A made family chart, not a register.
6 of the 9 relationships drawn above are written in a register this archive has read with its own eyes. 3 come from a FamilySearch index entry — a transcription, not the page.
2 households were rejected before this chart was drawn, because the dates do not fit a person of this name: Domenico De Franceschi × Mattea Delcarro (1859) · Stefano De Franceschi × Bonetta Vellico (1819–1829).

This archive holds 2 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.
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.
