Thank you Margaret and Dano. Unfortunately, what you've read is what I
read which leads me to the very question Dano brought up. Namely, everyone
has Belchoir's father as Gaspar yet this record has Joam. Over the years
I've been told various reasons for this including the one mentioned, "the
priest wrote it down wrong" which I also find unsatisfactory. With that
interpretation I could make myself the Queen of England. Another
suggestion was that Clara was married to Joam and in other years, she was
married to his half brother Gaspar, again with no evidence. It's a puzzle.
Thanks again, David
