Bellinich
A family that married into this one.
Catharina Bellinich married Franciscus Defranceschi at Bakar (three baptisms, 1836), and Carolina Bellinich married Francisci Defranceschi Regii there in 1849 — the twins, and the week that took two children.
What is held
- Almost certainly one man and two sisters, the widower marrying his wife's sister; or one woman whose name two indexers read differently.
Searched beyond the parish books
Not yet searched — but Bakar is Hungarian crown land, and the Hungarian material has already produced the Bakar salt office plan of 1827 and the Royal Hungarian port captain.
Where to look next
Hungaricana for Bellinich, and the Bakar baptisms, which would settle the one-man-or-two question in a line.

- Who held it
- Hungarian crown land, not Austrian — a separate legal world with its own ministries, budgets and civil service.
- The registers
- Državni arhiv u Rijeci and the parish books.
- Beyond the registers
- Hungaricana — free, full-text, and the single most under-used source this archive has. State final accounts naming pensioners and their orphans; parliamentary pension schedules with years of service; the National Archives of Hungary plan collection. This is where the office-holders are, and they are in none of the Austrian or Croatian portals.
- Where this archive stands
