Dear Michelle, ???? Here is my translation. Jose son of?Antonio Muniz da Silveira and Dona Rita Gregoria, he native of this matriz of Santa Catharina of Calheta and she of the parish of Santa Barbara, Manadas, both living here, born on August 6, 1848 and baptized on Aug 28, 1848. Godparents were Jose Maria Carvalhal, son of Jacome Jose Carvalhal and Anna Gregoria, daughter of Joao Machado da Santos of Manadas.
There are lots of Faustinos from Sao Jorge. The birth dates are sometimes the first line of the record and sometimes several lines down. No set rule. Depends on the priest and the time frame. Arline Silveira in Grover Beach, CA Hello everyone, Could someone help translate a record for me. It is located at: http://pg.azores.gov.pt/drac/cca/biblioteca_digital/SJCCB1848-1860/SJCCB1848-1860_item1/P11.html ...bottom right hand side...Name is Joze, father is Antonio ???? I'm trying hard to translate them myself but the writing is so hard to read. Was wondering, I'm finding in this section the name Faustino a lot. Was this a common name in this area? Also, where is the year of birth normally displayed? Thank you ever so much for your help.
