From: Margaret Vicente <[email protected]> Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] attn JR re Ponta Garça "de Matos Brandão" To: "azores" <[email protected]> Date: Thursday, June 17, 2010, 9:26 PM Hello Group and JR, I have traced my maternal grandfather and grandparents from Agua de Pau to Ponta Garça. My 5xgrandmother is Margarida de Matos de Oliveira daughter of Joao de Matos Brandão and Antonia de Oliveira. Margarida de Matos de Oliveira married Antonio Jose de Medeiros (from S. Miguel, Vila Franca) on 17-Sep-1775 in the Parochial Church of N. Sra. da Piedade in Ponta Garça. Does anyone in the group connect with the Matos Brandão family? Thank you.
