Legacy (v. 9) has a Christening event/tag. RootsMagic has a Baptism event/tag/fact. I don't know what Family Tree Maker has. Or Reunion. Since a couple of them have a baptism or christening, I would think that the others do too. It's a workaround. Or the "about" or "circa" or "before" as well.

Yes, the problem is most genealogy programs do not allow users to create a primary field that is not a 'birthdate'. I use the same about field/designation you just outlined. Since the 'abt' (about) date is exact, it makes the reader wonder why the author would use an exact date and still use

Hi Walt, My genealogy program has a Baptism tag (some program calls them events). So I enter the baptism date into the baptism field and leave it at that. The first time period doesn't record the birth dates. Cheri Cheri Mello Listowner, Azores-Gen Researching: São Miguel island: Vila Franca,

Cheri, I know you must have this information at the tip of your tongue and it would take me a lot longer to try and find it in one of your helping aids. During the time period where the birth date is not given in the baptism record and you only have the baptism date, what do most people do about

Justin, I am afraid I have not been doing much genealogy these last couple of years.  I do not manage a kit on ancestry.  What tree are you referring to?  I have my info on family tree dna.  Some of my cousins may have some on ancestry.  I have an ancestry kit but have not done it yet.  Just

The "adulterer" term isn't used as in today's definition. Basically, one (or both) parties were married. I have one record in my family where Francisco was single, Maria was married to So-and-So. Francisco and Maria had a baby. Francisco was listed as the adulterer. By today's definition, Maria

While they both translate to hidden, as in refuse to name; oculto definition includes not known. Could that be the difference? On Fri, Mar 8, 2019 at 9:31 AM Leonor Bertoni wrote: > Hi Sam, > I have wondered about all these terms as well. I have found that when the > priest says

Leonor; In this case, no father was mentioned but; the husband’s name was listed as well as the fact that he had been away for over 300 days so, I think it truly means, “adulterer”, if I’m spelling that correctly. Sam (Mazatlán, MX) From: Leonor Bertoni Sent: Friday, March 8, 2019 10:31 AM

Hi Sam, I have wondered about all these terms as well. I have found that when the priest says "adulterina" he usually also mentions a father. Someone once told me that it meant that the baby was conceived before marriage or the couple were not married at all. On Fri, 8 Mar 2019 at 12:12, 'Sam
