My husband and I, along with cousin Terri from Toronto, have been researching Vila Franca do Campo ancestors for several years. We have received a great deal of help from many on this list. In preparation for another trip over this summer, we are trying to get our research ducks in a row, so that we focus on the most important gains to be had during our visit to the Archivo.
We hit a road block on one lineage a couple of years back and are at an impasse. We thought we would post the line just in case anyone new has joined the group, or anyone else has found additional information. Here you go: Manuel Jacintho b 15 Oct 1862 - Matrix - Vila Franca do Campo father - Jose Jacintho b 26 Nov 1826 - Matrix - Vila Franca do Campo PG - Francisco da Costa b abt 1793 - San Pedro - Vila Franca do Campo (1819 marriage record says he was 26 years old) PGG - Andre da Costa d 9 March 1833 widower (Maria dos Santos) We have a lot more detail than all of this, but we are really stuck in not finding Francisco da Costa's or Andre da Costa's birth although we have combed San Pedro over and over, along with the Matriz. During this same period there are several other records of Andre da Costa married to Maria Margarida. They have overlapping children so we are thinking this is another Andre da Costa, not a second marriage. Thought we post this just in case it strikes a new chord for anyone. Thanks very much. -- -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. Follow the confirmation directions when they arrive.
