Perhaps you are right. But it is strange that in Emilia's baptism of 1873 the priest says Antonio da Silva parents are also Incognitos and that Helena Rosa is viuva. But if she was married to Antonio Silva who died in 1874 after Emilia was born, why would priest say she is viuva in the 1873 marriage? It just be a mix up.
I will send you what I have. JR On Wednesday, May 17, 2017 at 7:57:31 PM UTC-4, Richard Francis Pimentel wrote: > > *JR,* > > *I am treading lightly on this one.
