Abstract

In the November 1992 and May 1993 Kickshaws, Peter Newby wrote of a transaddition ancestry where each woman gave her daughter a name which was a transdeletion of her own, "I" being the end of the line. At least so he says, but, if they named their daughters that way, Brenda Eva Nellie's mother was not Brenda Elvira Rene!
