It may mean nothing. Do you have the original confirmation records? Is the
handwriting the same on all of them? If not, the
pastors who kept the records may simply have had different ideas of what
was im****tant. Even if the same pastor wrote all the
records, he may have revised his priorities and started writing more
information. Lila

> Hi list,
> During the early 1800 timeframe I have a family where the parents
were married in 1809 and they had 4 children. On three
of each child's confirmation is listed their birth date, but on their
first child's confirmation no birth date is listed. All four
confirmations were found in the Barkhausen Parish books and consider
Prussia at that time. Their second child was born in
1813.
> Why was there no birth day listed on the first child's
confirmation? Is one possibility that the mother was pregnant when
she married in 1809?

> Any comments are appreciated.
