This the baptism of Leocadio? Manoel filho of Francisco Gomez Xapado and 
Barbara do Sacramento (left page, bottom record).

Born March 2, 1772.

I would like some confirmation that I have read the first name correctly as 
Leocadio.

I remember too that was  discussion about it being rare for children to be 
baptized with two name - I'll say this, Rabo de Peixe is the exception - 
they're "all over the place" with double names at baptism.  Over a span of 
3-4 pages there were at least 3-4 with double names.

Thanks for the help in confirming that I believe the name is Locadio.

PS - Also saw a father with the surname of de Armada (I looked at it 
several times thinking it had to be Arruda; but no; it was Armada).
