- Joseph De Franceschi — 1940, East Farmingdale, Suffolk County, New York, USA
Long Island National Cemetery Not on this family's line, and this archive said otherwise. The row was flagged as the compiler's own kin, which is a claim that a path can be named from this person to David. No path can be. It is a headstone with a shared surname on it, in the American or the Italian-Australian diaspora, and both of those are separate movements from this family's — the diaspora page says so. Left in the archive, where it belongs, and no longer counted as kin. The audit.
This archive holds 10 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.

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.
