Hi Hazel
This is a website with Italian bmd (Istituto di Conservazione: Archivio di Stato di Firenze)
http://www.antenati.san.beniculturali.it/gallery&g2_view=search.SearchScan
But you need more detailed information about his place of birth, at least the province.
Did you look at the website of the National Archives for his naturalization papers?

ADDED again
I can't find any Powlette births - and only one Pauletti birth which is 1968...so I presume Adam Powlette changed his surname ...you need someone with more experience than I have to try and find what he changed his name to
do you know the names of the children of Adam and Mary ?
if so - can you post them please and their years of birth :)

Adam, son of Paul POWLETTE (sic) m. Mary, daughter of Hewston HUNTER on 25 April 1883 at St Thomas, Leylands, Leeds.
Both Adam and Paul are sculptors on the marriage record.

thank you,I have nothing to prove the correct spelling, 1901 census adam [I am not sure if this is his italian prename ] is living in grimsby with clara jones my gt grandma,my grandfather luigi humbert was born 1897 in nottingham, mary hunter/pauletti has been left in nottingham i think childless but there is a florence mary polletti that gets married in nottingham that I couldnt tie in maybe the child was born in the workhouse she marries a frank field, an italian family of ice cream street hawkers called SOLARI take mary in and they spell her name as pauletti,I presumed he maybe couldnt write his name so every census I have a diff ,I am trying to find him arriving and how he met mary hunter who was brought up in an orphanage,I have been on several italian bmd ,i do not read italian,but thank you i didnt know gt gt grandad was called paul ?I am not sure if this will be correct

Hi
I think the correct spelling of the name, as it is used in Italy, is Paoletti not Pauletti.
At the Italian bmd website I gave you, you can only find something if ou know his place of birth.
You could also search at ancestry.it, but as I'm not registered there I cannot see all details.
By the way, I can read and understand Italian and I can translate from Italian to English.
