Cemeteries in Italy?

I was wondering if the cemeteries in Italy are laid out like here and if their records are online. With the research I'm doing I'm curious if/how/when relatives were buried in Geraci Siculo in the mid/late 1800s.

Thanks!

Re: Translation assistance for postcard

Thank you so much! We are trying to figure out who wrote this as it's unclear. Possibly it was my great grandmothers sister.

Thanks in advance for ...

Re: An occupation as a "driver"?

So could you make the comparison that an occupation like that back then could be similiar to a truck driver these days? It would be pretty cool if so because back when I was a kid all I wanted to do was be a truck driver.
