Their first names don't usually change. If any changes to their name was during confirmation. What mostly likely happen was a mistake by the priest writting the record or couples with similar names. Can you paste the link to Joao de Azevedo Machado marriage record and any children. (you can you send it directly to my email adress)

I am look for Manual d'Azevedo Machado who is married to Maria Isabel. Parents of Joao d'Azevedo Machado. I was looking for Joao's baptism when I came across Ana Isabel. That led me to ask about first names being changed. On Thursday, November 1, 2012 12:31:02 PM UTC-4, Eddie Machado wrote:I am actually looking for Maria Isabella. Parents of Joao d'Azevedo Machado.

One wife, mine, is Isabel Maria and yours is Ana Isabel, I believe. I am at work at present and don't have my data in front of me but I do know that I had to trace both families to keep them straight. It's so easy to get them confused. To make matters worse, when you go to the marriages there are 3 marriages of people with similar names. One, can't remember which, even has the Priest writing a note in the margin about the mix ups! I will try to send you what I have on your line when I get home and can figure out how to send it from my PAF program. I know that I have a list of the kids with spouses. I don't have all of the marriage dates for them but the names at lease. Rosemarie Hi all, > > Does anyone know if there were instances of mothers changing their 1st > names? Say from Anna to Maria?
