*[[Italy Church Records]] are also a good substitute when civil records of births, marriages, and deaths cannot be found or are unavailable
*Try searching by surname only

*The person may be recorded with an abbreviated or variant form of their name
*Your ancestor may have immigrated to another country. Search the records of nearby areas or [[Italy Emigration and Immigration]] records

*Search the indexes and records of [[Italy Societies|local genealogical societies]]
*Check church records to see if the event is recorded there
*Remember that sometimes individuals went by [http://usgenweb.org/research/nicknames.html nicknames] or alternated between using first and middle names
*New information is constantly being indexed, microfilmed or updated.  Periodically check back to see if your ancestor’s records have been added.  You can see if the area you’ve been looking in has been recently updated by going to [https://familysearch.org/search/collection/list Historical Records Collections].  Watch for an asterisk for recently added or updated records
