Sažetak
The author initially talks about the first mention of Višnjan and the foundation of the parish when it separated from the parish of Motovun. He cites several facts from the oldest church visit in 1600, and provides information on the parish area. He lists the surnames and places of origin for the population settling in the area of the parish of Višnjan, as well as basic data on the keeping and the preservation of registries, and on their location (Višnjan Parish Office, Registry Office in Poreč, and State Archives in Pazin). He talks of the importance of registries for local history, compares the number of births (baptisms), weddings and deaths for the period between 1815 and 1873, and lists the baptismal (1865-1904), marriage (1875-1913) and the deceased (1873-1910) charts. He particularly refers to the data extracted from the registry of the deceased, then cites all the infectious diseases that appear in the books of the deceased, highlighting the great cholera epidemic of 1855, for which he specifically presents a chart with all the relevant data. Information on various other causes of deaths (murders, suicides, miscellaneous deaths; lists of victims of accidents, as well as a list of women who died during birth giving) is also provided, as well as a chart of deceased children up to the age of seven (1873-1910). In the end, the author provides four appendices: (1) deaths of children up to the seven years of age, in order of the age of the deceased, (2) the changes of surname into Italian form during the Italian administration from the Baptismal registry 1865- 1904, (3) Wedding registry 1874-1914, and (4) surnames arranged by localities within the parish (based on the data from the registry).
