Attachment to this family

The tree saysWife of Michael Žubrinić; mother of Nicolaus (b. 24 January 1834)
The record saysBorn 8 September 1835 — twenty months after her supposed son

Her baptismal entry is real and hers: Otočac 1835, entry 41, daughter of Marcus Orešković adoptatus Sekula and Lucia née Sekula of Dubrava 29. The transcription is right and the attachment is wrong. Nicolaus's own 1834 entry names his mother as an Orešković, but an earlier one, still unidentified. Six further ancestors hang below this join. Read it →

Corrected against the register

She is not this child's mother

The tree saysMother of Nicolaus Žubrinić, b. 24 January 1834
The record saysBorn 8 September 1835 — nineteen months after him

The Otočac register of 24 January 1834 enters Nicolaus as the legitimate son of Michaël Xubrinich and Maria uxor ejus nata Oreskovich — a married woman bearing a legitimate child, nineteen months before Maria Catharina was born. Her own 1835 baptism names the same parents the tree gives her and places her at Dubrava N° 29, so she is a real person married here to the wrong man. The join is kept and marked rather than severed, because a wrong join is itself a finding and the only pointer to where the right Maria Orešković should be looked for. Read it →

The mark describes the person, not the link. Of the 10 relatives drawn here, 3 have a document of their own in this archive — but that is not the same as a document tying them to this person. This archive holds no separate proof for most parent–child links; where it does, the note above this chart says so in words. 5relatives are named in the tree but fall outside the eight surnames and have no page.

Where this comes from

this archive has shown something recorded about them to be wrong.

4 images are attached to this person , of which 4 are documents rather than photographs.

2 corrections and notes have been recorded against this page — set out above, and listed on What changed.

Where this sits on the line

Ahnentafel 21generation 5 of Hedviga's descent. Every person's father is twice their own number and their mother twice plus one, so this person's parents are 42 and 43.

The register spells this surname more than one way, and the search folds the forms together — so Xubrinich and Žubrinić, Joannis and Ivan, find each other.
