I asked the CCA why they haven't yet uploaded the rest of the records for Conceição, Horta and got this terrible news:
The
early baptisms and marriages records of Conceição, Horta, were not
scanned because of its bad condition caused by the use of the ink
ferrogálica, as we say in Portuguese. This ink destroyed the paper.
I gave them the idea, in case they hadn't yet thought of it themselves, that they can scan the Mormon microfilms at least to have something online.
So until they do something else about it, the earliest records for Conceição are only available on LDS film.
