I finally found her first marriage record, but it's a bit damaged. At the bottom of the page (right side), is Maria Cardoso de Macedo's name and then the name of her father. I think it says João Gonçalves Lucas. I was hoping to get a second opinion. João Nicolas' information is almost all gone. Any help would be appreciated.
