I can’t find the word Padres nor the notation you describe in the document. Is it written or printed? Below the surname of the priest (Mata) there is a drawing which is the rúbrica, some kind of personal drawing which may be part of one’s signature. Nowadays many people use a rúbrica as their signature.

I’m sorry. I seems I provided the wrong link. Here is the link I need help with. The symbol is used under the titles Padres and Padrinos. I’ve never seen it before in my research and I wondered if it was sort like the ” ” when we mean “same as previous entry”. Thank you for taking the time to look at this.

Juanita,

No link was provided.

Sorry, some days I’m such an airhead.

Since the notation is below each given name and surname, it seems to me it is “id.”, which is an abbreviation of the Latin “idem” (identical), which as you guessed was used is like the ” ” when we mean “same as previous entry”.

Victoriano,

It is what I thought, but I appreciate the clarification.
