Eadem (eade*) - Latin term included in the 1500's Christenings Lancashire UK batches (and applies to other projects that include this word) means'the same day' ie: When adding the christening day to the batch if the following record notes eadem or eade this will mean that the baptism was also performed on the same day as the previous record.

Also when a record shows childs name then moth (= mother) followed by residence, then date, then next line shows a name and pater soppo (= supposed father) so should be indexed in same record as the childs father.

Hope this helps others if not already known to some indexers
