As best as I can transcribe and translate it [brackets indicate gross uncertainty]:
Em os dois dias do mes de outobro de mil sette centos e nove, vindo do Fayal hum Barco lat -ino desta freguesia, dado era mestre M.el da Sylvr.a Castanho, [nanfragou??] junto a [Areia??] larga no baixio da parte do norte morre- rado outo pessoas, a [s]aber George [Roiz] na tural das Band.sas el cazado nesta freguesia... On the second day of October 1709 coming from Fayal a lateen boat from this parish, the master of which was Manuel Sylveira Castanho...[I can't quite translate this section]... eight people died.. [list of victims follows, one was a slave]... the entry ends by stating that they were buried in the church. That's a really interesting record. Thanks for posting it. :) Linda On Tuesday, August 23, 2016 at 6:37:31 PM UTC-7, DiG wrote: > > Hi, > > > > Has anyone tried to use the Madalena, Pico data at CCA today?
