Re: [ranchos] Re: Father's paranthetical name

Commonly in the case of erroneous write in the manuscript records, the information that appear between parenthesis is a error then, next to the close parenthesis (or between rows), should appear the correction; in this case: "Telésforo Gutiérrez" is the truly father of the principal. In other cases, I had found some corrections to the erroneous data with the "digo" word to meaning that the previous word, or words writhed in the record are bad, and the word or words next to the "digo" is the correction.

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. --- In ranchos@yahoogroups.com, jose munoz <jmunoz2781@y...> wrote: > > A "WILD GUESS" only... > From personal experience my opinion is: > > Jose Maria Miramontes was a probable padrino > erroneously mentioned before the baptized legitimate > parents... thus ( ). > > Jose Maria Miramontes could of been the father, died, > and the viuda remarried prior to childs birth. > > Jose Maria Miramontes may have been related to Maria > Guadalupe De Luna.
