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.

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.

Hi Steve

Thank you for attempting to find the information for me. Sorry, I have not replied before but I have not been keeping up with Rootschat posts.

Just one other question - where or to whom do I contact to find out about deaths after 1910 for someone who died in Tirano? I know I can access deaths from 1866-1910 as they have been digitalised by family search and are available for browsing on their web site.

Hi mixedupmob,
Italy was unified in 1861 and so all records after that date are held in the local town halls and or the Church records.
For 1910+  I would go for the Town Hall in Tirano.  They may not search if they do not have a date and or month to check.

If you want and send me some details I can try and get the info for you.  Its not a problem for me.

Steve, thank you for your kind offer. The death registrations I am after are for the following people:-

Giovanni Pietro MAGANETTI died about 9 May 1932
Antonia GANDINI died about 6 June 1937
Pietro MAGANETTI died about 23 June 1932

I would like to confirm the actual date of death, parents and/or spouse of each. If the information I have been given is correct then Pietro and Antonia are husband and wife and Giovanni is their son.

Any information you can get will be greatly appreciated and I thank you for your kindness in assisting me.

Hi mixedupmob,
Just sent an e-mail to the Town.  They should be able to find them given the dates more or less.
Don't know how long it will take.

I look forward to their reply in due course.
