Hi all,

When I checked out the Church records at the Newfoundland Grand Banks site
(where I found plenty of relatives!), I noticed the names ADDY, EADY, and
EDDY and they seemed to be used interchangeably. A birth might be listed
with the parents name as Eady, and then the next time as Addy. My question -
are these really all different names and people, variations of spellings, or
maybe hard to read when transcribed? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks!
