Thank you Margaret, it never occurred to me, the gender of freguesia because I don’t think I have seen it spelled freguesio but then again may be I have always assumed that freguesia is feminine because we always refer cities and towns as “she”.

I think he probably meant Maria Maxima was from N.S. da Graça. He should have put it after HER name.

May be I am just reading too much into it.

So technically, N.S. da Graça is under the umbrella of N.S. da Estrella over in Ribeira Grande.
