Hi Vitoria, Let's see if I can help you. Bagatin is a typical surname in the Veneto region. It's quite common in the provinces of Padua, Verona and Rovigo. There's only 1 Bagatin in the province of Treviso, nowadays, but maybe it was different, once. Bandiera, instead is very common in Treviso province, check here: <http://elenco.libero.it/elencotel/public/RisultatoComuni.jsp?nome=&cognome=bandiera&provincia=TV&prov=TREVISO> There are still Bandiera's in Castelfranco Veneto: <http://elenco.libero.it/elencotel/engine/WebPersoneOmonimie?nome=&cognome=bandiera&localita=CASTELFRANCO+VENETO> As for your ancestors' names, they should be: Giacomo, Andrea (not Andre) Giuseppa (not Gioseppa). Giuseppina is probably the way she was nicknamed. For their certificates, you could try and contact the State Archive of Treviso, here: [email protected], even though it isn't sure they have something, as official state registers began in 1860. Also, you may contact the Stato Civile office at the Commune of Treviso: <[email protected]> and Castelfranco Veneto: <[email protected]> As for Primo Barboni from Copparo, Barboni is a rare surname in Copparo, there are just 5 of them on the Italian phonebook: <http://elenco.libero.it/elencotel/engine/WebPersoneOmonimie?nome=&cognome=barboni&localita=COPPARO> One fo them, Enzo Barboni, is the mayor, was the last mayor until about a week ago. Maybe he can help you.You can find his data in the above link and here's the Commune's general email address: <[email protected]> Also, you may want to check on http://www.familysearch.org if you can find anything. it's a very rich site, it's a pity it's offline, this morning ;) Hope it helps, let us know if you find anything :) Fabio On 19 Jun 2004 04:29:26 -0700, [email protected] (Vitoria) wrote: >Hello, > >I´m trying to find birth and marriage certificate of my >greatgrandfather Giacomo Bagatin was born in Treviso Italy in 1853 to >1858 - son of Andre Constante Bagatin and Anardella (Anaderba)Bagatin. >He was married with Gioseppa Bandiera (sometimes appear as Giuseppina) >from Veneto Treviso Italy (I dont know the year).
