Mark. You are right the father is not named, and the mother was married but seprated from her husband. Hermano Date: Sat, 23 Jan 2016 16:46:01 -0800 From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Marriage separation?
Hello, Can anyone take a look at this record and let me know what you think: http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-PD-CANDELARIA-B-1880-1889/SMG-PD-CANDELARIA-B-1880-1889_item1/P172.html It is a baptism record for a Maria (entry # 39) that doesn't list her father or say exposto or pai incognito. I can make out what looks like seperada (9th line). Does this mean the parents were seperated? I have about four other baptism records for the same couple that showed they were the parents of exposto children and in all theses records, the wife (Emilia de Jesus) was always listed on the record first, then it said casada ? Rufino da Camara. Maybethis record just doesn't mention him this time but what is with the "seperada"? This record doesn't mention him at all. Could they have been seperated? I don't see any words that can mean dead or buried. I don't think I've heard of couples being separated back then in the Azores. I'm sure it's possible but I have just never come across it. As a side note, of the 4 records for exposto children I believe Emilia and Rufino took in, 3 of them have their names smudged or erased from the index pages of these books. Was that done on purpose to protect them later on in life? I know from my limited research into Azores genealogy that the "tag" of Exposto or pai incognito usually followed a person with them into most other records like passports, marriage, death. Why try to erase their status from the indices of these books? Any advice or suggestions anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated. I don't think enough credit is given to many of the group members who help others with translations or advice on many different topics. I know I for one wouldn't get far in my research with out the help the members provide so thanks for that. -- 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.
