Re: Father's paranthetical name

["Arturo Ramos" <arturo.ramos2@...>]

I had run across this before with another record that I must have not 
gotten a copy of and if I remember correctly, I think your first 
theory is correct Jose.

In this record, Jose Maria Miramontes appears as the padrino later in 
the record, along with his wife.  I think that what happened was that 
perhaps the padrinos went to baptize the child without the father and 
the sacristan must have written down the wrong name on whatever he 
was recording on and then the priest corrected the record when he 
wrote it into the book?  Is this the way the process works?

In the other record, the grandfather is erroneously listed as the 
father (in parenthesis) and then appears as the maternal 
grandfather.  I think that once the priest started writing out the 
whole record, he must have run across the conflicting information and 
corrected it, but left in the paranthetical name to match the 
original information that was taken at the actual ceremony...

The baptismal record is from 1907 in Totatiche, Jalisco.
