Interpretation Of Birth Record For Anna Maria Cancilla
Interpretation Of Birth Record For Anna Maria Cancilla
Hello. I am hoping someone can please interpret the birth record and baptism record for Anna Maria Cancilla for me. I believe I have the correct record (One of those hard to read ones, lol). The index shows she is at record 36. The index link and birth record links are below. Thank you so much.

BIRTH RECORD: https://antenati.cultura.gov.it/ark:/12 ... 91/wQNrpEK

In the register
https://antenati.cultura.gov.it/ark:/12 ... 91/wQNrpEK
there are only birth records from 1821-1822, not those from 1820, for which there is only an index.

Joe,
Do you still have a copy of Annamaria’s Baptism record:
https://antenati.cultura.gov.it/ark:/12 ... 57/wQNJ1rK
(Captured from a related thread.)
From the Index you posted: Annamaria was born on 30 March 1820 to Antonio Cancilla and Giovanna Palma.

Thanks Angela. I do have that but was hoping to document the birth certificate as well. Guess that is lost. Hope you are doing well. Joe

Re: Interpretation Of Birth Record For Anna Maria Cancilla
Yes, it's disappointing that those 1820 birth records are not on line. Maybe they were of poor quality or something. Maybe you could try emailing the town and asking them if they could send you a copy of the Birth Act. You have all the information, they just have to locate the 1820 register and look for Act No 36. It's just a thought.Belsitoj wrote: 16 Aug 2025, 17:45 Thanks Angela. I do have that but was hoping to document the birth certificate as well. Guess that is lost. Hope you are doing well. Joe

Thanks Angela. Thats a good idea. Do you know if it has to be written in Italian or can it be in English?

Re: Interpretation Of Birth Record For Anna Maria Cancilla
I would write in Italian.
This should be the address:
Comune di Trabia
Via Spalle
28-90019
Trabia
Palermo
Email: anegrafe@comune.trabia.pa.it or anegrafe@pec.comune.trabia.pa
I'll look for some letter samples for you.

Re: Interpretation Of Birth Record For Anna Maria Cancilla
Joe, I didn't really like any of the samples I found. Some one else might have better ones.
There are also guides here at Family Search:

I'm on my way out shortly and quickly put together the following, but it will probably need tweaking or a complete rewrite:
Egregi Signori
“Copia Integrale dell 1820 Atto di Nascita, Trabia, Numero 36: Anna Maria Cancilla
(Figlia di Antonio Cancilla e Giovanna Palma)”
Mi chiamo (your name here). Sto facendo una ricerca sui miei antenati. Sarei grato se poteste consultare il 1820 Registro delle Nascite e inviarmi una copia integrale del Atto di Nascita, sopra riportato.
Distinti saluti
your name
your email address
Basically you are asking for a photo copy of the complete birth record. That way you won't get just get an extraction of the details from the birth record. It’s better to send an email, that way you won’t have to pay for postage. All the best with this Joe. I know you have been looking for this record for some time now. Take care.

Re: Interpretation Of Birth Record For Anna Maria Cancilla
Very happy to help, Joe. I think that email should be good to go. No one has made any corrections. It's suggested that you also send a copy of your id e.g. drivers licence. I personally never have and have managed to receive replies/documents but that was a long time ago.
