Denise; Thanks for the reply. It is much appreciated. Others have indicated that they think it says Antonio Teixeira Machado as the father which fits with other information that I have. I will certainly make note of your translation.
Again, many thanks, Sam in CA From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Denise Sent: Wednesday, September 19, 2012 10:07 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Translation Help Hi Sam, not sure if anyone answered this but what I see is that Manuel Jose de Fraga son of Antonio Ferreira Medeiros and his wife Maria Isabel married on 22 April 1816 to Leandra Rosa do Coracao de Jesus daughter of Barbara de Jesus who is deceased. The brides name is in the margin. The grooms fathers name is abbreviated, looks like Fra Mds which I believe equals Ferreira Medeiros. Unless the Fra is for Fraga but since he wrote it out for the groom I would think he would write it out again. But not sure, I'm no expert. I hope this helps you.

J I'm pretty sure this is the marriage of my 3rd ggrandparents, Manuel Jose de Fraga to Leandra Rosa. I can see it says something about Leandra in the margin and I can see Manuel Jose de Fraga in the beginning of the document. Can someone please tell me what it says in the margin and is it indeed the marriage record for these two people. If it is, is her name and parents names anywhere in the documents.
