  • Archivio di Stato di Udine onsite Udine, Italy

    The Udine state archive — Friuli and Carnia. Its civil registration is published through Antenati; the notarial and estate papers are not. THE OLD ADDRESS HERE WAS DEAD: asud.cultura.gov.it does not resolve at all, while cultura.gov.it does, so every reader who clicked Udine got nothing. Found by the link sweep, which is the second NXDOMAIN this directory has served — ARHiNET was the first, and that one was found by a reader.

  • BeWeB — Beni ecclesiastici in web catalogue Rome, Italy

    The Italian Church's own register of what its dioceses and parishes hold. It does not show you the books — it tells you which diocesan archive to write to for a parish register, which for pre-1809 southern Italy is the only route there is.

  • Geneanet mixed

    Member-contributed trees and transcriptions, strongest in France. Much is free; a Premium tier gates some search and images.

  • GenTeam.at Vienna, Austria

    Volunteer indexes to the Habsburg lands — Vienna's parish registers, Jewish records, school and guild lists. Free with an account, and it reaches ground the church portals do not.

  • IstriaNet unsurveyed

    A volunteer-built reference on Istria — history, bibliography and the AMSI series index. Worked by the Defranceski archive for the bibliography of Camillo De Franceschi's writings. A guide to where the scholarship is, not a register. Not yet surveyed.

  • Matricula Online free Passau, Germany

    Diocesan parish registers photographed and served free, without an account. Austria and much of Germany and Poland; the Italian entries are South Tyrol.

  • OpenStarts (Università di Trieste) unsurveyed

    The University of Trieste's open repository. Worked by the Defranceski archive, which OCR'd and read the 1869 «Guida schematica di Trieste» — a city directory, which names householders street by street in years no register covers. Not yet surveyed.

  • Cognomix — Mappe dei cognomi italiani index

    Cognomix — where an Italian surname is, by region. OPENED 2026-09-29 on /mappe-dei-cognomi-italiani/FORNASAR, which reports «circa 25 famiglie Fornasar in Italia» and breaks it down: Piemonte 11, Friuli V.G. 8, Veneto 4, Liguria 1, Puglia 1, drawn on a Leaflet map of Italy. Free, no account, and the URL takes the surname uppercased, so a page can be linked to directly. WHAT IT COUNTS IS FAMILIES TODAY, NOT RECORDS. This is the Italian equivalent of the national-register rows this atlas already holds for Croatia, Slovenia and France — «how many people of that name a state counted», the closest thing to «where the name is now» — and the same caveat applies twice over: it says nothing about where a family was in 1780, and a small number tells you as much about the source as about the name. It is an INDEX, not images: there is no register behind it to open. The page carries heavy third-party advertising, which is worth knowing before sending somebody there but says nothing about the data.
