Just found out my grandmothers full name EUPHEMIA GERTRUDE KELLY No wonder she opted for Phebie, am sure her personality compensated for her parents cruelty in naming her as such... |

If you have Erasmus then you must have some Dutch influence in your family. Sylvia xxx |

Do Jewish names and names of people who weren't actually christened count? She asked pedantically... My Dad's middle name was Levi, which is a Jewish name, but the GR geneologist informed me that Protestant non-conformists used Old Testament names too! |
