Doreen,
To support the baptism of Matias I provided, here is a what I believe to be his marriage (right side) *http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-SE-C-1754-1780/TER-AH-SE-C-1754-1780_item1/P80.html* <http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-SE-C-1754-1780/TER-AH-SE-C-1754-1780_item1/P80.html> 24 Jan 1760, Matias Cardoso son of Manuel Ferreira Cardoso and his wife Maria Sylveira natives of the parish of Ribeiras, Island of Pico, marrying Maria Antonia, daughter of Manuel Machado Falcão (I think) and his wife Maria da Conceição natives of the parish of (Santo Antonio?) And I believe this is their child Margarida, born 15 Oct 1762 in Porto Judeu (bottom right) *http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-PORTOJUDEU-B-1751-1770/TER-AH-PORTOJUDEU-B-1751-1770_item1/P85.html* <http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-PORTOJUDEU-B-1751-1770/TER-AH-PORTOJUDEU-B-1751-1770_item1/P85.html> And here is what I believe to be Maria Antonia’s baptism (top right): *http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-PORTOJUDEU-B-1730-1751/TER-AH-PORTOJUDEU-B-1730-1751_item1/P19.html* <http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-PORTOJUDEU-B-1730-1751/TER-AH-PORTOJUDEU-B-1730-1751_item1/P19.html> Maria, daughter of Manuel Machado Falcão and his wife Maria da Conceição, natives and parishioners of this parish of Santo Antonio, born 7 October 1731. I do believe this is the same Matias and Maria Antonia in all of these records from Sé and Porto Judeu on Terceira and from Ribeiras on Pico, but I am never 100% sure of anything. I am also not sure of the name Falcão because it is not clear to me in either record. I do see the compound surname of Machado Falcão on the Terceira marriage index in Porto Judeu; but not with the first name Manuel. I have not tested MtDNA, but even if I had this is not my maternal line since my direct maternal line is from São Miguel where my mother’s mother is from. It is my mother’s father that was from Terceira. I hope this helps. Bill Seidler -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Azores Genealogy" group.
