Indeed, one discovery leads to more paths to explore!

It was Joao Brum Santos Macedo, which is the name shown as father on my 
grandfather's birth record.  The change was to Joao Brum.  The Santos was not 
used by his ancestors but was for at least 2 of his children.   Now I'm 
wondering if that note is on all his children's records.  Always something more 
to do!

This is the first time I have seen this. It is possible that the priest made a 
mistake when writing that record and changed the father's name. Later he needed 
to mend this and went to Court.

An example: my paternal grandmother is Emília Cândida Gaspar. On my father's 
birth record his mother is listed as Maria da Conceição, who actually is his 
paternal grandmother. If this would be an issue, we would need to mend his 
birth record.

Since his father died in 1921, any clue as to why they would have changed his 
name 22 years later?

Funny,  my mothers last name was Santa. They put Santos on her birth so I had 
it changed to Santa.   I can’t find where it started for sure because it was a 
nickname.  No Santa Portuguese.  Last name was supposed to be Silveira
