Hello Nancy, thank you for your input, where was that marriage of 1657? Santo Espirito or Vila? I am focused on the straight line for now just to see where I can go but I also have Mello, Carvalho and of Course Chaves that I found out it came from a marriage of my 5th Grandfater, and a few others that I will "dig" with time!
