A few things on this baptism in RdT (number 17 on the left): http://goo.gl/vVFN8C
Lines 11 & 12: I've only seen babies born at 2 a.m., 4 p.m., etc. No one is ever born at the half hour mark. This Maria seems to be born at 12:30 a.m.? If it was 1:30 a.m. wouldn't they have said "uma hora e meia" or something like that? The maternal grandma on the right page, 9th line down: Maria Thereza, correct? What's with the margin notes? I see she was married, then a certificate was issued (maybe to emigrate to Canada). Note #2 sounds like she died in 1999, but note 3 says the marriage was dissolved by death in 1971. So did she die in 1999 and they realized they forgot to say she was widowed in 1971 so they went back and wrote that in 2000?
