Da Trindade - Trindade was discovered by da Gama (Portuguese) in 1502 an island belonging to Brazil. I would say it's a surname. Though Trindade in the religious sector stands for trinity - three persons; father, son and holy spirit.
I have Josefa da Trindade m. Joao Furtado m. 15.2.1756. Josefa b. 18.1.1734 in Sao Roque, Rosta da Cao, Sao Miguel. Maybe some connection there.

Hi Linda: What time period would da Trindade be? I can't find the parents for my MANOEL FURTADO X MARIANNA DA TRINDADE.. Their first child, JUSTINA DA PIEDADE, was born /bapt. 21 Feb 1775, in Sao Miguel Archanjo church in Villa Franca do Campo, Sao Miguel, Azores. I am guessing that MANOEL was born/baptised 1740-1750 in the SMA church in VFDC; & MARIANNA was born/bapt. about 1750s in Sao Pedro church in VFDC.
