That makes sense the baby would go to a nursemaid. On Wednesday, November 21, 2018 at 8:34:38 AM UTC-8, Mara wrote: For the record. The baby was given to be raised by Maria de Jesus. She was The nursemaid not the Godmother. The exposto baby was given the number 941 and was entered in the book of registration.

I have not had an orphaned baby associated with my family before. So, my relative was listed as someone who would be godmother to these babies. The link provided an interesting history. I had heard of the "wheel" before, but didn't really understand the concept. Now I have a much better idea of what it was. Thanks again for the help on this record!

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.
