Europe / Re: Italy: My Italian Relatives

Have you tried www.familysearch.org
the Mormons have films of births,deaths and marriages for many places in Italy.
You may be able to find a Family History Centre near where you live and once you order a film you have to go there to view the actual records.
I was trying to copy a link for you but at the moment the site seems to be on maintanence and is on the 'go slow'
If you want to try later log into the site scroll down on the home page to where it says 'Find a Family history Centre' type in where you live it will bring up a list of the nearest FHC to where you live.
to get to the list of films available you click on 'Library' then on the drop down menu choose Library catalogue click on that then choose 'key word search' now type in the comune/place in Italy you are wanting to search click again and it will take you to another page with the name of the place if its in their records and if you look up in the top right hand corner you will see a box saying 'films available' click on that and it will bring up a list of all the years of birth death marriage records that they have films available to hire.
Hope this helps

Europe / ITALY + web site -familylink.com
« on: Saturday 11 September 10 22:06 BST (UK)  »
Does anyone have a subscription to this site who would be willing to look up some information for me . I'm helping a friend to try to trace her ancestors in Italy.
The surname we are searching is Iuda (Giulietta)
On going onto the familylink web site it states there are records of a birth etc for Iuda. I'm aware you can get a 3day free trial on the familylink site but you have to leave credit card details and if you dont cancel within the given time your card will be charged for a years subscription, I wouldnt mind chancing the 3 day trial but as I only require it for this one look up (I do my own research with the films from the mormon site at my FHC) and because at times I can be  really forgetful I would probably finish up with a years subscription for a site I dont need for my own research.
I'd be really grateful for any help

New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: Passenger lists for ships arriving Port Chalmers
« on: Thursday 13 November 08 17:22 GMT (UK)  »
Thank you all for your suggestions I'm taking a note of them for further reference if I ever need it. I thought I had posted saying that I did get help from this site, (perhaps it was posted on another thread) where they originally came from in Scotland, etc and I passed all the information onto my friend in NZ and from that she found out more infromation over there.
Sorry for the delay in replying but I have been on holiday.
Again Many thanks for everyone's help it was very much appreciated both by me and my friend.

Hi Scottish Rose
Have you tried using the films available from www.familysearch.org
They do have films available for Lucca this is the link
http://www.familysearch.org/eng/library/fhlcatalog/supermainframeset.asp?display=titledetails&titleno=721177&disp=Registri+dello+stato+civile+di+Capannori%20%20&columns=*,0,0
then click on 'film notes' lets you see what films are available.
If you want to find the nearest Family History Centre to where you live this is the link :

http://www.familysearch.org/eng/default.asp
(scroll down the page and fill in your address etc)
If you want any more information about ordering the films etc will be glad to help you with the information.

(the birth and marriage acts etc are all in Italian)

Europe / Re: Research in France?

French Authorities seem to be excellent in replying to requests. This morning I received a copy of David Caird's birth certifcate with just a short note of what the expenses had come to:- the cost of the photocopying and the postage no charge for their time or the  document. Total 1.55 euros.

I still cant believe they have replied so quickly.

Family History Beginners Board / Re: Offline Tree Maker.

Hi Basdfg
Thought this may of interest to you especially if you want a record of the results of your research to give to someone.
Last week a friend let me see a booklet she had bought a while ago for recording her records and I have managed to get some copies of it to give a copy of my research to each of my children books £3 each -not expensive. It's A4 'paperback' with a glossy front cover saying 'The Family Record'
This is ideal for giving the family a present . The good thing is its also going to keep all my records in one place now. The centre pages contain two separate family trees left side for father's family and right side for mother's family. Records for 5 generations.
From the centre pages to the front is your father's family and from the centre to the back is your mother's family. Each entry on the centre page is numbered and the corresponding page in the book will hold all the information about that person.
I also bought a blank A3 family tree. great to see everything at one glance.
Just thought I'd share.

Just in case anyone is interested in buying a copy this is the link
www.anesfhs.org.uk/publ.htm#series5
scroll down: the number of the book is AA535: there is also a page that gives the cost of postage for UK and outwith the UK
This is their emailaddress etc.

I sent an email to the Mairie on Saturday and I had a reply today from what I gather I have to write to another address. I was surprised and pleased I received a reply so quickly.

I have found what I believe is a link to David Caird  in France but I cant get any further into this site because I dont have a subscription to it.  If someone has a subscription to this site to check the document for me I would be very grateful. Don’t think this information will be on Ancestry.
This is the link, the ones I'm interested in is 1851-1851 that says Stranraer and the one above it. As yet I don’t know what it relates to but I think it could be something to do with some of the family returning to UK from France.
Be grateful for any help or suggestions what this document is.
Emmy
