Re: Possible substitute for Birth Certificate?

Too funny...

My Di Santi family is from Atena Lucana, SA.

There is no official birth certificate. There is an entry in an index to birth registers for him that has his first name and date of birth (no parents names), but apparently the actual register was destroyed. The diocese is willing to ...

Possible substitute for Birth Certificate?

Hi,

I need clarification on my great grandfather's "birth record". The county where he was born was not consistent on how the births were reported. I have a "Return of a Birth" document that was completed by the attending physician, but it doesn't include his given name. I also have his baptism ...

Re: Locating Grandfather's Birth Certificate (Possibly Born outside Italy)
