After more than a year away from researching them I decide to go back to my 8X g grandparents (both sides) Domingos de Braga & Anna de Mello and Domingos de Moura/Moira & Maria Candeias/de Mello.
*de Braga/de Mello* Domingos and Anna were married 17 Sep 1710 in Assunção, Vila do Porto, Santa Maria. http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMA-VP-ASSUNCAO-C-1699-1717/SMA-VP-ASSUNCAO-C-1699-1717_item1/P64.html (lower right) children: Jose de Braga Joanna de Mello 1716 Manoel de Braga 1719 I have not found a baptism record for Jose, though I did find this at the beginning of the 1713-1720 records http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMA-VP-ASSUNCAO-B-1713-1720/SMA-VP-ASSUNCAO-B-1713-1720_item1/P12.html top right. At the top is what appears to be Domingos Brag? and then a date of 22 Dec 17??. I hope this is Jose's baptism. *de Moura/Moira Candeias/de Mello* This branch is a little more perplexing in that I have yet to find a marriage record for Domingos and Maria. children: Izabel 1715 Sao Pedro, Vila do Porto, Santa Maria http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMA-VP-SAOPEDRO-B-1707-1723/SMA-VP-SAOPEDRO-B-1707-1723_item1/P45.html (middle left) Manoel de Moura/Moira 1717 Assunção, Vila do Porto, Santa Maria http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMA-VP-ASSUNCAO-B-1713-1720/SMA-VP-ASSUNCAO-B-1713-1720_item1/P90.html (top right) Joaquim 1721 Assunção, Vila do Porto, Santa Maria http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMA-VP-ASSUNCAO-B-1720-1733/SMA-VP-ASSUNCAO-B-1720-1733_item1/P18.html (left page) Maria Candeias/de Mello 1723 Assunção, Vila do Porto, Santa Maria http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMA-VP-ASSUNCAO-B-1720-1733/SMA-VP-ASSUNCAO-B-1720-1733_item1/P58.html (lower left) I also believe that Domingos de Moura has been married two more times. I have a obito for a Don(n)a Antonia ? in 1724 http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMA-VP-ASSUNCAO-O-1701-1753/SMA-VP-ASSUNCAO-O-1701-1753_item1/P80.html (top right very hard to read) and a casamento for Domingos and Francisca Quiteria de Sousa 5 Nov 1725 in Santo Espirito http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMA-VP-SANTOESPIRITO-C-1708-1730/SMA-VP-SANTOESPIRITO-C-1708-1730_item1/P53.html (lower right and continues to the next page). Before you ask, no I have not found an obito for Maria.
