[Lingtyp] head-initial double-marked possessives

Even non-Amerindian Spanish in Central Mexico uses the construction "su
papá de Sara [her dad of Sarah]". A large amount of mestizos in Mexico City
use it, not to mention mestizos in other minor nearby cities/towns.
Hope it helps.

I need one last example of the 6 possible final/intial | head/dependant/double/no marked patterns for a slide in my typology class. I can’t seem to turn one up anywhere.
