It looks like Manoel Vaas/Vaaz to me. Shirley in CA ----- Original Message ----- From: Fred Estrella To: Azores Genealogy Sent: Saturday, April 19, 2014 10:25 AM Subject: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Help with Marriage Record
Hi Dano, I guess I'm on a roll but I've found the marriage record for Manuel Mota and Ana Rodriques from 1620. And it gives Manuel Mota father's name although I'm not sure what it is (Manuel Voas or Voaz or something else).,,can you make it out? It's on the right side of page at top. Interesting that they did not list the mother's names, http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-PD-SAOPEDRO-C-1617-1657/SMG-PD-SAOPEDRO-C-1617-1657_item1/P7.html.

Until someone can come up with "credible" information to disprove what you've found, it is the only document with a date specific for Goncalo Mendes. Was Goncalo 110 yrs old when he died? Perhaps. If he was 110 yrs old at death, who, that was still living at that time, would "know" - absent a document that actually stated his date of birth. Did Goncalo, himself, even know when he was born? Most of our ancestors only had a vague idea, at best, of when they were born - they didn't live in an era that people needed that kind of information. We're at the point where there aren't many records left that can substantiate, or disprove, what you've found. Now the question becomes: "is it the [right] Goncalo Mendes," but, I wouldn't worry about that unless, or until, someone, using "credible" information, disputes your find - so, take credit for your find (GOOD WORK)! :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On Friday, April 18, 2014 7:10:14 PM UTC-4, fred_star wrote: Dano, One other find that is possible match for Goncalo Mendes death record.

Hard to read because of abbreviations but I think this is his baptism record from Sao Pedro records having him born on 26 Feb 1635.
