Thank you so much Gayle for the suggestion for checking the CITEM. I do believe that I have found the correct Maria Teresa Maciel. The CITEM lists the parents (Antonio Pereira Rosa & Maria Teresa) that are found in the baptismal record. I think that I have most of it figured out, but there are still some words that I haven't yet.
