You will have to be careful about linking all the Cabral de Mello's, especially if they are from different villages. I checked all these out a few years ago, and António Cabral and Barbara Correia are the end of the line as far as Achada goes. The Cabral de Mello line may indeed be linked to the older Cabal de Melo line in Nordeste, but there is no proof of this. Even if the citation of Maria Correia proves to be Barbara Correia, you are no further ahead, except that you have linked one more family to a known common ancestor. For more possible connections you will have to research the more dfficult civil and property records, the notarios, and hope to find a reference to this couple. Neither Rodtrigues nor Canto mentioned one, and Rodrigues in particular read al those notarios and that is why he regarded as great researcher. He tried to turn over all the stones.
Maybe I have forgotten Cheri, are you saying your Melo line goes back to this Achada line?
