I am going to chime in also. I have two Joao de Souza Machado's in my data
base. What is the time period you are talking about?
Mine are father and son. The information I have is at the other end of the
island, Ribeira Seca and Topo. It maybe 2 others by the same name.
Joao deSouza Machado b abt 1765 Ribeira Seca m 22 Apr 1789 Topo to Maria
Antonia de Azevedo b Topo ( I must not have this baptism yet)
son: Joao deSouza Machado b 12 Feb 1799 Topo m 17 Nov 1823 Topo to
Maria Delfina de Santo Antonio b 17 Feb 1801
and son: Manuel b 18 Nov 1791 Topo
The younger Joao deSouza Machado's brother is Manuel Joao Machado *(My
direct line)* B 12 Sep 1824 Topo m 24 Sep 1849 to Isabel Joaquina b 23 Jan
1828 Ribeira Seca
