Cheri I am not familiar with the type of document that they may have neede but the June 1st is the date of a document "alvara matrimonial", actualy google is giving ti a good shot because I would have translated as a "warrant of intent to marry" That document was drawn up by Cesar da Silva the Secretary of the Eclesiastic Judge and signed by the " Muito Reverendo Ouvidor" Eclesiastic Judge Jose Leal Furtado. I can only gues that they may have needed such a document because her previous husband had died in Brasil. I may have missed it but I saw no mention of bans. The part at the bottom does not translate too well verbatim but here is my version: The betrothed were received by me and united as man and wife following all the accepted rites of the Holy Catholic Apostolic Roman Mother Church with the blessing of the ring. The witnesses were.... Kind of round about, but I hope it helps From: [email protected] Date: Sun, 2 Feb 2014 21:49:37 -0800 Subject: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Marriage of Carvalho Pimentel and Avila from Conceicao in Horta, Faial, 1881 To: [email protected]
Yes, I saw that they are not related and their ages. And the bride is a widow. What I'm interested is that 2nd date on page 2. It says June 1st and Google translator is giving me "charter marriage." I don't know if this is the correct translation or not, and if it is, what that means. There's also some extra info after the bride's parents, near the bottom of the page. I've never encountered that either. Thanks!
