Hi, I came across a marriage record dated 1878-July-15 a for Maria Santa de Betencourt in Rosais, Velas. Daughter of Manuel da Silveira da Cunha and Maria Joaquina. Do you have Maria Santa's husband's name? The groom on this record is 50 years old, single, Manuel Jacinto Miguel. His parents are; Miguel Antonio de Sequeira and Ana Vicenzia? dos Anjos.
