Need help getting a record from a commune

Post by ctonholi »

Hello friends,

I'm Brazilian and I started to search for my paternal grandparents Italian records that immigrated to Brasil.

Here is the names and data that I found it:
They married at 16/10/1909 in Brasil so I calculate the birth year.

Maria Luiza Racanelli was born in ~1893 in comune di Melara, Rovigo.
Carlos Tonholli was born in ~1888 in Bolonha.

Is there anyone who can tell where to start to get their records?

Thanks,
Cleyton.

Thank you so much Marty!

The marriage document I have mentioned Barbara Gangini. So this record seems to be what I need to start my Italian citizenship process.

Now I have to find something from Carlos Tonholli.
Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot!

Can I see the marriage record? Sure surname was not Tonelli
How do you know he was from Bologna?

Hi Marty,
Sorry for the long silence. I've been busy last days.

I call to the registry office and they give me all this information like where they born and that is present on marriage record.

I don't have this documents in my hands yet because there is a cost to request. First, I'm gathering all information possible.

Thanks,
Cleyton.
