Wow awesome appreciate the effort

Looks like i need to go down to my local FHC to access the earlier birth records for the rest.

Struggling to translate any other information from these documents. Do they by chance have any further details? Especially regarding parents birthplaces or ages in them ...

Thanks a lot Marty, deeply appreciated.
I noticed family search does not have online entries around 1841 for Linguaglossa or Castiglione. What would be the next best step to finding these records? Should I send a request to the commune for the documents?

Yeah at some point the name changed, I'm not sure for what reason, perhaps her husbands passing? Although it is spelt with 'Ch' on Antoninos birth certificate aswell, so it can't be. I'm not sure it looks like any records of her before that would be under Piazzitta though, using that surname tool ...

Well the rumours are he drowned in USA ( even though it was said he was one of the few that could swim) so I'm not sure if it's recorded, I will have a check and let you know

Thanks again Marty

Thanks again Marty,

I believe they were his two sisters( they had more children but died when they were young). How would I find Angelos death certificate? He lived in New York City while he was there. Also how would I go about finding more details on Angelos parents?

Deeply appreciated,
John

Wow really good work. This is a break through for me I never knew this.

At this time they were supposed to have lived in malpasso now modernly known as Verzella, where the closest commune was Castiglione. I believe he migrated with another younger brother. Apparently he had sent for them to come to ...

Thanks for the quick response Marty.

Yes good find. I was also told that her name may be under Piazzitta but it slipped my mind, that is definitely her. On Antoninos birth certificate it appears as 'Chiazzitta' so I used that. Although even with that version of the name I can not find any other ...

Hey I have done some family research and can only trace this side of my family back so far.

I am looking for the birth record of Angelo Cubito from Castiglione di Sicilia, Catania born 1871 presumably. He was married to Carmela Chiazzitta, I can not find any records from Catania on her(outside her ...

Thank you guys so much!
This is awesome because it's a good first step to searching this part of my family tree. I will post back here once I get my hands on the military service document. In my email I am replacing registry di leva with, foglio di congedo illimitato, and registro di ruolo along ...

Thanks a lot for the quick response Marty.
Although I'm not sure what you mean? I included his birth year in the first email I sent them. I did notice you added it to my original email message to them so I assume that is the format they prefer to receive?
Is anyone able to help me out with ...

Hey this is my first post on here.
Just doing some research into my family history (hoping to go back past the unification to before the 1800s) and stumbled across this great website which gave me some sample letters to request documents from the local communes. I found out names and dates and sent ...
