Dano, JR has provided me with a ton of helpful information. I understand Shirley Allegre is responsible for much of the information he passed on to me. So thank you to Shirley, also.
I will put a gold star next to this leaf of our family with a note so that if I get stuck or need clarification again, I will know who to contact. Thanks for the offer.

However, I would like to chime in since Mariana is one of my ancestors. Her sister, Antonia da Trinidade, was my 5GGM. Also, Mariana's husband, Juzeph, is also an ancestor, as his uncle, Leonardo, is my 6GGF, the son of Manoel de Mello, and, Anna da Moura, of Santa Maria.. There is more info should you need it.

I have been looking on Panta Garca, VFDC, with no luck. I went back and reviewed her marriage record and a couple of her children’s baptisms. I am including the marriage record and a baptismal record that lists Marianna’s freguesia of origin separately from her husband. Baptismal record for Jonevusa – (I could use help with the spelling on this name too) is on the left side, bottom entry http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-VF-PONTAGARCA-B-1752-1760/SMG-VF-PONTAGARCA-B-1752-1760_item1/P21.html Marriage record for Jose’ de Mello and Marianna Furtada is on the left side, bottom entry http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-VF-PONTAGARCA-C-1675-1749/SMG-VF-PONTAGARCA-C-1675-1749_item1/P191.html It looks to me like the freguesia name is Myma but I don’t see that on any list of freguesia names. Could it be an alternate spelling for Maia? Thanks for the help.
