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 at Pola, 4 August 1925, entered «nationality: Venezia Giulia». A separate IRO household from the Dignano one, with Carlo and Violetta née Kuvach beside him. IRO «Care and Maintenance» file, Italy (Arolsen 3.2.1.2) — the paperwork of the esodo, the Istrian exodus of 1947. Arolsen Archives online collections, read 21 September 2026 under the -schi spelling, which this archive had not tried until the service came back up. (doc) And a Livio Defranceschi landed at New York in 1957 on the SS Constitution — NARA T715 roll 8833, film 002322278, «birth place Italian» and nothing finer. A Pola man in a 1947 displaced-persons file and a Livio landing in 1957 are the right shape for one life. This archive is not joining them: the manifest gives no birth year and no town, and the only thing the two records share is a forename. The plate would settle it and is blocked on a FamilySearch sign-in. (inf, and deliberately unresolved.)

No one else in this archive carries this name.
