Boteho [Vicar Boteho] ================================ The Presbyter Guilherme Vieira Botelho, vicar of Nossa Senhora d'Ajuda, of Bretanha, island of São Miguel, diocese of Angra V. I certify that in the book of baptism records of this parish of this year of 1895, page 6, number (18?), you will find in the following context: On the twenty-fourth day of the month of March of the year one thousand, eight-hundred & ninety-five, in this parish church of Nossa Senhora 'Ajuda, of Bretanha, in the district county of Ponta Delgada, diocese of Angra, I solemnly baptized an individual of the female sex, of whom I gave the name of Rosa, and who was born in this parish at 10 o'clock in the morning, on the 15th of the current month and year, legitimate daughter, first name of Francisco Tavares, a farmer, native of this parish, and of Maria da Conceição, a seamstress and native of Santo Antonio, received in this parish and [are] parishioners, residents of Canada do Pico of this parish, paternal granddaughter of José Tavares and of Maria Jacintha, and maternal [granddaughter] of Manoe d'Arruda d'Oliveira Cabral and of Rosa de Jesus. The godfather is José d'Arruda, single, farmer and the godmother is Rosa de Jesus, widow, a proprietress, all of which was said I know to be true. And for this record of which I drew up in duplicate form after having been read & confirmed before the godparents who cannot sign for not knowing how to write. What is written above is true. Origario João José Norigueira(?) Bestowed faithfully its own original to which was replaced. And for the record I have sign. Bretanha, 8th of October, 1911. Vicar Guilherme Vieira Botelho. I recognize the signature above which I attend. Ponta Delgada 9th of October 1911. Of this 50 reis. E__ E.L. de __ The Notary Another unrecognizable name maybe over the seals on the bottom.
