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
Aged sixty when he crossed. New York City passenger lists: «Riccardo Defranceschi, age 60, birth year 1889, birth place Italian, arrival year 1949, arrival city New York, ship Atlantico» — NARA publication T715, roll 7738, film 002296450.
A man of sixty arriving in 1949 is not an economic migrant, and the year is the middle of the Istrian esodo. The manifest would say where he came from; the index does not — the post-war series records only nationality, and the town is on the plate. (doc for the arrival; everything about his origin is open.)
