I am having trouble finding the marriage record of the referenced couple in Matriz da Estrela.
They were the parents of three known (so far) children: Bento born March 20, 1759 (link below) (top right) http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-RG-ESTRELA-B-1757-1764/SMG-RG-ESTRELA-B-1757-1764_item1/P43.html Delfina born ????? 1761 (link below) (bottom left) http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-RG-ESTRELA-B-1757-1764/SMG-RG-ESTRELA-B-1757-1764_item1/P122.html Jacinta Rosa who married Manoel Jose Cabral de Mello November 30, 1777 - parents listed as Manoel Rebello Aranha (nickname meaning "Spider") I have gone through the marriage records of Matriz da Estrela at least 3 times and can only find marriage records of two Manoel Rebello's as follows: Manoel Rebello Ambar? married to Mari da/de Pel??? May 6, 1745 (he was the son of Antonio Texiera Ambar? and Maria Rebella of Sao Pedro and she was daughter of Manoel da Silva and Marai Martins (link below) Right side http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-RG-ESTRELA-C-1736-1751/SMG-RG-ESTRELA-C-1736-1751_item1/P147.html Manoel Rebello Pra? (Pereira) married to Maria Francisca Jund 1747 (he was the son of Joam Rebellow and Clara and she was the daughter of Antonoi de Souza and Maria Francisca (link below - left side) http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-RG-ESTRELA-C-1736-1751/SMG-RG-ESTRELA-C-1736-1751_item1/P179.html The main probably I'm having with the marriage records is that neither mentioned the alcunha of Aranha; so I have no way of telling which is which. Going to look for more birth records this evening; maybe that will help. Has anyone come across this couple in their research? Any suggestions, etc. would be greatly appreciated.
