Latin Translation

Okay, this is where our families Genealogy gets tricky. All of records are hand written from Italy and often written by the Parish Priest at the time because he was the only one who could read and write. Most the records will have Latin and to help understand the records these are the most common works used in those records

Google.Doc Latin Translation

My advice would be to print these, there are 3 pages. And use them as reference. Trust me you'll need them!

This is the page that our Great Great Grandparent's Marriage. a huge thanks to the lady who helped me get this image and translated it with me:



So you think this is easy and quick? 

Here is a link to all the Italian Genealogy records Family Search has: Italian Collection
These records are somewhat indexed but they are images you need to look through. 

I applaud The Latter Day Saints for scanning and providing all these records for us to enjoy!
