Dear Wendy: Here is what I have: Manuel Pereira Branco and Maria Moniz (I do not have parents for them) are in "Genealogias de S. Miguel e Santa Maria" by Rodrigo Rodrigues. He lists the marriages of two of their children: 1. Manuel Pereira Branco married Maria de Jesus, daughter of António de Frias Resende (himself son of Francisco Vieira and Ana de Frias), in Fenais da Ajuda on 20 Nov 1779. 2. Duarte Pereira married Maria de Bettencourt (aka Maria d Paixão, b. 2-Sept-1720), daughter of Manuel Moniz Vieira Paixão and Madalena Soares (herself the daughter of Manuel de Roe and Maria de Arruda) on 29 Nov 1741. Duarte must have died before 1754 because Maria da Paixão married Custódio de Medeiros on 10-10-1754. There are no children listed from the first marriage but that does not mean there were none. Is either of the children of Manuel Pereira Branco and Maria Moniz you ancestor? If so, although I do not have the ancestry of Manuel Pereira Branco and Maria Moniz, I do have the ancestry for their daughters-in-law, Maria des Jesus and Maria da Paixão. Let me know if I can help. John
