Does anyone have any information on or is connected to a Captain
Miguel de Souza de Athaide? He was born around the 1670's-1680's. His
wife was Maria de Mello. They lived in Luz, Graciosa. I have his death
record, which was 2 Mar 1754, but no marriage or birth record. Any
information would be helpful. They had 6 children-Manuel Espinola,
Antonia, Joanna, Joao, Jozefa, and Manuel de Souza. I wonder if there
are records/documentation of when someone was appointed to a certain
military rank of some sort.
Thanks,
David
