Yeah, and when they name kids Senior and Junior.... and then more are born......what do they do with the next "junior?" And if Senior #1 dies, do they all move up a peg, and get called something different then??? Too confusing....... -----Original Message----- From: quebec-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:quebec-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of repage@aol.com Sent: Wednesday, January 20, 2010 10:44 AM To: quebec@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [QUEBEC] Strange marriage entry - Pierre CHORET 1686 In a message dated 1/20/2010 12:07:36 AM Central Standard Time, momsmith@fnwusers.com writes: That is very unusual, to name two children the SAME name!!!

Bob, they would usually name a child by the same name only if the first one died. As they wanted to have a name stay in the family so much that if one boy died the next boy would take that name.. I have one who died while she was carrying another. He died in January and the other was born in August and a boy again so there the name came back.. Normally the boys would all get Joseph and the Girls would get Marie with one or two names after that, but not usually in the same sequence.. Anyway that's my two cents.. Good Luck.
