Hi Steve, thankyou so much but l think that is asking just to much to search that lot, at least we can assume he came from Como as it was only a guess putting the other factors together, we think Francesco may have left under a cloud .......

Sandra,
A bit of good news after all these months!!  The Diocesis Records of Como said they could'nt help if you  remember as there were/are many churches.  Well Sandra some kind sole from the Diocesis has spent time researching the Church records and  come up with the Baptism Certificate for Francesco.

If you  send me by "PM" your e-mail address I will send a copy of the original and a translation.

RE: FRANCESCO TRAVI

For curiosity and nice little story.
I have recently sent by e-mail a copy of the Baptism Certificate and translation to Sandra(reflector).
Francesco was born 08/01/1854 in Domaso, Como and Baptised 10/01/1854.  Mentioned are both parents.

After searching various official offices I came to a dead end because I did not know which Church and it would have taken for ever to comb through them all.  Bearing in mind most records have not been transcribed.  Forgot all about it as a "dead end". In June of this year I received out of the blue the baptism record.  I have since found out that it was an old priest who took the trouble to look at the very old registers in the cellars of the Bishops office.  Must have been a long and ardious job for him. 
It is hard at times getting hold of documents here in Italy, but this one has outshone them all.  I have personally thanked the person concerned.

Hi Steve, Thankyou so much , what a lovely man he must be that did this for me and would like you to thank him from me, l cannot wipe the smile of my face .
The thing is my sister had her DNA done and no Italian ancestry came up so we thought he must have lied about being Italian but appears not, what happened l wonder with the DNA.
l have come up against a brick wall with my Grandfather and his brother have searched every archives l could but no birth for them, l think that if my Gt grandfather registered them maybe with his accent the spelling was wrong so will be impossible to find.
l cannot thank you enough :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

Hi Stephen,
My sincere apologies - Just had a look at my notes and realised I had not replied to you.

The Historical Diocesan Archives in Trieste have no records.  Asked me if I knew the Church.   So dead end there I'm afraid.

Ragusa - Wrote don't know how many times, but never replied.

Don't give up.  As you have jogged my memory I will on Monday telephone Ragusa.

Steve

Hi Stephen,
E-mailed Ragusa again and got no answer.  Telephoned them the other day (thanks for the reminder) and seems no go there either.

Any other info that might pin point something.  The records are somewhere or is it someone is not looking properly here.

Hi sandie,

Will have a go and see what I can find out.  Take time as the BC will not be in the Florence Registry as it was before the Unification of Italy.

I will use BERTOLLA, Enrico Cesare Giuseppe as that would be the italian name at Birth.  Must have changed it when he went to england to the english.
