Hi Mary: You mention Antonio X Constancia. I have 104 Antonio de Mello X 106 Constancia de Jesus. Also: 234 Antonio do Rego Barbosa X 235 Constancia Rosa.
If my brain is working properly, I believe that Ribeira Quente is close to Ponta Garca. From what I can remember, there used to be a narrow path from Ribeira Quente to Ponta Garca. Therefore, people would have their children in Ribeira Quente and baptise them in Ponta Garca. Antonio (1759- pre 1851 is my #234. He was born in Ribeira Quente and Baptised in Ponta Garca. Anyone correct me if I am wrong.

I may be related to the same Antonio & Constancia. I matched Shirley Allegre on Family Finder and after many months we figured out that we shared common ancestors: Cipriano do Rego (1729-1782, Ponta Garça) and Antonia Barbosa (1725-1792, Vila Franca and Ponta Garça). I'm related to their daughter Maria de Jesus Rego or Barbosa (1760 - before 1828, Ponta Garça). My records show that Cipriano and Antonia also had a son Antonio (1759-before 1851, Ribeira Quente) who married Constancia Roza de Jesus (b. 1766, Ponta Garça). Is that the same couple? Does it make sense that some children would be born in Ribeira Quente and some in Ponta Garça? When I use the "in common with" feature on Family Finder for Shirley, we don't have anyone else in common. My grandfather was the relative born in Ponta Garça, so maybe I don't have enough Azores DNA to match others. I hope I am related to this line!
