Francesco de Franceschi (1887–1945)

…the archive has flagged that «nineteen in 1806 and twenty-six in 1810 are three years apart and cannot both be right». Twenty-two in August 1809 puts him with the nineteen — born about 1787 — and leaves the «twenty-six» of 1810 as the odd reading. Francesco de Franceschi, aged 25, witness on 21 September 1809 — born about 1784, and almost certainly the Francesco the tailor who married Margherita Gortan. Pasqua née de Franceschi, named as the living mother of a bride: Maddalena Luchini, born 23 January 1789…

…and it is still worth recording: by 1803 there were enough De Franceschi households at Mione for two of them to marry each other. A fifth trade, and a second tailor Antonio is a sartore. This archive already has Francesco de Franceschi, tailor, married to Margherita Gortan at Mione — and has made something of it, because the tailor is the cramar trade that walked into Istria. Antonio is a second one. Two tailors of this surname in one village in the same decade, and neither…

…Morti 1810, act N. 1 — 25 January 1810, eight in the evening, Mione. The registrar Giacomo Micoli views the body of «De Franceschi Anna Cecilia», «in età di un mese» — one month old. The witnesses declare her born at Mione «da Francesco de Franceschi, e Margherita nata Gortan jugali, di professione sarto il primo, agricoltrice la seconda». Witnesses Antonio Bressan, 26, servant, and Matteo Lupieri, 22, possidente, both of Luint. This archive already had her birth. The…

…one, and the odd reading is the 1810 one. Declared ages in these acts are what a neighbour said on a doorstep, not what a register held — and this is a clean demonstration of how far they can drift. Both brothers could write «Francesco de Franceschi» and «Osvaldo Ant.o de Franceschi», in their own hands, at the foot of the act. A tailor and a carpenter, twenty-four and twenty-two, in a mountain village in 1809, both signing. Their kinswoman Orsola, forty years old, could not sign her own…

It turns up eleven more times, and two of those are worth the search on their own. c. 1424 — a bishop of Pola of the name «Serie dei Vescovi di Pola … Francesco de Franceschi, intorno l'anno 1424. Domenico de Luschis dal 1426 al 1451.» Kobler says he is abridging Kandler's list to the men who appear in acts of Fiume — so he had a Fiume document with the bishop's name on it.

…list to the men who appear in acts of Fiume — so he had a Fiume document with the bishop's name on it. And he is not alone: Cavalli's «Della regione litorale Austro-Illirica» of 1845 gives the same sequence independently — Biagio Molino, Tommaso Tommasini, Francesco de Franceschi, Domenico de Lucteriis. Two nineteenth-century Istrian lists, compiled separately, put a De Franceschi in the see of Pola between Tommasini's departure and de Luschis's accession in 1426. This archive has no primary act for him. It is by three centuries the…

…traces to him. The family no longer holds the charter; the claim rests on the nobiliary literature and on the family's own 1838 submission. Two branches, kept in touch In the second half of the sixteenth century Francesco de Franceschi (1520–1598) is sent from Venice to Omiš as a member of the town senate, and is named in the parish books. From that point the family runs in two places at once — Zadar and Omiš — and the literature is explicit that the two nurtured their ties for…
