Sam, The word after 4th degree is 2 words: de consanguinidade. He ran the "de" into "consan" which is then continued on the next line. They are 3rd cousins.
The date in the middle after the Lord Bishop's name is 63. He misspelled 60 (cesenta instead of sessenta or sesenta (another misspelling or old spelling)). See your date in the top line of the document. I'll think about those occupations after the names of the fathers. I have an idea they are day laborers.
