Ricardo, I have a feeling you are related to an extended family as they have the same names you list and same parish but I only have back to her father born 1941 from Nossa Senhora da Purificacao, Santa Cristo, Santa Maria, Azores. His wife is Chaves and he goes by that surname but I believe he was born a Cabral.
