I am absolutely stumped by the name variations. Did women sometimes use different names? Can someone help me sort this out? -Donna
Could Maria Jeronima in this Marriage record (Casamentos 1798-1826.44) also be Maria Santa in the Sao Jorge (Dispensation Transcripts, 1808, p.45 ) Maria Jeronima Rosais, Casamentos 1798-1826.44 In the morning on 17 Sep 1809, in Rosais, Manuel Silveira de Quadros, son of Joao Teixeira de Quadros and Marianna do Rosario, married to Maria Jeronima, daughter of Joao de Sousa Machado and his wife Susana Marie, deceased, all native of Rosais. They were dispensed in 4th degree of consanguinity. Also be Maria Santa in these records from Sao Jorge Marriage Dispensations. Maria, daughter of João de Sousa Machado and his wife Susana Maria, both from Rosais, was born on 19 April 1789 and was baptized on the 23rd, in Rosais. The groom in this chart is Manuel Silveira, son of Maria do Rosario and Joao Teixeira Correia. The couple requires investigation of 4 th degree of consanguinity . I believe I already resolved the question of parents names…Maria/Mariana do Rosario and Joao Teixeira de Quadros or Joao Teixeira de Quadros Correia or Joao Teixeira Correia. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Azores Genealogy" group.
