…In 1679 a list of village headmen recorded, at Mione: «Zuane De Franceschi con un suo fiolo, Zuane d'Erman: questi tre nell'Istria, luogo imperiale» — a De Franceschi of Mione with a son, working in Istria, in the imperial place. Carlo De Franceschi, writing about 1873, said the family had come from Carnia and settled in Istria «intorno al 1700», and that De Franceschi were still living at Mione and Muina in his own day. They still were in 1939. Monsignor Lucio Soravito de Franceschi was…

…into Istria from the sixteenth century; another is a carpenter and the rest are farmers, which is the ordinary spread of a mountain commune. And third, the name they gave a son born at Mione on 15 October 1810 was GIOVANNI BATTISTA — the name of the man Carlo De Franceschi said built the family's house at Gologorica in 1711, and the name of the farmer of house 5 at Gračišće born in 1787. Zuanne De Franceschi Maria Delli Zotti The earliest of them. Zuanne is the Venetian form of…

…at eleven in the morning on 30 December 1809, and presented to the registrar by the midwife Speranza Salante — who was, by the marriage act, her own maternal grandmother. documented One name in that chain is worth stopping on. Carlo De Franceschi, writing to Kobler about 1873, said the house at Gologorica was built in 1711 by his trisavolo «Giambattista del fu Leonardo» — Giovanni Battista, son of the late Leonardo. And here, in the Carnian village Carlo said the family came from, is an «Antonio qm.…

…was born on the 25th of May in the year 1789, as appears from the Book of Baptisms. That pushes the Mione family back one more generation, to a GIOVANNI BATTISTA DE' FRANCESCHI who was already dead by 1789. And it means that both of the names Carlo De Franceschi gave for his own ancestors — Giambattista, and the Leonardo who was Giambattista's father — occur in the eighteenth-century De Franceschi of Mione: a Giovanni Battista dead before 1789, and an Antonio son of the late Leonardo. Carlo said the family came…

…«dal Ginut» is how a Carnian village actually identifies a family, and this archive has never had one for a De Franceschi. The trade of the head of the house in the nineteenth century is «tessitore contadino» — peasant weaver — which is precisely the trade Carlo De Franceschi's own book says sent the men of the Ovaro parishes down the road of the Furlans into Istria as cramars. And in the wife's ancestry stands the surname ERMAN — the family named alongside Zuane De Franceschi in the 1679 list of men working in the imperial part…

…page has said since it was written that the headmen's list of 1679 is the only document showing the movement from Carnia into Istria at all. That is no longer. Giovanni Kobler, going through the civic records of Fiume in the 1870s, wrote out for Carlo De Franceschi the Defranceschi households of that city — and his second entry reads: «Valentino Defranceschi, venuto dalla Carnia, fu fatto Cittadino nel 1739.» Come from Carnia; made a citizen in 1739. With his wife Elena he had ten sons and four daughters, a house in…
