Orlis / Ortis
A family that married into our own direct line.
Three generations of Ortis stand beside this family, across seventy-two years. Matthaeus at the font in 1787, his son Dominus Joannes in 1813, and Clotilda marrying Franciscus Xaverius Defranceschi — Carlo's brother — in 1859. The connection to Novaki is not the marriage; the marriage is the end of it.
- Matthaeus Ortis of Novaki — godfather at the Gologorica baptism of Joannes Baptista Defranceschi, 13 August 1787, entered «Matth: Ortis ex Novacco». (doc — ZM34K-214, M01069018.)
- Dominus Joannes Ortis, «Dni Matthiae filius, ex Novacco» — his son — godfather in 1813, both men styled Dominus. (doc — M01069074.)
- Clotilda, born 12 October 1834, died 27 February 1881. Entered «Clotilda uxor Ortis, filia Joannis ac Franciscæ», and coming «Ex Parochia Novacis sub N.º 2». (doc — ZM34K-214, M01069333.)
- Joannes and Francisca, her parents, named in that one line and nowhere else here.
- Victor Josephus, her son with Franciscus Xaverius, born 22 April 1862.
⚠ The name is spelled two ways in two books of the same parish. The 1894 status animarum gives Orlis; the 1826 book gives Ortis. Neither is preferred, because this archive's rule is that a hand is only legible against itself and the same scribe has not been found writing both forms. The row carries both until one is settled.
Novaki is also where a priest of Gologorica came from — Josephus Flegar, born 16 April 1845, in the succession on the line page. Nothing joins them; it is recorded because the parish is small and the next person should know the name is in both places.
