Hi Henrietta, I have been reading the PROCLAMAS of the marriages of Porto Formoso to find out the dates of the marriages that “were lost” from the Archives. Also I have found a message from you, in rootsweb, looking for José Pacheco Barbosa. Is this the one? I hope so!
D M A O Contraente Pai Mãe A Contraente Pai Mãe OBS 15 10 1823 José Pacheco Barbosa, *bPF28.3.1795 Manuel Pacheco Barbosa Luzia Inácia de Jesus Rosa Maria, *bPF29.3.1801 José da Costa Josefa do Espírito Santo Henrietta Mayer? PS – The date is the one taken from the Church authorization to be married. >From my experience the marriages took place within a week, sometimes even in the same day… who says they were not well organized? LOLOL - *bPF = date of baptism and place of baptism, in this case PF = Porto Formoso. eliseu -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected].
