Gelardi - Brusnengo Piedmont

[paul.gelardi]

I am looking for any information on Giuseppe Gelardi, specifically his birth / baptism record from approximately 1830/1. He gives Brusnengo in Bielle provence as his birth place in the birth cert of his son and refers to his father as Cesare Gelardi,.. however I have no birth date for Cesare.

Does anyone have any access to records for Brusnengo for this period or ideas on how to proceed?


Thanks

Paul

If I went there in person, do you know how I would go about getting to see the records from 1830/1?

Giuseppe Gelardi died in Rome and all his children were born in Rome. No idea if he was married in Rome but that would seem also a logical conclusion. He married Carlotta Giulianni but I don't have a year. I know he died before 1901 and he registered his last son's birth in 1878 so he died in Rome at some time in those 23 years. Are there any online resources that might trace this death?

Family stories say that he ran away from home in Piedmont to join with Garibaldi's army. There is also a reference to the family de Foa, for which I can find no trace at all!!

Paul I said:

that is all that you, maybe, can find by Mormon's microfilms...

I meant if I go to Brusnengo village. I have a week holiday in 2nd week of Sept so I was thinking of maybe going to Brusnengo and having a look for myself.
How would I find the records? Would I call at all / any churches, speak to the priest (if tehy speak English) and ask to have access to the records. Would they actually keep these records in the church? or is the another place that the church records would be kept?

Regards

ah ok...
it is hard to say if the church records are in the parish or in Diocese archive... in both the cases it are no available from anyone, because it are necessary a special permit of Bishop for to see it as a well for to search...
the only chance is if the priest making the search... and it is no easy that....
the better option is to find a genealogist on the place that, maybe, can help...
