My apologies to everyone.  Computer crashed and lost everything - now repaired.
I cannot remember where I have written in Italy for details.
If you are waiting for me, please let me know and I will start again.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi Steve
Sorry to hear about your computer crash I had one last year ended up getting a new one. I lost lots of family info but gradually getting some back.

My query was about my wife's ancestor John Lando who was British and was born about 1836 in Genoa.

GIOVANNI LANDO

Hi Peter

Just got this morning an e-mail from the State Archives of Genova.  There records are 1796-1812.
Suggested I write to Town Hall in Moneglia.  Have sent them an e-mail.
Being Italian Holidays it might take some time.

Steve

Thank you very much Steve for taking the trouble helping us in the Lando search.

I obtained the baptism certificate from the Parish of the Holy Cross in Moneglia for
Gianandrea Baptist Lando
Simon's son
and Petronilla Marengo
legitimate spouses
born September 7, 1831was baptized on September 8, 1831

They had no further births. Lets hope the Town Hall comes up with information.

Hello Steve,
Sorry about your computer problems.
Would really like to find military records for Bernardo Gatti who was born 29 September 1881 at Melara, Rovigo Province.  His family would like to know if he served in World War I.

Thank you for your help

John/Giovanni LANDO

Hi Peter,
Town Hall have replied and said they do not have the records as  it is before the unification of Italy.  They said the only way would be to try Church records.  In that case we would need to know if he was born in Moneglia.

trevthecat,

Will write to Rovigo State Archives first and see what they come up with.

Thanks, Steve. Will see what happens. It would be great if we could find this.

trevthecat,

Just got a reply from the Rovigo Archives.  They have no documents relating to Bernardo GATTI and he does not result in their Military Records.

Sorry I could not help this time.

Hi Steve,

How would I go about finding a Birth Certificate for;

Mario Alberino. Born:19 July 1913. Probably Isle of Capri.

Parents Enrico? Alberino (fisherman) & Maria Rosa Ferraro (B.1888).
Probably married not long before 1913 in Isle of Capri.

It is the parents marriage I am after so I am hoping the sons Birth Cert will give me some clues.

Regards,
John.
