What the archive knows

A son of Jacobo, and the register had never named him until now. 19 July 1784: «Zuanne figlio del q. Giacomo de Franceschi contrasse li primi sponsali con Antonia figlia del q. Antonio … ambi di questa Parrochia … interrogati dal Molto Rev.do D. Agostino de Canavia» — film 005497886, frame 96, read at 2.2×. Witnesses D.n Benedetto Fiorenza and D.n Antonio Zambrasio. (doc.) ⚠ «figlio del q. Giacomo de Franceschi» points at a household this archive holds — and at a problem it has already recorded. The castle's Giacomo is Jacobo de Franceschi, fl. 1737–1752, whose page is titled «at least two men» for the good reason that the baptisms cannot be made to fit one. Pascasia is his widow, remarrying in 1765; their daughter Antonia marries as «figlia del q.m Giac.mo» in 1779; and here a son of a dead Giacomo marries in 1784. So Zuanne is not placed under a father — he is placed against an unresolved pair. This archive says only that he is a son of a Giacomo de Franceschi of this parish who was dead by 1784. Which of the two, or whether the two are really two, this act does not decide. (The parentage is doc; the household is not assigned.) He is the first son of that name-and-parish the marriage register has produced. Its daughters were already known; no male child of a Svetvinčenat Giacomo had yet been seen marrying. Born about 1755 — estimated from the marriage, and consistent with a family whose known daughter was born in 1747.

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.

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.
