This can be a great resource to answer these types of questions for you.

If I’m understanding you correctly then, the information “being born in the Matris of Santa Catharina on Sao Jorge” isn’t telling me what freguesia to look in? i.e. Riberia Seca, etc.? Thanks again, Sam Sent from Windows Mail From: Margaret Vicente Sent: Saturday, May 24, 2014 11:47 AM To: azores Hi Sam, Freguesia de Santa Catarina. The Matriz means Centre of "Calheta" a place from where all things originate with jurisdiction over the other localities, freguesia is interpreted as Parish in the district (Concelho) of Calheta.

If someone is said to have been born in 1774 in the Matris of Santa Catharina on Sao Jorge, Azores; which fregueisa (sp) should I look for her in? Just in case anyone has my 3rd great grandmother is in anyone else’s tree, I’m looking for the birth of Isabela Silveira d’Azevedo daughter of Manuel Silveira Machado and Maria Silveira Neto.
