Hello Group-- I am researching my mother's paternal line (Madruga) from Freguesia of Lajes do Pico on the island of Pico. My question is, since I was not brought up Roman Catholic, would there be any microfilm record anywhere on the reading or posting of the banns? The church was Santa Trindade. To obtain the record, if there is in fact public access, would Joao Ventura or anybody else be able to help me? Does anyone in the group have any suggestions?
