I've been researching my family in Sao Miguel for over fifteen years and I have many lines back into the 1600's. One in particular, the Rego Baldaia line, appears on both my mother's and father's side of the family. My problem is I'm one (two?) records away from connecting up with the known early Rego Baldaia settlers on the island. I was told some years ago by an "expert" that I do connect through a record in which the priest wrote the wrong name. Well, with that interpretation I could also be related to the Queen of England. Anyway, I got to thinking maybe I'm going at this from the wrong direction. Perhaps if I had the descendants of these early folks it would extend far enough into the early 1600's so I could then match up one or more to the records I do have. So my questions are, do these things exist in readily available form? Do they extend into the 1600's? Any suggestions? Many thanks, Dave
