Hello! I have a question about the stamps that often are at the end of the marriage records. My great-grandfather & great-grandmother (Francisco Frederico da Silveira & Anna Corvello da Silveira) have quite a few stamps (stamps on left side of page):
http://www.culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/FLR-LF-FAJAZINHA-C-1900-1910/FLR-LF-FAJAZINHA-C-1900-1910_item1/P17.html I assume they had to pay more because they were leaving the Azores and immigrating to the US? However, the marriage record directly following (on the same page) (No. 4 José Jacintho Teixeira & Maria Corvello Teixeira) is of my great-grandmother's sister, who emigrated with her, and her stamp is only for 100 reis. Why didn't she have to pay as much? Would appreciate any insight! Thanks!
