I was wondering why they use that term instead of "filho de". Because within the same record two different phrases are used to indicate parentage.
Example: "foi padrinho Francisco de Sousa *filho familias de *Antonio de Sousa e forão testemunhas Manuel da Silva, sachristão, *e seu filho *João Gaspar da Silva todos desta freguesia". I was wondering if there is some subtle difference in the meaning between the two.
