Italian Records - Naples Area

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Roger Report 23 May 2014 03:21

My aunt was Italian from the Naples area.
Name was Italia D' Amelia (Although could be D/'Amelia.
She was born in 1926.
I have her marriage to my Uncle Arthur Hemstock (Forces records).
They then returned to the UK and lived in Hull for many years until; the marriage split and I understand Italia moved back home to the Naples area of Italy.
If anybody has access to Italian records or can trace a contact for anybody in the Naples area by the name of D'Amelia I would be grateful to learn of such information which may allow me to trace information about Aunty after she returned to her home area.. Thank you.

Start by googling

Or look in 'search all member trees'

You must have her father's name from the marriage cert

Hello Ann,
Sorry for the delay but we now live in New Zealand so some 13 hours time difference.
Thank you for all of that information.
Other than the surnames I am not sure how it ties in with Italia are you able to explain a little further for me please. Roger

Hello Again Ann,
I do not have the marriage certificate but I found the marriage somewhere in British Nationals Armed Forces Marriages 1796 - 1905.
Possibly at one stage in Find my Past which I no longer subscribe to.
The marriage took place in Italy in 1946.
I think it was part of the Army Chaplains Returns.

You can buy a copy of the marriage cert from the GRO specifying its an overseas marriage and the form adjusts for the GRO ref
