They use Celsius there. Don't know how they figured out the temperature in the 1860s. 41°C is about 110°F. No, the Azores are not that hot! Also, temperature wouldn't be found in a baptism. It's exposto #41 for that year.

And yes, they chose Maria de Jesus, the wife of Joao, out of the book of willing Godmothers to take abandoned children.

It involves an exposto named Luciano. Is it saying that he was adopted by Maria de Jesus, wife of Joao Pacheco Grande? http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-RG-FENAISAJUDA-B-1860-1869/SMG-RG-FENAISAJUDA-B-1860-1869_item1/P89.html Also in the side margin it seems to be saying he is the child of Maria Pacheco. Is that correct? Is it inferring that Maria de Jesus is the birth mother, too, or just someone name Maria Pacheco? What do the numbers after stand for? I believe Joao Pacheco Grande is the son of Manoel Pacheco and Marianna Rosa, and grandson of my ancestors Joao Pacheo and Francisca Theresa. Maria de Jesus would have been his 3rd wife, Maria de Jesus Pacheco, daughter of Manoel Pacheco and Anna de Jesus. (I have not connected them, but they could be related, too) Thanks for any help you can offer! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Azores Genealogy" group.
