Hi everyone, its me again. I contacted Mr.Ramos and he said he did not find Narciso Coelho Borba and Rita Candida da Silva on the Vila Nova indice. I figure maybe they are not from Vila Nova, but I know for sure their daughter was. So I went to pg.azores.gov.pt and looked through other towns and found a marriage record of Narciso Coelho da Rocha and Rita Candida da Silva in Altares. They married in 1873. The record also stated she was from Vila Nova.
Could this be the right one? On Oct 4, 11:09 am, onemst <[email protected]> wrote: > Interested to find your family also migrated to Brazil.
