Dear Margaret, ???? The record begins with the words "to whom I gave the name Francisco" which tells me that the dates of baptism and birth are on a previous page. Usually, the baptism date is given first and then it says "naceu" and gives another day and then might say "same month and year".
???? The "first of the name" is simply the first child to be given the name Francisco. There may be other siblings already. Many times when a child dies, the next child is given the same name and it would say "second of the name". The mother's name is Bernarda Candida. There is only a godfather, no godmother. Best Wishes, Arline Silveira of Grover Beach, CA Hello Group, ? I'm having trouble discerning certain information in the baptismal record from Film # 1330813 # 134 Francisco attached for your reference.? ? I can't discern the following, re FRANCISCO: ? date:? 4 July 1868? is it birth date or baptism? Legitimate son (primeiro do nome) does this mean he is the first child? of Francisco Vicente and ??????Candida.? I'm unable to read mother's first name ? I?read he is the paternal?grandchild of: Jacinto Jose Vicente x Maria de Jesus and maternal grandchild of Francisco Rodrigues x Maria Joaquina.? ? The godfather was Jose Rodrigues and I can't make out the rest. ? Can you help, please? ? Thank you. ?
