Cheri,

Sorry to correct you on this, but if she was raised by her aunt, her 
parents can't be that unknown... 

Anyway, the baptism for this Leonor states the following:

Date of baptism: 15-11-1863
Date of birth: 2-11-1863
Name: Leonor
Father: Manuel Silveira (Maneca?)
Mother: Claudina Augusta
Paternal grandparents: João Pacheco & Maria Josefa
Maternal grandparents: Claudio Joaquim & Joaquina Claudina
Godparents: Francisco José (Correa?) & Maria Josefa

It does say that the parents are not married, which would make sense if 
they later gave her to a relative to raise her. And that they are all 
residents and baptized in São Sebastião.

Linda, you need to find some data on this aunt of hers. What was her name? 
Was she married? To who? Did she have children? When did she die? Without 
that, even if this is the right Leonor you'll never be sure.

Regards,

João C. Ventura
