The information contained in these pages was extracted from the 14 reels of microfilm described on this Family History Library Catalog web page.
As my research progressed, I found that I was adding more and more surnames to my lines and that I was extracting most, if not all, of the records for any given year. So, I decided to extract everything and make the information available through my web page. This is a work in progress; some information may not be available or may change as corrections are made. Use the About the Records button to view a description of the extract pages.
Extract format
The pages presented here are formatted to match the Word document into which I enter all extracted data
before entering it into my genealogy database. As I add the data to my database, I change the color of the text in the Word document to
dark red. When I find a clerical error, some other inconsistancy (such as a transcription error on my part) or have a note
to myself, I high-light the text in yellow. Move your cursor over the high-lighted text in the sample below to see the
note to myself. Once any questions are resolved, the high-light is removed. Note: I have noticed that this feature sometimes does not work in IE.
Here is the basic format for my Word document followed by an actual example.
Reel number Year Document type Index# dd.mm full name, age, occupation - father's first name, age, occupation, mother's full name, age, occupation, marital status Index# dd.mm full name, age, occupation - father's first name, age, occupation, mother's full name, age, occupation bobina 1424068 ANNO 1900 Registro degli atti di Nascita #1 04.01 Quirino Santoleri - Donato, 42, contadino e Maria Garzarella, contadina #2 06.01 Pasquale Vincenzo di Bello - Giovanni, 23, proprietario e Maria Giovanna di Giorgio, filatrice #3 14.01 Laura Verna - Domenico, 44, fabbro ferraro e Filomena di Giulio, filatrice
Included Information
In many cases, relatives appear before the clerk to present the information regarding the birth or death. When available, that information appears after the mother's information.
Footnote references (all starting with '@') are links to the footnote page. Most of the footnotes refer to birth and death places other than Pennapiedimonte and to margin notes about marriages or corrections that were made in the birth records.
Missing Information
No records exist for the years 1866 through 1870. Some other years have missing records of varying types. For example, there are no banns for 1862 and no death records for 1871. There are no marriage records or banns for 1861 and the birth and death records have no index numbers and don't start until August and September.
One Final Note:
This pop-up window and those for the glossary on the extract pages can be moved around using 'Click & Drag'. A handy feature if the glossary is covering the word you are looking up. To move the window, move your mouse over the title bar. When the cursor changes, press and hold the left mouse button while dragging the window to a new position.
If you do move the window, the pop-up notes no longer appear above and to the left of the cursor. Instead, they appear just below the browser's tool bars. I'm using some open-source code that I found on the 'net'. I'll have to study it for a bit, but hope to eventually have a fix for this quirk. For the time being, I am concentrating on completing the extract pages. Refreshing the page will restore the functionality.
