In parts of my family, if your cousins were old enough to be your aunt and uncle, you called them aunt and uncle. So this "aunt" may be a title only as Eileen stated.
Linda J needs to find the baptism of Leonor in Sao Sebastiao in Ponta Delgada on Sao Miguel island. Not just any Leonor on any island that kind of seems to fit. Maybe then the "aunt" story will make sense. Then again, maybe not. But since her paper trail has so far pointed to S.Sebastiao in Ponta Delgada on S.Miguel island, she needs to look there. If I were researching George Washington, who was born in Virginia, I wouldn't go looking for him in Massachusetts. Sure, I'd probably find one, but it's not good genealogy practice to go jumping states when everything points to Virginia.
