Ron C, Perfect! Name, date, and place - you have the 3 things you need to start searching over there.
Agua Retorta records are here: https://tombo.pt/en/f/pvc01 Go to the link for baptisms that include 1889. Since your Manuel was born in Nov, go to the last image and work your way backwards, looking for a Manuel. NOTE: Even though you *think* you have his birth, it may not be correct. You may need to go a couple of years forwards or backwards. It looks like Agua Retorta was pretty good with noting the marriages in the margins. So when you see a Manuel in the margin, squint at the margin note to see if he is marrying a Rosa Cabral. Manuel's ship was the Canopic and Rosa's ship was the Cretic.
