Hi everyone, Marcia (on this group list) and I have been working hard to try and confirm if an ancestor of ours could be one in the same even though on two different records, his birth year is different and the mothers name is slightly different. Could this be possible?
Francisco da Costa, son of Andre da Costa and his wife Maria Margarida, born 30 June 1797 bapt 7 July 1797 in Sao Pedro, Villa Franca do Campo, Sao Miguel Island. and then a Sao Pedro marriage record we found 22 August 1819, has a side note that says Francisco da Costa 26 years old ( The 1797 birth record would make him 22 years old ) son of Andre da Costa and Maria dos Santos marries Claudina Maria 20 years old, daughter of Franciso de Souza and Antonia Joze. The difference in the mothers name could be acceptable but what about the difference in the birth years? Insight anyone? -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected].
