In tracking down a Mary Guiterra in the USA, I've concluded Guiterra is likely an Americanization of Quitéria. Mary was born on Flores, most likely in Santa Cruz das Flores and likely in December 1854. I think she emigrated under the simple name of Marie do Céu (de Ceu) in 1873.
I believe Manuel Rodrigues Quitéria and Sebastiana de Jesus had a daughter, Maria, born in late 1854 in Santa Cruz das Flores. It looks to me as the last baptism of the year 1854: http://www.culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/FLR-SC-SANTACRUZ-B-1842-1857/FLR-SC-SANTACRUZ-B-1842-1857_item1/P184.html Would someone please help me make out Maria's birth date and parents' names?
