  • Notes 
    • JACOBS OF GUATEMALA - NAMING CONVENTION.
      The unusual (by British standards) naming convention confused me until it was explained.

      In the UK when a Mr Jacobs marries a Miss Jackson the norm is that the family name will remain as Jacobs, or possibly Jackson-Jacobs, and this will remain so for their children.

      So their son, Louis would be Louis Jackson-Jacobs.
      When he married Isabel Jones the family name would normally remain Jackson-Jacobs, or more rarely, Jones-Jackson-Jacobs.

      However it would appear that in Guatemala the convention is different.
      Using the same example, the family name would become Jacobs Jackson.
      Their son, Louis would be Louis Jacobs-Jackson.

      However, when he married Isabel Jones, the Jackson (his mother's maiden name) would be dropped and the family name would become Jacobs-Jones.

      And so on..
