Hi Fred, Unless your 6th GGF was a single person you may not have the right Bras Correa for this gentleman status at 50 years of age +/- at his death (sui juris) emancipated/independent/single. The meaning of sui juris is as noted by Doug. He had a will made up with his sister Francisca Correia, also sui juris (single) being the executor.
