Hi Cheri, Since that line you're referring to is actually government information that I imported, I can't say I had verified it before. However, from thegovernment decree<http://www.dre.pt/cgi/dr1s.exe?t=dr&cap=1-1200&doc=19803116%20&v02=&v01=2&v03=1900-01-01&v04=3000-12-21&v05=&v06=&v07=&v08=&v09=&v10=&v11=Decreto%20Regional&v12=24/80/A&v13=&v14=&v15=&sort=0&submit=Pesquisar>that created (in 1980), it does say it broke off from S. Miguel, so you're right on the 'mother parish'.
And yes, that line specifically mentions that it already had parish records since the 1839. Apparently when they created the civil parishes in 1910, that one was forgotten, and they only noticed 70 years later. Still, what I meant to say is that in the alphabet 'R' comes before 'S'. So I expect that one to come up before S. Miguel Arcanjo.
