The same name, written another way

This archive holds 5 other pages under what Say Your Name reconciles as the same given name in another language — a Latin register, a Venetian clerk, a Croatian village, a Hungarian office. They are not merged and none of them is claimed to be this person: a shared name is not a shared identity, and the archive will not join one to the other by machine. It is here so that a reader looking for a man the records called Josephus can see where they wrote him Josip.

Identity here is by name, not by resolved individual. Where two people of one name appear in this archive they share this page, and it is for the reader to keep them apart — the surrounding text usually makes it obvious. Nothing here is new evidence; it is the same evidence, brought together.

…Paolo is forty-two and signing his own name — «paolo de Franceschi», lower-case p — as a witness on 18 August 1812. Anna dies in his house at Mione, aged forty-four, on the night of 10–11 November 1815; the death act calls her «Anna de Franceschi», but the banns of the previous June give her maiden name. Born at Mione, on the witnesses' own knowledge. Felice Santo de Franceschi (b. about 1792–93), son of Paolo and Anna, and Lucia Santa de' Canova (b. about 1792)…

…9bre». Saturday 11 November 1815, Mione. Matteo Lupieri, Officer of the Civil State, went to the house on being notified. The act gives the death as «jeri» — the day before — at two in the morning «il Cadavere di Anna de Franceschi … in età d'anni quarantaquattro» — forty-four years old, so born about 1771 «nel Villaggio di Mione in casa di de Franceschi Paolo» — the house is named by its head, and the head is a Paolo de Franceschi this archive did not…

…in the Pieve di Gorto books at Luincis. She is now the fourth named person this archive is waiting on that one collection for. Either the family married itself twice, or the clerk used her husband's name The page gives her as «Anna de Franceschi», married to «Paolo de Franceschi». There are two honest readings and this archive is not going to pick one without a second document. The first is that she was born a de Franceschi. That is not a strange thing to propose here: the 1808 death…

…image 6 of 7 Anna was not born a de Franceschi — and that corrects me Yesterday this page set out two readings of the 1815 death act and refused to choose between them. The act called the dead woman «Anna de Franceschi» and her husband «Paolo de Franceschi», and I wrote that either she was born to the surname — which the 1808 «Giovanna pure de Franceschi» shows is possible here — or the clerk had entered a wife under her husband's name. Five months before…

A dossier is every mention of a name anywhere in this archive's data, gathered automatically and linked back to the page it appears on, with what the archive knows about the person set out at the top. Identity here is by NAME, not by resolved individual: where two people share a name they share a dossier, and the archive says so rather than guessing. Rebuilt from the roster, so every person the archive can name has a page — including the ones read straight off a register that no index anywhere contains.
