David,

It's interesting what you found about the parents of the single mother Maria do Espirito Santo.
It isn't stated in the marriage, but when Francisco married, he might not have known it was to a cousin.
They are related in the the 3º e 4º grau de consanguinidade. Common ancestors are Bezerra.

Sheri,
 
I found the baptismal record for Francisco Jose Dutra. He was born on 4 Nov 1865 in Sao Matheus, Praia, Graciosa and baptized on 5 Nov 1865. His mother is listed as Maria do Espirito Santo, and she is a native of Santa Barbara (Ribeiras), Pico. The father is listed as unknown. Maternal grandparents are listed as Jose Pereira and Maria do Espirito Santo. They are natives of Santa Barbara (Ribeiras), Pico.
 
I am attaching the baptismal record I made a copy of at the Family History Center.
 
You can find more info going back on the maternal grandparents Jose Pereira and Maria do Espirito Santo on the University of Minho website in the Lajes do Pico, Ribeiras section.
 
On the website link, the mother of Francisco Jose Dutra is presumably the youngest child of Jose Pereira and Maria do Espirito Santo, born 25 Jan 1820.
 
Hope this info helps, and let me know if you have any other questions.
 
        David

I need help reading a name from a birth record which I have attached.  It is #5 which begins at the bottom left hand side of the page and continues at the top right.  The name of the child is Regina.

The name of the father is Francisco______________ (I cannot read what comes after his name)
The name of the mother is Maria da Gloria

I can't make out the name of the Godparents either.

I think I have been able to pick out that Francisco is from the Village of Praia on the Island of Graciosa, that his mother is named Maria Espirito Santo.
The parents of Maria da Gloria are Manuel Machado and Maria Isabela.

Thank you in advance for help in reading this document.
