Subject: Marilla, Fidesta, Abriella
Author: Jonathan Clift   (guest, 116.91.39.48)

I've recently been researching some family that was in Ohio in the early 1800s. The family consistently uses bizarre names like Marilla, Fidesta, Abriella, and Beulah to name their female children. I haven't been able to find out much about these names. Perhaps they have a certain religious background?

Thanks,
Jonathan
