Thanks, I went with Tereza after studying the letter T and "L" in other records he wrote. It's definitely a Tereza. Whew, it was a challenge.
JR: this TEREZA is a child of Heronimo Martins x Maria Cravalha our common ancestor. So far I found records for three children for them MARIA, baptized 15 October 1667, page 0162 (Ginetes, Baptisms 1588-1677) (wife of Antonio Ferreira) MATHIAS baptized 27 September 1671; page 0162 TEREZA, baptized 13 January 1676 I've searched into the year 1684 and haven't found any more children. I noticed the three kids they had were spaced out; being 5 years between the last two. I'm going to look for obits to see if one or both of parents died. I dont know if you already had these in your data base but they are our cousins😀😀 Maria Elena > On Feb 5, 2017, at 3:27 PM, JR <[email protected]> wrote: > > I would stick with Tereza.
