ordering deceased parent's birth certificate

[cdevita]

I am very concerned about these difficult to acquire docs getting lost or never returned to me.

I am not that familiar with the requirements of certification and authentication of these documents to comment or offer advise. I would refer you to the recipient of these documents and ask what specifications they require.

Same here for the letter of exemplification which can be seen at Google.com under Letter of Exemplification =Peter=

I have a question-I have sent two requests to the birth and marriage records office in Montemesola and it has been over 1 month with no response. I have typed out a letter in Italian with my request with names of my GGF and GGM (maiden name) along with approx. birth dates and location of their marriage. I am also sending this with approx. $10 in IRC's. Do I need to to send them any copies of any birth certificates, etc. of my grandfather or show any lineage along with the letter of request and IRC's?
