10 Year Index doesn't match to Record

Post by rp76226 »

For Torremaggiore, in the 10 year death index, Antonio Rubino died in 1894, record # 92. Here is that link:

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903 ... cat=124484

When I went to record # 92, the death record was for a different person. Here's the link:

Where can I find the death record?

Both of these links are the same. They both go to the death record. Neither goes to the index.

Always remember the creating of a 10 year index (without a computer) involves, taking each single year index which may or may not be in alphabetical order, and merging it with 9 other years. The margin for error is great. If you know the year of death, forget the 10 year index in this case and go straight to the annual index.

Thanks. I don't know the year of death. I just know that Antonio Rubino, husband of Filomena Gentile, was alive for his son's Felice Rubino's wedding to Antonia Cicerale on December 13, 1891 in Torremaggiore, Foggia (his wife was deceased). The real problem with the 10 year records is that instead of listing each comune separately and apart from each other, they are all combined together and for more than one province, and not in any logical order such as alphabetical by comune. The same is true for each individual year. Never saw anything like this and consequently it is much more difficult to wade through this mess.

The index shows 1893 as the year of death!

The Antonio Rubino who died in 1893 (#92) in Torremaggiore was age 5 years.

Tessa is correct. I had found the 5 year old's death so he can't be my Antonio Rubino. I've given up on it. Too much time spent already going through these byzantine records. Was trying to help out a distant relative.

FYI - I checked the death indices from 1894 through 1903 - and viewed all the deaths for an Antonio Rubino that were recorded in those years. None of them is the widower of Filomena Gentile.

Thanks, Tessa. He must have either lived a long life or moved to another Comune. Did you discover any type of common "logic" as to how those records on the index and also by individual years were organized by Comune first, and type of event second?

I did not use the 10-year index. I went to the index in each year. The records are mostly grouped (Nati, Matrimoni, Pubblicazioni, Morti) by comune, and the comuni are in alpha order (generally).

The only possibility left is to find Antonio Rubino's parents would be to find his marriage record to Filomena Gentile. We think their oldest child was Felice Rubino and we think he was born in 1861. We think Antonio was born about 1830 (from unverifiable Ancestry.com hints).
