Thank you, Shirley, I appreciate your help on this. I've been searching for the children of Joam and Isabel and also for Joam's obit which I found. I could certainly use some help with the record. I think it says he died August 13, 1797 and was 63 years old. I hope someone will confirm that for me. Also, usually there's more information in the record regarding occupation, number of children etc and I can't seem to see any of that. Could someone tell me the other information held in the record? It can be found in VELAS OBITS FOR 1790-1800, PG. #0072, jOAO DE SOUSA CARDOSO MARRIED TO ISABEL DO ROSARIO. Thank you for any help, Nancy Jean ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ From: shir...@digitalpath.net To: azores@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Please!
