What little town or towns? Actually your little town has most likely had it's civil records put on microfilm by the Mormon Church. These films can be rented and viewed by you at one of the church's Family History Library. Check out: http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Home/Welcome/frameset_information.asp to see if your town was filmed and where the nearest Family History Center is located. Short of spending months in Italy, much of it just trying to gain access to the actual records, spending a fortune on postage and reasonable fees asking for transcripts of records,or short of paying some "professional" your hard earned money, searching the microfilms is the way to go. Help is available at the centers and remember, you need not be fluent in Italian. Your looking mainly for names and dates. The rest will come with a little help and common sense. Good luck. Freddie
