⭐⭐ His row was two tree years. He is now a «Signor» with a house, an age to the half-year, and — probably — a second roster row. > 8. · Sig.ʳ Giovanni Pietro Defranceschi, N.º 36, d'anni 86½ — 1781 (doc — DAPA ZM34K-214, M01069216: the Gologorica obit calendar, under 8 September.) Died 8 September 1781, aged eighty-six and a half, which puts his birth about March 1695. This row carries 1695–1781 off a family tree, and the register index agrees with both to within a season.

⭐ His row was a surname, a place and the year 1701 off a family tree. He now has a day, and a book. > 30. · Pietro Defranceschi — 170— (doc — DAPA ZM34K-214, M01069217: the Gologorica obit calendar, a perpetual index of the parish's dead by day of the year, opened for the first time on 9 October 2026.) He died on 30 September. The archive did not have a day for him. ⚠ THE YEAR IS NOT CONFIRMED AND THE TREE IS NOT BEING USED TO READ IT. At eight times the figure is «170» followed by a faint upright with a dot, beside the same scribe's unmistakable 1750, 1752, 1782 and 1788 in the four lines below. The decade 1700–1709 is certain. The final digit is not. The tree's 1701 is consistent with the page and is not confirmed by it, and that distinction is kept because this archive was wrong about single characters twice today. ⚠ And which Pietro this is, is inf. The archive holds a second Pietro of Gologorica, born 1695 and dead 1781. A death in the 1700s decade fits this row and not that one, and nothing further is claimed. ⚠ No age, no house, no parents. The calendar gives a day, a name and a year, and for many of its entries not even a house number. The register it indexes would give the rest.
Corrected 13 September 2026: the year 1817 was carried here as a birth year and cannot be one. This person is a parent in the household «Pietro De Franceschi × Maria Malusá» (1816–1824) at Vodnjan, the same place the row itself gives, and 1817 falls inside the years that household was bearing children. It is a first-appearance date, not a birth.
Corrected 13 September 2026: the year 1819 was carried here as a birth year and cannot be one. This person is a parent in the household «Pietro De Franceschi × Maria Malusá» (1816–1824) at Vodnjan, the same place the row itself gives, and 1819 falls inside the years that household was bearing children. It is a first-appearance date, not a birth.

⚠ Correction, 28 September. This row was written up yesterday as a child of Valentino × Helena, the Carnian who came to Fiume in the 1730s. It is not. That couple's children run 1737–1757, and Pietro's act names his mother as Ursula, not Helena. Pietro is a child of the LATER Valentino — Valentinus Defranceschi, born 1775/76, who married Ursula de Berzoni at Fiume on 6 October 1793 (1:1:6YBR-ZFPR). Baptised at Fiume on 10 April 1803. Right family, right port, wrong generation — which is the error this archive spent yesterday cataloguing in other people's work. Read on FamilySearch, 28 September 2026.
Right man's name, right town, wrong century — by eighty-one years. 1:1:6B47-X6Z1 is the baptism of Pietro Defranceschi at Fiume on 10 April 1803, son of Valentino and Ursula. The row carried 1884–1957, copied from this archive's own graves data. Another child of the Valentino of Fiume, and with his mother's name — Ursula — which work list 143 did not have.

This archive holds 12 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.

…1773 rests on the tree's year and nothing else, and was published as inf for exactly that reason. A death entry for him in this calendar would make it doc. --- ⚠ The one reading taken so far, and what is wrong with it «Pietro Defranceschi» under 30 September is the first Defranceschi found in this index, and the archive holds a Pietro whose only property is the year 1701.

…1700–1709 is certain; the final digit is not. The tree says 1701 and that is consistent with it, which is not the same as confirmed by it — and this archive spent today being wrong about single characters in both directions.

And yesterday this archive identified that man as «Sig.ʳ Giovanni Pietro Defranceschi, N.º 36, d'anni 86½», dead 8 September 1781 — born about March 1695.

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.
