    3. Could be the 8 is for the 8th month. bug is puzzling but could be meant to represent August. Just a thought. Dorothy

    3. One also has to bear in mind that in 1739 the year started in late March, not January first as we do today. Therefore October really was the 8th month. -----Original Message----- From: Dorothy Walker [mailto:walker@gulftel.com] Sent: July 29, 2005 10:47 AM To: CARMARTHENSHIRE-L@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [Cmn-L] Latin entries in baptismal books Could be the 8 is for the 8th month. bug is puzzling but could be meant to represent August.
