Mune, in the Ćićarija hills of north-east Istria. The register's «klama» is transcribed as written and not interpreted. ⚠ The «okolnost» is the register's own classification and is reported, not adopted. «NOB i savezničke vojne formacije» places the death in the context of the Partisan and allied forces; the perpetrator column says unknown. This archive records what the entry says and does not characterise it further — the classification of Istrian deaths of 1943–45 is contested, the institution that compiled this index is a party to that argument, and a one-name study is not the place to settle it. (doc for the record as printed.) ⚠ He is not attached to a household here. This archive keeps a Vodnjan line, and these are the right surname in the right town — but the census gives a father's forename and nothing else, and no register page has been read that joins them. Recorded, placed on the line, and not descended. (open.) He was 17 years old.

No family is drawn for this name, and no record stands behind it. This archive has not placed it in a household and holds no indexed entry for it — the name reached this project through a chart, a narrative source or the family tree, and everything it does hold is below. The Register is where a record would appear if one turned up.

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.

No prose mention yet

This person has not been written up in an essay yet — most often read straight off a register page that no index anywhere contains. What is known is at the top, and the pages linked above are where the finding sits.

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.
