Mariam Gerkacs (Gergacs)
1789–1834 · Karlobag, Ličko-senjska županija, Croatia
Surname
| The tree says | Gerkacs (Gergacs) |
|---|---|
| The record says | Gergacs |
The Karlobag register for August 1789 reads Mariam natam pridie ex Michaele et Lucia Gergacs. The register's spelling is Gergacs; Gerkacs is the secondary form and the tree carries it first. The entry also gives her mother as Lucia — written over a struck-out name — and her father as Michael. Read it →
Birth date
| The tree says | 11 August 1789 |
|---|---|
| The record says | August 1789, born the day before baptism — consistent |
The entry says natam pridie, born the previous day, and sits in the August 1789 sequence after the entry of 9 August. That is consistent with 11 August but the scan does not itself carry a day number; the exact day comes from the index, not the page. Read it →
He was not called “Mariam”
| The tree records | Mariam |
|---|---|
| Which is | the accusative of Maria |
These registers are narrative Latin. A priest writing baptizavi Josephum — “I baptised Josephus” — is writing a case ending, and filius Josephi is “son of Josephus”. Transcribed literally, the ending becomes the name. In life this person was Maria, or its Croatian form. All forty of them →
