Linda These two Ignacio's are my husbands G+Grandparents. I have them as Martins Helen Salvador -----Original Message----- From: linda <[email protected]> To: Azores Genealogy <[email protected]> Sent: Sun, Dec 13, 2015 9:16 pm Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: "Miz" or "Roiz"
Thanks so much for your reply JR. I can see it that way too. I will check the other records... ...hmm, and I'm back... here's a record written two years later by the same priest, Lourenco Gomes: http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-DOZERIBEIRAS-C-1694-1737/TER-AH-DOZERIBEIRAS-C-1694-1737_item1/P103.html In this case, the groom (again named for his father) is listed in the Marriage Index as Manuel Martins. To my eye, the abbreviation used by the priest again looks like Miz, accented. I think it is the same abbreviation as in the first record I linked to. There are several examples of the abbreviation in this second record. If you wouldn't mind having a look at them, I'd be much obliged. thanks again, Linda On Sunday, December 13, 2015 at 8:29:16 PM UTC-8, JR wrote: I would say Roiz because there is short symbol over the Roiz (the z), and that is the usual short form for Rodrigues. However, if you spot Mtz with same accent you may have a case. I would still go with Roiz because that is what it looks like to me, especially the z.

According to the index, the marriage should be for Ignacio Rodrigues. But, I believe it says the groom (and his father) to be Ignacio Martins. The priest's M's (as in the M in "Madre Igregia" second to bottom line) could easily be mistaken for R's, hence the error. I'd very much appreciate more experienced eyes than mine to double check. many thanks, Linda -- For options, such as changing to List, Digest, Abridged, or No Mail (vacation) mode, log into your Google account and visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/Azores.
