Finding a Name Change Record

[nyrnd1]

My Grandfather was born in Cervino as Francesco DeLucia. In 1910 his name was changed legally to Francesco DiLucia Sposito. I have researched and believe the Sposito goes back to his Grandfather and I also have an understanding of the Foundlings. I've attached the birth notice and i think the notation deals with changing his name. Does anyone know where i can find the petition document or any document dealing with the details of the name change? He was born in Cervino as i mentioned and was married in 1914 in Maddaloni to my Grandma. The civil marriage record does use the Sposito surname. So, would I look in Cervino, Maddaloni, both?
Thanks as always.

Because Francesco’s birth was registered in Cervino, and that is where the notice of the rectification was sent, then my thinking is that is where the copy of the notification should be filed. (I don’t think that it is online though?) Therefore, I am wondering whether it might be better to write to the State Archive of Caserta (Archivio di Stato di Caserta” who would hold a duplicate copy of the deed from the Civil Tribunale of Santa Maria Capua Vetere where the rectification was actioned. This isn't really my area of expertise so hopefully someone else might chime in if they know better.

Best to you with this.

Thank you. I will send to them today. I'm visiting Cervino for the first time soon and perhaps i could also visit an office in person. I know its a rather small town. I appreciate your help and will post the results of your suggestion.
