Hi Sue, I see "...os Divinos Sacrament.os Ig.r ser quase repentina sua morte..." and with google translate's help, I interpret that as "the Divine Sacraments of the Church [because] her death was nearly sudden". I can't transliterate the second section that you asked about, but my impression is it says something along the lines of: "she was accompanied by [someone/representative] from the town, from the Reverendo Collegio of the Matriz"--that is,someone from one of the lay brotherhoods whose members participated in religious ceremonies went with her body as it was carried to her grave. Perhaps someone with a better eye can confirm or correct this.
hope that helps, Linda On Tuesday, November 22, 2016 at 3:21:34 PM UTC-8, Sue Q wrote: > > I've got most of this but there are some words towards the end that I > can't figure out: > > > On the twenty-third day of the month of November of 1829 at the age of 80, > more or less, died Maria Josefa, widow of Manuel de Bettencourt, resident > on the Fontes Road, did not receive the divine sacraments *(I know what > follows says something about her death but I can’t tell exactly what it > says from the remainder of the 5th line to the middle of the 6th)* was > buried in this church of Santa Cruz da Graciosa, *I’m missing what it > says after this and up through the second to last line.* > > > Maria Josefa, on the left page, top entry: > > > > http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/GRA-SC-SANTACRUZ-O-1826-1833/GRA-SC-SANTACRUZ-O-1826-1833_item1/P39.html > > > Many thanks for any help you can provide. > > > Sue > > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Azores Genealogy" group.
