Egidio de Franceschi (1944–2013), 1944–2013. Mione, Ovaro. Every mention of this name in the archive — 4 across 4 pages.
On a De Franceschi stone in the Carnian cemeteries, read from the photograph. > Egidio De Franceschi — 11. 2. 1944 — 22. 8. 2013, in cursive brass on pink granite. Read 29 September 2026 from David's photographs of the Carnian cemeteries — Ovaro, Mione, Muina and Agrons. ⚠ Which of the four cemeteries this stone stands in is not distinguished in the photographs, and is not guessed here. (doc for the inscription.) ⚠ Born the same day as Corrado — 11 February 1944 — and buried in the same cemeteries. Almost certainly twins. (inf.) ⚠ And he is NOT the Egidio on the war memorials, who was killed as a civilian in November 1944 when this man was nine months old. A child may well have been named for him. (inf, and no more.)

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.
