Thank you Gayle for the suggestion to check the CITCEM. I found the same reference to her being born in August 1865 & actually found her on 17 July 1865 in Sao Mateus on the CCA. I had seen people post screenshots from GenWeb, but never knew how they generated them, so thanks. & thanks also to Richard for helping translate too. The new one that I found is prettier & should be easier. I also found a cousin who understands Portuguese, but I know that the members of this forum have had more practice and are so much better at deciphering the subtleties.
