Palermo, Sicily Births
Location: Palermo, Sicilia
This page provides links to data that was uploaded to Google Sites based on the work of Hugh Tornabene using the Archivio Dello Stato Civile from Italian archives. You can read his notes here. It should be noted that some of the dates given represent when a birth was registered, not necessarily the actual date of birth as one may assume. For instance, Salvatore Selvaggio (1865-abt.1940) is listed as being born 12 April 1868, but that was the date of his late birth registration. He was actually born 7 December 1865. His actual birth registration was found in the unindexed records of FamilySearch. Those unindexed records have more information, including the actual street where the parents lived as well as the occupation of the father, as examples. The fact that these dates may be the date of the birth registration and not the birth dates is further illustrated by the fact that, as in our example case, Salvatore had a brother, Francesco, that is listed as being born 17 September 1865. So it would appear that they were born about 3 months apart and we know that is not possible. Francesco would have to have his birth date entered as before 17 September 1865 and an explanation in the biography since we know for certain that 17 September 1865 could not have been his actual date of birth.
Links and citation for the data is provided below. The link is to the "landing" page for each decade. Best practice is to create a link to the actual page where you found your record since there are over 70 pages just for surnames that begin with A in one of the decades, for instance. Once you find your record, just copy the url and that is your link.
Creating a "pretty" url is a good idea. Using our example of Salvatore, he is found on page 56 of the S's between the years 1866 and 1875. The url is:
You don't need all of this information to create a working link; you just need up to the 56.gif. So you can shorten the url to:
https://f517b964-a-62cb3a1a-s-sites.googlegroups.com/site/palermobirths186675noprstuvz/home/s/56.gif
You can leave like that if you like, or create a "pretty url." To do this, place an open bracket " [ " in the beginning of the url, then leave a space after the url, and after the space type what you would like the link to be, followed by the close bracket " ] ".
