Ancestral great grandparents Atto di Nascita

Post by Kaylie »

I am looking for the Birth Certificates for my paternal ggrandfather, Giuseppe Rodolico, born in Vittoria, (provincia di Ragusa). He had a son, Rosario who married in 1899 to Maria Leotta. He was age 63 at his son's marriage and that would put his birth at approximately 1836. My maternal ggrandfather, Mariano Leotta,born in Riposto, married to Gaetana Conti (provincia Catania) who was also present at his daughter Maria's wedding was age 49 which would have put his birth year at about 1850. Ive tried search for them on a genealogical site but was not successful. I wonder if you could help me find them. Thanks so much.

So we do not duplicate searches :-)

There is some additional information at this thread, including the marriage of Rosario Rudolico and Maria Leotta...

Your site did give me approximate years of birth for my ggrandfathers but I wish to find the actual Atti and would like to have some guidance as to how I can find them. I tried antenati for the pre- unification 1863 Nati but did not find Giovannni Rodolico so I am not asking a duplicate question

Can you tell me if the Atto di Nascita for Mariano Leotta came from church records or from civil records as I would like continue searching for my ggrandmother Gaetana Conti ) who was married to Mariano Leotta. Thank you

So you are saying that the information on my great grandfather was found on microfilm record of the Familysearch site? I believe that all microfilmed records will be "taken off the shelves "of the LDS organization and that their plan is to digitize them and put them on the internet, but that won't be completed for another 5 years. Can you recommend any other internet sites that would allow me to search with my computer? I know that Ancestry has no information on the town of Riposto. Any information would be much appreciated.

I am a little confused about the information that was sent to me about my grandfather Mariano Leotta. The first information indicated his baptismal record indicated his parents were Sebastiano Leotta and Maria Melita. You have indicated this information was incorrect and identified Mariano Leottas parent as Mariano Leotta (my gggranfather) and that his mother and father were Sebastiano Leotta and Gaetana Valastro. You also indicated you would try to verify this information by searching for my great grandfathers baptismal record. My own information that was gathered from my mother and grandmother before their deaths was as follows: my grandmother married Rosario Rodolico and my grandmothers parents were Mariano Leotta and Gaetana Conti. Could some please clarify for me? I would like to put the correct information into my tree and be able to dig deeper by searching other online sites. Thank you

I would like to know if Mariano Leotta had any sisters or brothers. Also I cannot find the names of Sebastiano’s father and mother and whether Sebastiano had any siblings. I do have the names of what might be potential parents of SebastIano from another persons tree on Ancestry: Agatino Leotta and Francesca Mangano but I cannot verify this information. Is there any help you can give me me with all of the above?

My bis Nonno Mariano Leotta and his wife Gaetana Conti had other children, Maria (my grandmother / born May 1880) Liberata, Grazia snd Carmela. I know this for a fact. Where can I find their Atti di Nascita, marriage records and the children they had?
