Hi Liz,

I don't know if my transcription "oultimo" is correct, and I don't know if 
that's an archaic spelling or if it's particular to the priest.  "Ultimo" 
is the Portuguese word for "last" or "latest".  

As Bill pointed out, the record most likely says "bautizado na pia desta 
parochia", and "pia" is a basin, that is, the baptismal font.  

"P.ra" can be the abbreviation for "primeira", but in this case, I made an 
error, and it probably is not.  Sometimes the records will say "na primeira 
desta mez", meaning "the first [day] of the month"-- I jumped to that hasty 
conclusion.  :)

hope that's helpful,

Linda
