.
Note that the children seem to be named for or in honor of their sponsor,
.
not directly for any family ancestor or relative (except perhaps Maria
.
Magdalena and Lenhart and Philip), as was the German naming convention
.
of the time - otherwise it is a big coincidence and they all WERE named
.
for family members back in Germany !!
.
Note that given names were originally in German but then adapted to the
.
British/English equivalent so that either is found in records :
.
Maria/Marie = Mary; Catharina = Catherine; Elizabetha = Elizabeth;
.
Jurg/Georg = George; etc. Also, the "demunitive" of the given name was
.
used so that Elizabeth = Lisa, Lizzie, Beth; Johan = John, Jon,
.
Jonathan;Catherine = Kathy, Kate, Kitty; etc.]
