Thanks Leonor;  I thought that was the case but; I had remembered once someone 
saying that it was never with an “s” or maybe the person said never a “z”.  
Can’t remember which.  Anyway, a function of time period.  

Thanks,

I think the more modern spelling is with an “s” instead of “z”. I’ve seen Joze, 
Thereza, Roza and even the parish church was Nossa Senhora do Rozario where as 
today it is Nossa Senhora do Rosario.  Interestingly enough, the Spanish kept 
the  “z”, Souza, Dominguez, etc.

Cheri;  Speaking of “z” and “s” ,  I think I’ve seen Sousa and Souza along with 
several other changes in spelling in the various records.  Is it a function of 
time frame, the particular priest or am I mis-remembering this.  I know 
Jacintha and Jacinta as well as Theresa and Teresa but; I think I’ve also see 
Tereza.  Am I wrong?
 
Thanks for sharing your knowledge,
