I am a descendant of a Francisco Raposo and Maria de S. José from Bretanha. However, he was from Ginetes and I believe that she was from Relva. I am on vacation and do not have access to my genealogy materials right now. I will have access in about a week and will get back to you. If it is the same couple then we are `cousins´. The Lindo Cabrals are definitely from Bretanha. I have them in my data base. Before the first years of the 20th century all records were kept in Ajuda. After that, Remédios and Pilar were became suffragan parishes of Ajuda with their own set of books. Today, the Freguesia da Bretanha is Ajuda only. Pilar and Remédios are separate Freguesias and Paróquias. I hope this helps. John Miranda Raposo
