Santa Maria, Sao Pedro Church
Dear Shirley:
I originally posted about a family from Sao Pedro in Santa Maria. His name
is Manoel de Mello (b. abt 1754 died before 1797) X Francisca dos Anjos. I
found them through the daughter's marriage certificate. Her name was
Francisca Maria, b. abt 1777 in Santa Maria island. However, at some point she
moved to Sao Miguel since that's where her wedding took place in the Apostolo
Sao Pedro in S. Miguel (to Pedro Carvalho). The marriage certificate states
this daughter, Francisca Maria, was baptized in the Santa Maria parish of Sao
Pedro.
I had posted the above info in hopes that I might find a connection.
I received Email from Dano with info regarding an "earlier" Manoel de Melo X
Anna de Moura. He's the one in your line and Cheri as well.
If you don't have the string of emails, let me know and I will send them to
you.
Regards,
Maria Elena in Wisconsin

Some of my other MELLO lines are from Santa Maria. I have the films. They
are a mess. They sort of look like confetti.
Will one of you please tell me which one of you descend from Manoel de
Mello X Anna da Moura. These are my direct ancestors.
I have them married 1687-1691 possibly in Santa Maria, Azores.
Their first child that I have is my 1907 Maria de Mello. She was from Sao
Pedro church on Santa Maria island.
Manoel X anna are my 8th grgrandparents.

Hi Dano:
My 6GG, Manoel de Mello, was born in Sao Pedro, Santa Maria. He
married Anna da Moura, abt 1687, also in Sao Pedro, Santa Maria.
Manoel and Anna moved to Sao Miguel with several children, ca 1700.
They settled in Ponta Garca. Your Manoel may be descended from this
couple.
Thanks for your reply, Dano,
It would be great if this were the same Manoel. I'm trying to "make it
fit" but having trouble with the time your Manoel left Santa Maria in 1700 for
Sao Miguel and the birth of "my" Manoel's daughter in 1776-ish in Santa Maria.
I wonder if any of your Manoel's "several children" returned to Santa Maria
and had descendants there?
Do you have any names of the "several children" that were born in Santa
Maria and moved to Sao Miguel around 1700?
I've been told the record for the Sao Pedro church in Santa Maria are
sort of in pieces. I haven't ordered them yet. Did you have luck researching
that microfilm?
Fortunately, I found six children born to Francisca Maria and her
husband Pedro Carvalho and their birth certificates might shed light on where
exactly Manoel de Mello was from. It just said he was deceased at the time of
his daughter's wedding in 1797. Manoel's wife's name was Francisca dos Anjos
and that their daughter, Francisca Maria, was baptized in Santa Maria's S.
Pedro Church.
The Sao Pedro parish from Ponta Delgada where the marriage took place has
Indexes, including Obituaries. Maybe this will give me a clue as to where
Manoel was born.
Kind Regards,
Maria Elena
