Yes, Jose Luis,
Please do send a scan through Ranchos so that we can all see what you are talking about. Even though Argentina is not in the area of the group, it will be helpful to all of us to see what you are dealing with, especially since we all view films with varying scripts and spelling of names. I have found that some of the names I deal with have been spelled with "B" instead of "V" or "Y" instead of "LL", etc. Priests long ago, say in the 1700's used script that is different in some letters or they tended to use the Latin Joseph and Carmel instead of Jose and Carmen.
I have been looking up the ethnic history of Argentina, and I find that Italians and Germans started immigrating around 1850 as well people from other parts of Northern and Southern Europe. I think the reason so many Italians and Germans moved there after WWII was that there were large communities of Italians, Germans, Syrians, Jews, etc already there. They say that 49% of the population now is of

Hi:
Just responding on the surnames .
. Neri is actually a last name that I have in my family tree. I also believe it is short for a first name. I will check my tree and get back to you. Janet

Emilie; you asked if you could have copies of the names I
am working on. Well, they are on a film and I will have to go to a machine that will do a copy. I think I can do a scan to you. I hope they come out OK because If I could discern the letters of the names, I would just write them as spelled. But, it is that I have never seen names like these before and am not sure that I am reading the script correctly. Some are very faint and so I am not sure what I am reading. Yes, Emilie, I will send you a copy as soon as I can get
into the Family History Center machine that does that. I can believe how nice it was of you to want to see what I am working with. There are some really nice people here, like you. Is the "Ranchos" site where you want the copies sent
? I will happily send them as soon as I can. I will use the same Subject for the copies so you will know that it is in reference to a request by you. These are names that I am positive on the spelling, have you ever run |

Joseph, Please accept my apologies for your email mistakenly being transferred to my "answered" folder when I indeed did not answer your second message. I am sorry about that. Yes, indeed, any contributor has the option of substituting/replacing an earlier contribution with a more up to date |

Jose Luis,
Would it be possible for you to send us a copy of that entry you just mentioned? I am curious to see what those entries look like.

Alberto; Many thanks for the comments on Italian and German names. I can see you are probably right. I am doing a church records of Baptisms for 1890 to 1900. It was cleaver of you to catch that. But both comments are of value to me because now I am more aware of the time line for the influx of German and Italian names starting in 1945 and later. The names I am running accross are so unique that they resemble a jumbled alphabet. I have been doing genealogy extraction for over 8 years and those are the first of this kind that I have ever seen in hispanic counties. That is why I was hoping for a telephone book for Argentina. I need one for Mexico soon because I think that will be my next assignment. For now I am trying to figure out a name that looks like "Useberlitano" or "Vsibrlijano" Altibucian, I think.
