Has anyone come across B.O.M. on Gro birth index? I have been looking for a birth and found one with surname and forenames but these were followed by B.O.M and then the district & ref numbers. Does anyone know what this means? Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks, Gillian now sorted - szee below |

Could it just be initials of other forenames.? If it is not a living person, perhaps you'd like to post the details so that we can look. Gwyn |

If you google abreviations them look at the different sites there's loads of different meanings for BOM. I had a quick look and some of the ones that might (!) suit are Book of Morrmon By other means Bombay Board of Monitresses Sorry , with so little info its hard to know if any of these make sense. |

Thanks for your responses and of course the simple answer was the correct one - it is his other intitials! I established this by finding births of other siblings and they all have a combination of B O M as additional names or initials. Thanks again for your suggestions regards Gillian |
