Dear mcfariar, Barbara da Purificacao, who married Jose de Frias Bode, is my 3rd great-grandmother. Their son Francisco Joaquim, born 27 Sep 1825, is my 2nd great-grandfather. The only information I have for Barbara is that she was born in Santa Cruz, Lagoa. But she couldn't have been born in 1819 and have given birth in 1825. Barbara was Jose de Frias Bode's second wife, and 1824 sounds about the right time frame for their marriage.
Is it possible that the record you found was for someone else, possibly a niece or a cousin. I also have da Costa and Rego in that branch of my family tree. I think it's likely that we are related in some way.
