The mark describes the person, not the link. Of the 1 relatives drawn here, 1 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.

One more person found beside Nicolaus
Every one of these was read out of a parish register for this person — named in an entry that is about Nicolaus, or beside him in one. The family tree holds none of them, so that one cannot appear in the chart above. This is evidence standing beside the tree rather than inside it.
| Who | How they stand to Nicolaus | Read from |
|---|---|---|
| Antonius Gergacs parish register · not yet in the family tree | son of Nicolaus Gerkacs (ahnentafel 220), and therefore a brother of ahnentafel 110 | named in his father's death entry, 30 October 1783 · Karlobag |

Where this sits on the line
Ahnentafel 220 — generation 8 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 440 and 441.
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.

An online family tree is a witness, not a source. Where a citation points at a parish register or a FamilySearch image, that is the thing worth going to. Sources →
