Is it unusual to NOT include the father’s surname in documents in the early 1800’s on the island of Faial? My ancestor was Antonio Catherino/a and his parents were Manoel Francisco Catherina and Theresa Felicia. Antonio married Maria Jacintha. The information I have is that the were married on 17 Sept 1821. (Could well be a typo) I believe this is their marriage document but; I “think” it says they were married on 27 Sept 1821 and that Antonio’s parents were Manoel Franciso and Theresa Felicia (no mention of the surname Catherino/a. Maria Jacintha’s parents agree with my information ( Domingos Luis and Francisca Jacintha. So my questions are:
1. Does anyone see the surname Catherino/a 2. If not, why do you think it isn’t listed? 3. Is the date shown 27 Sept 1821? 4. Since everything agrees with my information, do you agree that I have the right document?
