Beatrix Hermengildis Defranceschi, 1865 — The Defranceschi Archive

The family

No family chart is drawn for this person, and that is a statement about the data rather than about them. This archive records kin against a name — the tree on a name page gathers everyone who shares it, so it may hold one person's dates beside another's wife. Rather than hand a reader a family that might not be this person's, the chart is drawn only where the relationship is recorded person by person, which today means the direct line.

What the archive knows

She was a daughter, and this archive had her as a son. Gologorica baptisms, folio 128 (M01069142), house 7: «1865 Aprilis 23ᵗⁱᵃ · BEATRIX HERMENGILDIS n. 10 Apr.», of «Franciscus Defranceschi, Possidens» and «Clotilde n. Ortis»; godparents «Luigi Ortis» and «Ermina Marina», entered cives; midwife «Joanna Crismanich». The Sexus column marks her female. (doc — DAPA ZM34K-214.)* Born 10 April 1865, baptised on the 23rd. The date this archive held was right; the name and the sex were not. The correction is published. ✔ And it joins two rows. A second row, beatrix-hermenegildis-de-franceschi-1865, came off David's live MyHeritage tree with the right name and no place, filed «unplaced». The register has both halves: her full name and her household. Marked sameAs — neither retired, both addresses alive, as the archive's own precedent does.* The pid keeps the masculine form it was minted with. hermenegildus-defranceschi-1865 will read so for ever, because a moved id is a dead URL; only the id remembers the error.
