- Richard De Franceschi — dates unknown, Brooklyn, Kings County, New York, United States
Born 2 December 1932 — and that date is deliberately not printed as his. He would be 94, no death is recorded anywhere, and this archive gives a person who may be living a name and a town and nothing else. The date is in the document and stays in this sentence as the document's statement rather than as his dates. Named as the child of Bruno de Franceschi and Gerda Seedorf de Franceschi on their declaration of intention 284221, Brooklyn, 1939. He is the only person on that paper with no birthplace recorded, which fits a child born in the United States to parents who were not yet citizens. ⚠ Not to be confused with the Richard Defranceschi already on this roster from David's MyHeritage tree**, who carries no dates at all: nothing joins the two but a forename, and that is how five women called Maria came to share one infant's burial.

This archive holds 1 other page 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.
Appears on: Lives on one scale
This person has not been written up in an essay yet — most often read straight off a register page that no index anywhere contains. What is known is at the top, and the pages linked above are where the finding sits.
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.
