What the archive knows

Named as the bride's mother, and the two surviving copies of the act do not agree on her surname. The marriage of Rotilio Defranceschi and Albina Cincopan was requested by the Comune di Pisino and published at Trieste in April 1928. Both the request and the Trieste transcription of it survive, and they give her differently:

copyreads
Trieste, Marriage Proclamation Records 1928«e di Trompich Maria, di professione casalinga»
Pisino request no. 46, in the Trieste banns supplements«e di Fumpich Maria o di professione casa Linga»
Same act, same clerk's hand copied twice, one letter apart. This archive does not choose between them. Trompich is a known Istrian surname and Fumpich is not one this archive has met, which is a reason to lean and not a reason to decide — and both readings come from AI-generated transcripts of handwriting, so the error could be the machine's rather than the clerk's. The plate itself has not been magnified. (open — and cheap to settle, since both images are online.) She was alive at Gallignana in April 1928, a casalinga, wife of Giuseppe Cincopan the farmer and mother of Albina Cincopan Defranceschi.

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.

The Defranceschi Archive

…Nothing, in the sense that no page linked to it — but it stayed live and published the single spelling Trompich as settled, after the archive had established that the two copies of the act disagree. The row was renamed to Maria Trompich or Fumpich (Cincopan) and the new page built, but build-dossiers.py never prunes, so the old dossier survived every rebuild. Deleted by hand. A rename is not a move; it is a copy unless the old one is removed. 21 Sept 2026…

…is not a rich seam; it is a broken query. Coverage dossiers-are-additive Renaming a person leaves their old page standing, because the dossier builder only ever adds. Maria Trompich (Cincopan) was renamed to Maria Trompich or Fumpich (Cincopan) when the two copies of her daughter's marriage act turned out to disagree. The new page appeared; the old one kept answering 200 on the live site, with the superseded single spelling on it. build-dossiers.py writes a dossier for every…

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.
