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

Born 1833 at Gallignana — which is Gračišće, the Istrian parish this family comes out of. Three separate naval files, and the rank moves across them: Marinediener 4. Klasse on one, 1. Klasse on the other two, so a career is legible from the catalogue alone. The three files spell his birthplace three different ways — Gallignano, Istrien · Gallignana, Küstenland · Gallignana, Istrien, Illyrien — one man, one village, three clerks. Also VerEv Kdi 219 and VerEv KL-Mardi 76. He is in no Croatian index and Gračišće is not on film; the route to his baptism is a named request to the state archive at Pazin. (doc for birth year, birthplace and rank; unattached to any household here.) Catalogued at AT-OeStA/KA Marine NMA Pers OffBea Akten MGBBl 2651 · ÖStA catalogue. Public, no permission required. The file itself has not been ordered.
