Here is what I have. I am sure you have the line of 6 and 7. They are in Rodrigues. I was never able to find the baptism of Rita in Ponta Garca because that is a period when some of baptisms were omitted or destroyed and the priests recognized this by post entering some names, declaring that they were baptised in that time period. Some were left out, especially if they did not marry.
