Dear Arline, Thank you for clarifying that.....I didn't look in Dec. for Maria Emilia's obit.....I will though because I can't find any other births to them and Antonio married my grandmother in the US in 1888....so something happened during that 10 year span.....I found a Manuel Baptista coming into New Bedford in 1886....he was born Jan. 1878 and came here at 8 years old......I think it's Antonio's son but in the census that I found this information he was a border and 20 years old already. I can't find Antonio coming to this country or where he and his new family were in 1900.....I'll keep searching.....this mystery.....I thought maybe his first wife came to this country but I can't find her either.....
Best regards, Nancy To: [email protected] Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Ultimo filho Date: Fri, 8 May 2009 18:56:08 -0400 From: [email protected] Dear Nancy, I looked at the baptism record of Manoel, 1878, image 4. The baby was being baptized in February but was born LAST December. It says "Decembro ultimo". Of course there is no comma after "ultimo" so the next word is "filho" causing the confusion. He is not the last child, just a legitimate child born last December. Arline Silveira in Grover Beach, CA Hi Cheri, I thought that perhaps if the mother died in childbirth that it was clearly the final progeny of that couple. The one for "Manuel" is Topo Baptisms 1878 page 4....Jose son of Antonio Teixeira Baptista and Maria Emilia..... Nancy A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above.
