Here is my next question and it pertains to these records:
http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SJR-VL-VELAS-B-1861-1870/SJR-VL-VELAS-B-1861-1870_item1/P192.html number 41 Maria on the right http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SJR-VL-VELAS-B-1871-1880/SJR-VL-VELAS-B-1871-1880_item1/P48.html number 5 Francisca on the right http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SJR-VL-VELAS-B-1871-1880/SJR-VL-VELAS-B-1871-1880_item1/P49.html number 6 Marianna on the left 4. These are the records that threw me over the edge about this crazy name problem. I am fairly certain that the father and paternal grandparents on these records are my ggrandfather's sibling and parents, BUT the father's last name is de Souza on the earlier record (1867), but it looks like it could be Lucas or Lemos?? on the later records (1873). The paternal grandfather's name looks like Manuel Silveira de Souza Salsa (what?) on the 1873 records. The last name of the maternal grandfather looks like Balaine on the 1873 records; on the 1867 record it looked like Baliel to me. Oh, and the maternal grandmother's name was Mariana Luiza on the 1867 record and now it is Marianna Josefa. Is this totally the wrong family? Did the priest make some mistakes? (too much vinho as Cheri would say) And if anyone has any idea what the side note says on the 1867 record, that would be a bonus. Thank you again!
