The year is 1790 and "de tarde" means "in the afternoon". Many records state if the marriage was in the morning on in the afternoon

Here's my question: I cannot read for sure if he was married in 1790 or 1798 or something else. The words "de tarde" could be something else maybe part of a number. The reason I keep wanting it to be more like 1798 is because his first child is born in March 1798 and then 1801 and other children being born up to 1808. If he was married in 1790, then, that would mean he didn't have their first child until 8 years after they were married and that sounds very unsual. Doesn't it? I don't know what was happening in Sao Miguel in those years, military, or natural disasters, whatever. Thanks for taking a look at it.
