Hi John,
No problem for me.
Have sent an e-mail to Capri this morning requesting the BC of Mario Alberini.
I have also asked if it is possible  for them to search for the marriage of his parents, which would be 1912/1913.
As soon as I hear will let you know.

Regards
Steve

Hi Steve

Would you be able to get a marriage certificate/registration for me please.

The bride was Caterina Maria Maganetti and the groom Pietro Della Vedova. The date of the marriage was on or about 24 July 1911 but no later than 26 July 2011. The marriage was supposed to have taken place in Tirano.

Thanks.

mixedupmob,

Just got a reply from the "Comune di Tirano":-

"There is no resulting marriage between DELLA VEDOVA, Pietro and MAGANETTI, Caterina Maria per the year 1911 in the town of Tirano".

 So the question is where did they get married - in a town nearby maybe, but which?

Sorry I could not help. Post me if you have anything else  - only too pleased to help.

Thanks Steve. That explains a few things for me even though I was always told that was the date of marriage for Pietro and Caterina it was not noted on either of their birth registrations like most other marriages have been.

I have another marriage that I am after. It is for Giovanni Antonio Accerri. The marriage took place on or about 7 March 1921 in Tirano. I know this one took place as it is noted on Giovanni's birth registration but I cannot make out who he married.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Steve,
I am doing a bit of research for a friend. Her father (whom she barely knew) died in March 1987 (aged 75) in Ventimiglia, Imperia, Liguria, Italy. His name was Eric Anthony Spencer Batchelor, he was an OBE & also awarded the Military Cross in the war. He does not appear to be on the list of British Nationals dying overseas so perhaps not reported to the British Consul. She has a photograph of the gravestone but needs a death certificate in order to apply for his army records. I wondered if there was any possibility of finding out if there is a death certificate available from the local archives and, if so, how she can go about getting a copy.

Many thanks

Paul

Hi Paul,
I will e-mail the "Comune di Ventimiglia" and request a  copy of the Death Certificate.
It may take time as you can see from above posts I am still waiting for replies.  All depends how fast they are.  Sometimes they need reminders!

Hi Steve,

Thank you very much - no desperate rush.

A little more information - I believe he is buried in the Englis/British cemetery in Bordighera, Imperia. Date of death I believe 28th March 1987, so probably buried in April.
Many of these facts come from public trees on ancestry.co.uk, so have to be treated with a little caution!
