I have in one family group from Piedade, Pico, that had a daughter named Rosa Maria born in 1765, there is no date of death or anything else that I know as of yet. In 1769 they had another daughter and named her Rosa Maria also. My question is would they have done this because the first Rosa Maria died very young? Or would it have been to honor the name of someone else? Or did they just like the name? I know it would help if I could find out more about them both and that it's not safe to assume anything but wanted to ask the question.
