my grandfathers obituary Rene Jean Borel showed 1 brother and 2 sisters. When I got his birth certificate, He was born 11/22/1885 & it showed he was a twin ( fraternal) the other baby was named ( Marie Felicite' Borel) In he and his brothers obituaries, they both have the 2 sisters named in it. One is Marie & one was Felicite. So I would natrally assume that Marie would be his twin. But would it be common to name a second born female the middle name of the first born female ( The 1st girl was born 1885). I have a theory that perhaps the female twin died & the mother named her next 2 females from the 1st & middle name of the dead child.I have no proof of this so I must assume the Marie in the Obit was my grandfathers twin. At some point, the mother died & the children were put in an orphanage. My question is, Not really knowing if the twin died, how can I get records on her death with out a date ( if she even did die at birth) Also I have the 2 sisters marriage names in the obits but how can this help me with out dates of marriage. I want to know if this marie is his twin. I have a feeling she is not .
