I have a copy of Santa Barbara, Ribeiras, Pico Marriages 1774-1870 that were extracted by Jeffery Leal Madruga sometime before 1994 and there is no Jose Joaquim Madruga marrying a Maria Da Conceicao in the records.

A daughter, Maria Hortênsia was baptized in the parish of Santissima Trindade in Lajes on the island of Pico about 1853, so I have been looking at an LDS microfilm for marriages in that parish from approximately 1830 to 1860 without success. That suggests that they were married in another parish. According to the NEPS databases, the largest number of persons named “Madruga” outside of Lajes, is in Ribeiras. Is that still considered part of Lajes? Is that a logical place to look next? Note: Maria Hortênsia was married 12 September 1877 in Horta, Faial.
