FamilySearch has published 223,625 civil registration (stato civile) images of births, marriages, and deaths in the custody of Messina (Comune di Messina). It includes records from the town of Nizza di Sicilia (Comune di Nizza di Sicilia) and from the Messina Villages (Villaggi di Messina). These records are still incomplete and more are being published as they become available.
Despite the categorization of the images into record type and years, they are incredibly difficult to search because there is no organization by the name of the villages. (Years of birth, death and marriages records can also be mixed up.)
My ancestors came from many of these villages and over time I have been sifted through these records to find many important genealogical records for my research. It occurred to me that it would be easier to self-categorize these images so that others will be able to go directly to a page rather than click through thousands of images to find the villages they are looking for. If anybody would like to help me in this endeavor it would be much appreciated!
This work-in-progress index is listed below for all to use. Check back for updates.
