Thanks John.
I notice some parishes use more abbreviations than others. Most of the ones I have worked with up to now used very few. Santo Antonio (alem Capelas) makes the most sense. And that is the place I am searching. I notice that some families moved around between Bretanha, Mosterios and Ginetes. This Antonio Aguiar is named being baptized in several places. This birth record is the earliest that names Santo Antonio as his baptismal parish. And a Happy Thanksgiving to you also.

There are two S. António parishes in S. Miguel, that I know of: Santo António (além Capelas) and Santo António Nordestinho. The one near Capelas had a suffragan chapel, Santa Bárbara do Monte, which is today a separate parish. To confuse things more, there is also the parish of S. Bárbara near Ribeira Grande. My guess is that one in your record is probably S. António além Capelas, Lugar do Monte (Santa Bárbara) but again, I have not actually looked at the record. Happy Thanksgiving!
