The other archives
The Blažević Archive is one of seven, each following a different line of the
same family. They use the same method and the same five words for how sure a thing is.
- The Defranceschi Archive Istria · Kvarner · Carnia A family written down under eight sovereigns, in four languages, and spelled at least nine different ways. Defranceschi · De Franceschi · Defranceski · Defrančeski
- The Falco Archive Arienzo, near Naples Nine documented generations born, married and buried in one valley, and then a migrant ship to Brisbane. Falco · Zampiello · Morgillo · Crisci · Liguori · Maione · Rivetti · Annecchino
- The Booyzen Archive Graaff-Reinet · Cradock · Johannesburg A Cape Dutch family that kept marrying British women, changed one letter of its name in a war, and came off the train at Johannesburg with nothing. Booyzen · Booysen · Kolbe · Barry · Downing · van Jaarsveld · Schoeman
- The Lerena Archive Rosario · the Cape · the Rand A horse-dealer out of Argentina, a stable under Table Mountain, and four family traditions tested against the record rather than repeated. Lerena · Taylor
