I have Herminia's in my tree and they are female first names. Most seemed to go by "Minnie"
From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Laura Fitzpatrick Sent: Monday, May 11, 2009 10:16 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] The name Herminia and the Neps.ics site Hi Pat, Thank you for the link, http://www.neps.ics.uminho.pt I have not been online much due to family illness/death but I had a look at this site after reading your post. Astonishing what I found. Previously I had never been able to find anyone I was looking for on that site. My question is this. Who inputs the information on that site? How accurate have you found the information to be? Does the information come from actual records? The reason I ask is I cannot read Portuguese so I don't know where the information is coming from. I would kind of like to know before I take what my families history comes across as gospel. Also does anyone know if the name Herminia is a surname or a woman's first name ( as in Maria or Julia) in Portuguese. Thank you so much for your help.
