Greetings all,
I've spent a quiet , rainy weekend researching my mothers maternal and
paternal lines simultaneously since the records are intermingled time wise in
Velas. I've had some measure of success with some new discoveries. My Antonio
Jose de Sousa Pereira married Isabel de Jesus da Silveira...her father was my
ggggrandfather, Manuel de Avila Teixeira who was the son of Jose Antonio da
Silveira and Maria de Jesus, daughter of the other Manuel de Avila Teixeira and
Beatriz Maria. So he was named after his maternal grandfather of the same name.
Also, Jose was the son of Manuel Machado Fagundes and Joanna Baptista.....(this
makes me wonder if my parents are some kind of cousins way back there)....not
sure where his da Silveira came from. It would be impossible to trace these men
by surnames!
However, I need some help with a name on a record from my mothers maternal
side......I've just discovered that my de Lemos line has roots in Norte Grande
(Poderosa) and also back to Fayal! These people also used maternal surnames!
One of them is Quadros.
My ggrandmother, Francisca Rosa de Lemos was descended several generations
back from Joao Jose da Silveira and Anna Bernarda Poderosa, Joao Jose was the
son of Antonio (Alves?) de Quadros and Joanna Maria de Resurrecion......I need
help reading Antonio and Joannas marriage record.......
Velas marriages...1734 to 1772...page #116, record #676
Antonio is the son of Domingos de (HABREO?) and Luiza? Gularte from Rebeira,
Flamengos, Fayal !!!
(my first Fayal ancestor to date)
Joanna is the daughter of Joam de Quadros (abbreviated name?) and Maria Machado
of Velas (Beira)
Does anyone connect or know these people and could you please help me with the
names that I can't read on this record?
Thank you,
Nancy Jean Baptista
