Group, How popular was the name Emilia Amalia da Conceicao? Maybe a strange question to ask, but I have one, in my lines (born abt. 1860), from Povoacao, married to a Joao Furtado d'Araujo.
-Trevor Costa (ancestors da Costa Pevide in Furnas, Sao Miguel, and Camara Vieira in Capelas/Bretanha, SMiguel) <- is that what we should do? :) -----Original Message----- From: Herb <[email protected]> To: azores <[email protected]> Sent: Tue, Mar 18, 2014 10:23 am Subject: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Cabral/Pimentel and Da Costa/Pimentel Probably Cousins JR I remember from my earliest days on this site that we share common Cabral ancestors. Did you notice on the record Pam sent that the father's name appears to be Soeiro, instead of Soares. I know that sometimes Portuguese people do this with names, such as when for a female the name Brandao becomes Brandoa or Rapozo becomes Rapoza. You don't see it too much for males though. Anyway for this particular line, Pedor Cabral had a son named Jose, who married a Barbara Pimentel. They had a son named Manuel Medeiros ( where Medeiros name came from I have no idea). He was the father of my gg grandmother Emia Amalia da Conceicao Medeiros who married Joao Jacinto Brandao b.12 Aug 1855.

You will see that our ancestors used the names interchangeably. Not good one way, as it confuses people, but on the other hand, great because it expands your name base and and gives clues as to whom your ancestors are, when records are missing. So I think the record Pam gave you is correct. This Cabral line may be the same as mine. Not sure yet.

I will check that angle especially if nothing else turns up. Thanks a lot.
