Hi Tish,

I read the document and it says he is (second of the name) which means he is
a second child of the same name, most likely because the 1st Jose passed
away.  It was a common practice to name the next child after the one that
died.  It happened in my ggp there are 4 of the same name because the first
3 died.

It is not a duplication of records but actual baptismal records for 2
children.

Hope this helps, let me know if need a complete translation.

Cheers,

Margaret Vicente
