Joam is an earlier spelling of Joao. There was a time period when you would see both spellings for the same person depending on who wrote the document.
Rick Richard Francis Pimentel Epping, NH From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Paul Sent: Wednesday, February 25, 2015 1:44 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Joao/Joam The names of one set of my 6X great grandparents is Joao Ignacio & Marianna Francisca. I have been trying to find their daughter Francica Rosa (5X ggm) and any siblings baptismo records and have noticed a few records listing the father as Joam Ignacio. Just wondering how often (if any) they were switched?
