Birth or Baptism records in Chieti ca. 1475-1530

Post by greglam »

Hello! I am wondering if records would exist, and how I might find them, of births/baptisms/marriages for the cognome 'Lamatrice' or 'Della Matrice' in Chieti during the years 1475-1530.

Thank you in advance!

FYI

from familysearch.org website

"In general, the church began keeping records in 1563 because of reforms proclaimed at the Council of Trent. Not all parishes conformed until much later. Most parishes have kept registers from about 1595 to the present. A few parishes kept records as early as the 1300s. The church records of Palermo, for example, start about 1350, and the baptistry in Firenze has records from the early 1400s."
