Sean, I'm going to assume that the typo in 1944 should be 1844. Or I hope.
The NEPS site has wrong information on this family. They have probably blended 2 different people of the same name. 1784 Francisco Leal da Costa born 1788 Maria Felicia de Jesus born 1808 Francisco & Maria marry 1809 Francisco's 2nd wife, Maria Tomasia is born 1821 or later, daughter of Francisco and MARIA FELICIA, Ana Maria Pereira is born 1831 son of Francisco and MARIA FELICIA, Antonio Leal da Costa marries (Francisco would be way older than sister Ana Maria born 1821 or later) 1840s son of Francisco and MARIA FELICIA, Jose Leal da Costa marries (guess based on his kids' birth). Also, this Jose would be around the age of Ana Maria, I would think). 1844 MARIA FELICIA dies 1846 son of Francisco and MARIA TOMASIA is born When you put events in your genealogy program, you can see a timeline for events. You'll be able to see gaps or mistakes. I see that there are not enough kids for Francisco & Maria Felicia. They marry in 1808 and they think a kid is born in 1821 or later? Where are all the kids? The NEPS site may not have recorded the babies that did not reach adulthood. Also, if it is the same Francisco, he married a woman the age of his kids. There are 3 different locations that Francisco Leal da Costa is in. It seems like too much moving around. It's covering almost half the island of Faial. I would use caution with the information from NEPS on this family. Go back to the actual records and try to verify everything. Work with what you know going BACK in time. Stay in one freguesia until you can find no more or until a records states a different freguesia.
