the direct line, argued on the line

This chart is the direct line and nothing else. Brothers and sisters are not drawn here: this archive records kin against a NAME rather than against a person, so the family on a name page may belong to several different people of that name. Where it is drawn it is read from the direct line, person by person.

What the archive knows

⭐⭐ A boy of fourteen, the son of the navy servant Johann Defranceschi, dead at Pola in 1890. On 10 November 1890, in the civil hospital at Pola, «Defranceschi Eugen Josef, ehel. Sohn des Johann Defranceschi, k.u.k. Marine-Diener», born at Pola in Istria, Catholic, aged 14, male, single, died of «Schädelbruch» [fractured skull] «laut Todtenschein des Civil-Spitals in Pola», and was buried on the naval cemetery on 12 November 1890 (Pola k.u.k. naval parish «Sterb-Register» 1886–1895, image 92; doc). The entry is marked «Isolirte» in the regiment column — the boy was not a serving man, so the book files him under his father's service. Baptism: «Eugen Josef», born at Pola on 8 December 1875, baptised there on 26 February 1876 (two and a half months later), son of «Defranceschi Johann, k.k. Marinediener 3. Cl.» and «Paula Petra, ehel. Tochter des Peter Rocco, Besitzers aus Pola in Istrien»; godparents «Pietro Cal… [surname uncertain], Carpentiere» and «Giuseppe Colombo, Carpentiere»; baptised by Johann Germeck, Marine-Curat; midwife Maria Zimprich (Pola k.u.k. naval parish baptism book 1863–1876, image 292; doc). Her parents and his birth are therefore doc: the boy of 14 who died in November 1890 was born in December 1875 (14 years 11 months), which agrees with the age written in the death entry. Born 8 December 1875 (baptism, doc).
