Sam, Yes I have noticed that. I kind of think the bride sometimes took her mother in law’s name as a means to be accepted into the family better.

It just makes me worry that the priest has been “tippling” the vino… I know certain names were very common but; it seems to be more than that…. Just wondering… Sam (Mazatlán, MX) <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=emailclient&utm_term=icon> Virus-free. <https://www.avast.com/sig-email?utm_medium=email&utm_source=link&utm_campaign=sig-email&utm_content=emailclient&utm_term=link> www.avast.com -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Azores Genealogy" group.
