HI, Also read on one of the mail liste recently
- that some families favour a particular name -
and give that name to all their children - but
use a different middle name - by which the child is known.
* I helped research a family - a number of years
ago - could it already by 10 years ? -
which sent me on a wild goose chase -
Parents James [Joseph], Julia, Nicholas, Anna,
Hannah, John, Anastasia [Nancy], Catherine, William.
Finally the Census - and I found the family !!!!!
- but some of the birth dates didn't match with
some information that I had previously been given.
The birth years of the men were 7 years apart.
The wives a few years different. The other
children - all born aprox the same time frames -
one Catherine born in January the other in April.
of the same year.the William s born two years apart.
Two Cousins - with the same given names - both
married Julia's - all named their children
according to the paternal family pattern. Both
had children of the same sex - in the same
pattern /time frame. Utter confussion.
There had been a break in the family -never
really resolved - when one disapproved of the marriage of the other .
It Happens.
Cheers, Stella
