Margaret, It could very well be marrane. It's hard to read the ending letter (or two!). I would look for other baptismal records of his children and see if it comes any clearer or maybe another priest's handwriting will be clearer!

I will note is as mariante, for now. "marrane" is the early portuguese word for new christians. Thank you again Nancy and JR for your feedback. mv On Sat, Apr 10, 2010 at 4:39 PM, JR <[email protected]> wrote: Yes it does look misleading. But I have seen it before. I think it is mariante, which is the old mareante, which is indeed the same as marineiro- a seaman or fisherman.
