Hello,
my cousin and I just found out we have ancestry from Florence. One of our ancestors, Filippo Maccarelli was born in Rome in 1771. His father is listed as Pietro Maccarelli of Florence.
I found this resource, but I am a little unclear. Does it give access to ALL baptisms of Florence, or just those of a single parish?

"Archivio storico delle fedi di battesimo, appartenente all'Archivio dell'Opera del Duomo di Firenze.
È possibile consultare la banca dati contenente i registri di chi ha ricevuto il battesimo a Firenze dal 1450 al 1900.
Altre ricerche sui registri di battesimo, matrimonio e morte si possono effettuare negli Archivi parrocchiali e/o negli Archivi diocesani competenti (Libri canonici e Stati d'anime). Si ricorda a tale proposito che i registri di battesimo, matrimonio e morte tenuti dai parroci continuarono ad essere compilati sia nel periodo francese che nel periodo lorenese, e che i Registri parziali per comunità contengono un rimando ai registri parrocchiali."

Re: Florence
Try the antenati site. It appears to have all parishes and is probably easier to navigate.

Re: Florence
The antenati site does not go back to the 1700s....which is my starting point here 

TIP: When asking for records from Italy, do NOT ask for an "estratto." ALWAYS ask for a "copia integrale." A photocopy of the original Act will contain more information

Re: Florence
Then you are looking at parish records on site. Not all parishes have records that predate 1700.

Re: Florence
Sorry but I know that......I was asking about the digital records at the link I posted. There are digital records predating 1700s for Florence online. I just want to know if they are for one Parish or all parishes....
