Emil; Again, thanks for the info. Glad to know the relationship of Dot and I! 😊 I think I just found the marriage of Isabel Machado Valenca’s parents. Left hand page: http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SJR-CH-CALHETA-C-1696-1722/SJR-CH-CALHETA-C-1696-1722_item1/P22.html
There isn’t much of it I can read but; I “think” I see Miguel Viera de Sousa de Borba and Barbara Valenca there??? But it’s very difficult for me to read and I see other names as well. Can’t quite figure it all out.

Emil; Hmm, your wife is Isabel’s 1st cousin 5 times removed and Isabel is my 3rd great grandmother; I wonder what that makes the relationship between your wife and I? Can’t seem to figure that out from the charts… I think we’ve touched base before our you wife’s and my ancestors. Unfortunately, I’ve updated to the latest FTM and not all of my documents made it to the new program. I’m not trying to reintegrate the documents as well as locate new ones. Luckily, I still have the info., dates, relationships, etc. It is the actual documents and translations I am having to relocate.

Help please, I need the expertize of the group. 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.
