Gio. Maria De Franceschi

…1828, house 366: Michiela Damiana, daughter of the late Domenico Pastrovicchio and «della vivente Veniera De Franceschi q.m Gio: Maria», marries at twenty — and the witness is «Cristoforo De Franceschi fu Gio: M.a, Agricoltore», her uncle. So Gio. Maria De Franceschi, dead before 1818, is now shown with three children — Pietro, Cristoforo and Veniera — none of whom has a baptism on any film this archive can reach; the register found them by naming their dead father the same way three times across ten years. Also…

…widow's second wedding names her grandfather. 25 June 1830, house 483: Veniera De Franceschi, widow of Domenico Pastrovicchio, remarries at forty-nine — and because a widow's remarriage is written out in full, the clerk records her parents: «Gio. Maria De Franceschi fu Pietro e Michiela Zambaletta fu Cristoforo». The father who has been a bare name since March 1818 now has a father and a wife of his own, and the Vodnjan line stands five generations deep off this one unindexed book, back to a marriage of the…

…Cattolica· d'Anni 40· Vedova Testes — + Gio. Batta d'Ambra, fabbro + Antonio Bellicaglia di Giovanni, muratore A whole generation arrives in six lines. Pietro is forty-two, so born about 1776 — and his father Gio. Maria De Franceschi is already dead, which carries the family in Vodnjan back into the middle of the eighteenth century, well behind the register's own first page. He is a widower: there was a first wife, Veniera Franzin, daughter of a Domenico Franzin, and she died…

…and «Gio Maria De Franceschi × Lucia Bonassin» is one of the households this archive reconstructed out of the baptism register months ago, with four children between 1822 and 1831. So the household now stands four deep, off a single page:· Gio. Maria De Franceschi — dead before 1818· Pietro, born about 1776; married Veniera Francin, then Lorenza Tesser in 1818· Gio: Maria, born about 1799; married Lucia Bonassin on 9 June 1821· and their four children, 1822–1831 And it retires this…

…Manzin fu Dom.co, Agricoltori «q.m Gio: Maria» — the same dead father as the Pietro who remarried in March 1818 at forty-two. So Cristoforo is Pietro's brother, and the eldest line in Vodnjan now has two sons in it instead of one:· Gio. Maria De Franceschi, dead before 1818· Pietro, born about 1776 → his son Gio: Maria, married 1821· Cristoforo × Maria Luigia Manzin q.m Domenico → his daughter Michiela, born about 1800, married 1826 And here is the trap this parish sets. There…

…February 1828 — widow of Domenico Pastrovicchio. Her daughter is twenty, born about 1808. And standing as witness at that daughter's wedding is Cristoforo De Franceschi fu Gio: Maria: her own brother, at his niece's marriage. So the children of Gio. Maria De Franceschi, dead before 1818, now number three:· Pietro, born about 1776 — remarried 1818, father of the Gio: Maria who married in 1821· Cristoforo — agricoltore, married to Maria Luigia Manzin, father of the Michiela who married in 1826·…

…she married her daughter off, Veniera De Franceschi buries her husband and marries again at forty-nine — and because a widow's remarriage is written out in full, the clerk names her parents. That single line does more than any other in the volume. «Gio. Maria De Franceschi fu Pietro e Michiela Zambaletta fu Cristoforo». The father who has been a bare name since March 1818 now has a father of his own and a wife. So the line in Vodnjan stands five generations deep, entirely off this one unindexed book:·…

…register gives eight households 1816–1865; the marriage register — which FamilySearch has never indexed — was read opening by opening and produced the line itself. Five generations, from a Pietro who stands behind a marriage of the 1770s, through Gio. Maria De Franceschi and Michiela Zambaletta, to their children Pietro, Cristoforo and Veniera and their grandchildren married off in the 1820s. A second, separate line runs from a Domenico. At least four De Franceschi women married out of the name before the register opens.…

…page. Read the widows' entries first A first marriage names the couple. A widow's remarriage names her parents, because the clerk has to establish she is free to marry. The deepest generation this archive reached at Vodnjan — Gio. Maria De Franceschi fu Pietro and Michiela Zambaletta fu Cristoforo, a couple who appear in no baptism register on any film — came out of their daughter remarrying at forty-nine. If you are scanning a marriage register for depth, the widows are where it is.…

…households between 1816 and 1865. The marriage register has never been indexed by anybody, and was read here opening by opening. What came out of it: a line five generations deep, from a Pietro standing behind a marriage of the 1770s, through Gio. Maria De Franceschi and Michiela Zambaletta, to their children Pietro, Cristoforo and Veniera and the grandchildren married off in the 1820s. A second, separate line descending from a Domenico. Four women of the name married out before the books open — Domenica,…
