I’m not sure but the top record looks like she was left at the door of the 
people named.  The second item says that the parents came forth and declared 
who they were.  It also looks like they were related in the 2nd degree of 
consanguinity.  I was confused that the 2nd item came right after the top one, 
but I looked at other records of prior abandoned children and the priest put 
only one record on a page perhaps anticipating the bio parents might come 
forward at a later date.  There is a date on the left hand margin of item #2.  
Is that the date they came forward?
