the Family History Center has microfilm for the town of Casalbordino. The films cost about $5.75 a roll. On the film you can find copies of the birth, marriage, and death acts of your ancestors. These films go from 1809-1900. Here is the link to find the Family History Center.

For any record after 1900, you will have to write to the town directly. Here is the address.

I hope this helps some!
