Question about parent's name in birth records
Posted by: William Risch (ID *****6686)	Date: August 24, 2008 at 13:49:06

I recently located a Lutheran church baptism record in "Saaga." It has the following name registered: "Sep. Niggola Jurri p. Maddi." Is the first name of the child Jurri, or Niggola? Or is it Maddi? The surname is definitely Sep or Seppa. The church record is from Luganuse, dated 11 September 1742.

I have another such record, one for "Seppa Niggola n. Marri," dated 14 April 1742, from Luganuse. Is this Marri Seppa, daughter of Niggola?

Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated. It seems that the father's name comes before the child's name in many records, or it is at the very end of the name.
