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.

One relationship on this chart was never date-tested. This archive refuses a relative whose years do not fit — more than six out for a child, outside twelve to sixty for a parent. Where one side has no year at all that test cannot run, and the link is drawn on the name. It is shown because most people in the early registers carry no year, and refusing them would empty the chart of the centuries this archive exists to show. It is counted here because a line nothing tested is a weaker claim than a line that passed, and the chart cannot tell them apart.

What the archive knows

⭐⭐ DOCUMENTED AT BOTH ENDS OF A SIX-MONTH LIFE, 12 October 2026 — and the name was wrong. She was one of seventeen Ližnjan people resting on the family tree and no document at all. Both register entries have now been read on the page, not in an index. BAPTISM. Ližnjan «Liber Baptizatorum», page 15, Annus 1870, first entry: «9ⁿᵃ Januarii 1870», house 3, baptised by D. Gregorius Smak, coop. par. — «Fusca, nata hodie», catholic, female, legitimate, of «Matthæus Defranceschi», agricola, and «Maria n. Primus». FamilySearch waypoint 9R2Z-44D, frame 51. BURIAL. Ližnjan «Liber Defunctorum», page 54: «mortua 6. Julii, sepult. 8 ejusdem», house 3 — the same house — «Fusca filia Matthæi Defranceschi q. Matthæi et Mariæ n. Primus q. Paschalis», aged «6 mens.», of «debilitas». Waypoint 9R2Z-4WG, frame 31. Born 9 January, dead 6 July: five months and twenty-seven days. The age column says six months and the two entries agree with each other — same house, same parents, consistent age. That is the corroboration this archive wants and rarely gets: one book checking another without being asked. ⭐ And the burial names two grandfathers the archive did not have — «q. Matthæi», her father's late father, and «q. Paschalis», her mother's late father, a Primus. ⚠ THE NAME. The register reads «Fusca», with an F, in BOTH entries. The tree gave «Tusca», which is not a name. The rule here is that a hand is only legible against itself, and the burial page supplies the test without being sought: its first entry, same page and same hand, reads «Catharina filia di Giovanni Garbin e di Fosca» — the same initial, on a woman's name already known in this parish. Fosca/Fusca is an Istrian name; Tusca is not. Two independent entries, one contemporary comparison. ⚠ Her id stays tusca-defranceschi-1870. Ids are minted once and frozen — a moved id is a dead URL — so the id keeps the error the page no longer carries. That is the intended behaviour, not an oversight.
