Thank you Richard. The ‘Jose da Costa Canejo & Maria da Conceição’ that I have found *are in different generations*. I haven’t found their marriage records, but they are named in the baptismal records of their children and grandchildren.
Here are the records which mention them: 1. LEFT PAGE, Maria. http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-RG-ESTRELA-B-1860-1864/SMG-RG-ESTRELA-B-1860-1864_item1/P334.html 2.RIGHT-TOP, Jacinto. http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-RG-ESTRELA-B-1828-1831/SMG-RG-ESTRELA-B-1828-1831_item1/P21.html 3. RIGHT-BOTTOM, Anna. http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-RG-ESTRELA-B-1796-1801/SMG-RG-ESTRELA-B-1796-1801_item1/P7.html It is possible that the ‘Jose da Costa Canejo & Maria da Conceição’ mentioned in records #2 and #3 may be the same couple and I’ve yet to rule that in or out. Thank you, Margaret. I had found that marriage record and it indicates that the bride “Escolastica” was an exposta and baptized in Conceicao, Ribeira Grande. I found her husband’s baptismal (b. 28 May 1828) record which is #2 above and the one that started this thread. I am interested in anyone’s opinion regarding ‘Escolastica’ regarding the following information I’ve found thus far. I searched for Escolastica’s baptismal record in Conceicao from 1821 to 1837 and only found one child with that name baptized on 2 Nov 1837. And that child was an ‘exposta’. If this is her than it makes her 15 years and 7 months old at the time of the marriage to Jacinto. Now, my question is: should I continue to look back further to rule out the possibility of another considerably older ‘Escolastica’ who also happened to be exposta AND should I continue to look further forward for another considerably younger ‘Escolastica’ who also happened to be exposta. I have seen it, but how much younger could she be? My gut feeling is that this is her, but should I be a little more thorough? Here is the record: LEFT-TOP, Escolastica. http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-RG-CONCEICAO-B-1834-1842/SMG-RG-CONCEICAO-B-1834-1842_item1/P101.html That’s not all! I have found at least 6 children belonging to Jacinto & Escolastica from 1856 to 1873. The first 5 children’s baptismal records indicate their maternal grandparents as ‘incognito’ due to the mother being ‘exposta’. However, their 6th child born in 1873 names the maternal grandparents as Elias do Rego & Maria Jacinta. I wonder if they married at some point and should I look for a marriage record? But when and where? Here’s the link to that record: RIGHT-BOTTOM, Maria- continued on the next page. http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-RG-ESTRELA-B-1870-1874/SMG-RG-ESTRELA-B-1870-1874_item1/P320.html The name of the father and paternal grandparents are the same as in the records of the other children. I apologize for this long reply. I try to keep them short and to the point. Thanks.
