[Changed the subject to not hijack Suzanne’s thread on hiring a genealogist]
David — We took it back to the 1600s. I have death records for a husband and wife ~1700 but can't find marraige or birth records. Have not yet attempted dispensations, but that seems to be a long search with low possibility of success. Anyone else researching this line? My 8th great grandparents note from João Ventura: "Pedro Afonso Balieiro (d. 08 Oct 1706 Guadalupe) and Maria Rebelo de Ataíde (d. 20 Apr 1700 Guadalupe) are likely connected to the noble families: their daughter (D. Maria de Ataíde b 29 Sep 1663) uses the title of Dona (D.) in the 1600's; he owned a grave in a chapel." The name line back from me (jumps two maternal twice): John Michael Athayde (b 1977 Houston, TX) William Paul Athayde (b 1949, Oakland, CA) Hubert Paul Athayde (b 1923 Merced, CA) Manuel Correia Athayde (b 1893 Guadalupe) Adelaide Isabel de Athayde do Conde (b 1856 Guadalupe) José Espinola de Ataíde (b 1795 Santa Cruz) Manuel Espínola de Ataíde (b 1749 Santa Cruz) Domingo da Silva de Ataíde (b 1720 Guadalupe) D. Catarina de Ataíde (b 1683 Guadalupe) D. Maria de Ataíde (b 1663 Guadalupe) Maria Rebelo de Ataíde (d 1700 Guadalupe) We did not search church dispensations yet. I was hoping to find someone with some already discovered information before going down that rabbit (and financial) hole. I also researched another line of a nominal cousin in California whose Athayde ancestors were from Gracioça as well, but found no direct connection there. I have those records here if you’re curious.. I’ve found one other researcher with whom I share the 8th great grandparents, but that’s it and she hasn’t gotten any further back either. I’d love to make an actual connection to someone listed in the Nobalario but that may not happen anytime soon.
