OK, so how much wine did this priest have??? He doesn't specify legitimate son or not. Or if he just forgot the father. But the priest remembers to make sure that the bell ringer has a legitimate wife! He put everyone else in too. Wish he was the priest for my brickwall when they were being godparents, as I would know who their parents were then! And I saw the ja de f.a and thought ja defuncta, but it was in the wrong place. Never heard of Boaterra either, but I couldn't make it look like Boaventura. I'll take another look. I wonder if Lisbon's Court is a place in Graciosa (I don't research there) or if they mean the continent.
Thanks for your help!
