Did any of these Cabral Mello's migrate to Urzelina, Sao Jorge? My 6th great grandpa is Domingos Cabral Mello b about 1693, Urzelina, Sao Jorge. Of course there are no records for the births or marriages of Urzelina in the time period I need. His wife is Antonia de Jesus b about 1698 in Santo Amaro, Sao Jorge. Their first child b 13 Jun 1728, Antonio Cabral Mello who married Dona Maria Bettencourt in 1753, Urzelina.

They were deteriorating then. Dec 1691 (that's all that can be read), a Manoel (surname unreadable), son of an unreadable da Costa(?), deceased, and Barbara Correia of Nordestinho married a Maria Cabral, daughter of a Caligto de (Macads) and a (Ursula) Furtada. That's the earliest I can find. The Nordestinho marriages start 1700s. So if Barbara married where she was from, you won't find the marriage in the film. That is, if it's the right Barbara.
