponzano(or Ponsano), Veneto, Treviso, Italy. Where do I go from here? Can you help? do you mind?

thanks for the idea, her marriage certificate is listed in the bc archives web so i can write and ask for the certicate which might give some more info on her. i do not know anything else about her, but will start there.
thanks

thank you so much for your help. any ideas on how to find out about my grandmother. know when she died here in canada and that she was married in italy and had 2 children before coming to canada. can't seem to find any info on my sites that i have checked

peter, not sure what you mean by postal coupons, can you explain.

thanks.

sorrrrryyyy, realized after i replied that you had listed veneto. thanks for the help.

sorry, have no idea. only info I have was that he was born in 1882 in castelfranco, veneto, treviso, italy. that was the info i was given. this is off of his work record. haven't found him on the immigration site as he worked in canda in1922 so therefore the immigrate site won't show me anything ...
