Jesse, can you give some dates or approximate dates for the people you
mention. My husband's maternal grandmother was born in Rosario,
Lagoa, Sao Miguel and I have some names that are the same as yours;
however, without dates, I can't really tell if they are a match.

Hi everyone. Once again I am posting about a family I have
mentioned previously but with new information behind me, which
has, as always, brought new questions. I will give some background
information first to leave out any room for error.
My great great grandmother was Maria da Resureicao d'Andrade.
Since this branch was estranged from my family, all of my
information on them is from my own research.
I can confirm that she was born 2 Apr 1888 from her SSDI record; I
can confirm the death is hers from the obituary I found. From this
information, I learned that she was born in Lagoa, SM, and her
father's name was Antone (Antonio) Andrade and her mother was Mary
Rose Moniz. Incidentally, Maria R.'s eventual mother in law was
named Rosalina. It is that fact that gives me reason to believe
that confusion may have occurred.
With the help of Maria Moore from the list, I located a baptismo
in Rosario, Lagoa, SM for a Maria born 2 Apr 1888 to Antonio
d'Andrade Caggarinho and Maria Jose. Although "Jose" is very
different in sound from "Rose," they are only one letter off; I
believe that there was a mistake, somewhere along the line, and
"Jose" may have been misread by someone having "Rosalina" in mind,
possibly a grandchild who had never known their grandparents who
remained in the Azores. This is only my theory.
What the theory does not explain, though is the "Moniz" surname.
The earliest record I have of Moniz is Maria Resureicao's marriage
record, where her mother is listed as "Maria Moniz" and her
mother-in-law as "Rosa Luiz."
I have traced the family four to five generations back into the
Azores, and this is Maria Jose "Moniz's" lineage:
Maria Jose born 15 Apr 1853 to Manuel de Botelho and Elena do
Espirito Santo.
Manuel de Botelho was the son of Joze Botelho and Luzia Ignacia,
the paternal grandson of Joze Botelho and Secilia Medeiros, and
the maternal grandson of Estevao da Ponte and Jozefa Pacheca.
Elena do Espirito Santo was the daughter of Antonio Jacinto (no
"surname," just Jacinto) and Maria dos Santos, the paternal
granddaughter of Joao Bento and Francisco Pereira, and the
maternal granddaughter of Antonio Fereira and Thereza dos Santos.
Nowhere in the lineage is a Moniz (or a Luiz, though I'm pretty
sure that has nothing to do with the family) and I am wondering
where it may have come from. I am wondering if Maria Jose's father
Manuel Botelho may have become Manuel Botelho Moniz at some point
in his life, but I have two of his casamentos and he is just
Botelho on both. I haven't been able to find his obito yet; he was
born in 1797 in Agua do Pau, so I think the records are available
for me to look online.
I wanted to post about this first, though; does anyone else have
any mysterious names like I do, or did I have a mistake in my
research and this family is not even mine? I have been extra
careful about that with this family since I had so little
information of my own, so I hope that's not the case!
