Yes. I have ancestors who registered and it said it was their 2nd or 3rd
time.

You have to start looking on June 18, 1905 and work backwards in time. You
don't know if she registered 2 weeks before departure or a year before
departure. If you know her freguesia (village), you could look down the
council & freguesia column looking for that. It's much easier than looking
at every Maria!
Good luck,
