Mathea
Mathea. Gologorica, house 6 · 10. Every mention of this name in the archive — 12 across 8 pages.
Named in household h117 on the households list, at Gologorica, house 6 · 10, as the wife of Leonardus Defranceschi, cives, a De Franceschi, and the mother of no recorded children. Evidence class: read — from registers this archive has read. No birth, death or occupation is printed for this person, so none is claimed. Not of the name's surname — kept because the person married into it; the household list gives the couple and nothing about their origin. Recorded by forename only — no surname is printed, so this is a name and a role and cannot be told apart from another woman of the same forename by anything on the page.
1 of the 1 relationship drawn above is written in a register this archive has read with its own eyes.
Joined on a name alone. One household above could not be date-checked, because this archive holds no year for the person or for the household. Treat that link as a lead.

…would name both fathers at a stroke — «MKV 1770–1789» is on the reel but stops far too early, and the marriages of the 1830s and 40s are not on either film this archive holds.

It put eyes on every Defranceschi godparent in sixty years of the book — and «Mathea uxor Leonardi Defranceschi» alone stands a dozen times between the 1790s and the 1820s.

…third of its text. The clean run starts with 1709–1764. And then it was read. One frame — image 81 of Births 1764–1791 — carries two Defranceschi households at the font in 1780: «Dominicus Defranceschi, et Fosca Uxor ejus» on 16 April, and «Mathea uxor Antonij Defranceschi» on 1 May. The Atti article's Antonio of 1780 is a man on a page. Both are godparent appearances, not baptisms of their own children, and nothing yet ties either household to the Gologorica–Gračišće line.

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.
