Chersin

A family that married into this one.

Domenica Chersin was the wife of Natale Defranceschi, in a household recorded at Pula (h034) and again at Fažana (h035), mother of Vittorio Giovanni (born 1849) and Angelo (born 1851). The archive's marriage index counts eight indexed marriages with the surname Chersin and groups it as Venetian by its form, which the archive itself calls «a reading, not a finding»; the one Chersin it has placed lived in Austrian Istria.

3 person pages in the archive under the surname Chersin, or for someone married to a bearer of it. How each is known, in the archive's own words: Household 2 · Family tree 1. Only the dead are listed here, and the dates are the archive's: none is added.

Domenica Chersin

Three entries for the same household of 1849–1851: the Pula and Fažana household lists, and David's tree. The archive does not establish that three entries are one woman beyond the tree entry's own note.

Not yet searched. No search under the name Chersin is recorded in the archive's log of what has been read.

The open question names what would settle her son's identity: the Pola burial register, for his age and village at death, and the Fažana baptism book for 1851, for his parents.
