Noted

The name Josephum

The tree saysJosephum
The record saysJosephus — and the priest wrote the accusative himself

The register reads nomine Josephum. That is the priest's own Latin, not a modern transcriber's slip: Michaël Kombol writes nomine followed by the accusative in every entry on the page — Mariam, Joannem, Matthæam, Magdalenam, Nicolaum. The tree copied the register faithfully and inherited its grammar. Read it →

A grammatical artefact, not a name

He was not called “Josephum”

The tree recordsJosephum
Which isthe accusative of Josephus

These registers are narrative Latin. A priest writing baptizavi Josephum — “I baptised Josephus” — is writing a case ending, and filius Josephi is “son of Josephus”. Transcribed literally, the ending becomes the name. In life this person was Josephus, or its Croatian form. All forty of them →
