Hello, Tom. Nancy is a pet form of Ann - but your problem is that, like Agnes (pronounced Annis and often spelled that way till comparatively recently), Susanna or Susannah has the sound "ann" within it. Susanna (lily) comes from "The Book of Susanna", in the Apocrypha; Ann, oddly enough, isn't in the *Concise Bible Dictionary*, but I'm sure that I remember her from Sunday School as Mary's cousin, as in the paintings of St Ann and the Virgin. I think that an attempt to turn a Nancy into a Susanna could only end in tears, but if I were in your situation I'd definitely print the Nancy record and file it for future reference. A sidelight: I often find Nanny as a name in Cornwall, but Nancy only rarely. And an afterthought: I have a Susan Ann MILL (born in Australia; parents from Illogan) in my family who is also recorded as Susanna. Perhaps in Cornwall they did mix and match like that. Phoebe
