Senhora da Conceicao) ......on the 25th day of February 1827. Regarding names: Ana is modern day versus Anna older pt writing, whereas surname Breta may have changed to Brito or de Brito currently, others in the group may wish give input on this. Portuguese writing evolution dropped the double letters as they were phonetically unnecessary and only extra writing so they were dropped as the language continued to evolve... ;) smart people : ) Enjoy!
