Chronological order (all children are listed as legitimate): 1) Joao, born 17 June 1897, s/o Joao Bernardo (s/o Jacinto Bernardo and Jacinta Rosa) and Maria dos Anjos (d/o Manuel Cabral and Maria Isabel). 2) Joao, born 8 Sep 1902, s/o Joao Bernardo (s/o Jacinto Bernardo and Jacinta de Jesus Raposo) and Maria Luisa (d/o Manuel dos Santos Calheta and Jacinta Emilia) 3) Maria #2, b. 8 Mar 1903, d/o Joao Bernardo (s/o Jacinto Bernardo and Jacinta de Jesus) and Maria dos Santos (d/o Jose Cabral and Maria Ricarda)
It takes 9 months to have a baby, so there's no way kid #2 and kid #3 are from the same Joao Bernardo. That's only 6 months apart. Kid #1 doesn't have maternal grandparents that match the other kids. Where is Maria #1? This is going to be tedious, but you need to go record by record recording every single kid born to every Joao Bernardo you can find. You might be able to shortcut it a little by checking marriages for every single Joao Bernardo. I've seen freguesia who would have, say, a Joao Bernardo, a son name Joao Bernardo, and uncle named Joao Bernardo, a cousin named Joao Bernardo, and at some point it gets crazy and they start using nicknames or tacking on a second surname.
