Deep dives
Long studies, each of one set of registers or one proposition. They are linked from the Sources page too.
- The Sicilian Registers Nine annual indexes and six acts, hunting one man who is still missing.
- The Queensland Register The Registry's historical index is free, authoritative, and can be searched by a father's or a mother's name.
- Testing the 1697 The largest claim, eleven generations to Briatico about 1697: four of those generations rest on nothing, and are not testable online.
