Fernando, As you know, there is a marriage index for Sao Miguel Arcanjo from 1800-1900. My suggestion would be to work backwards from that date (so starting in 1799 and working backwards). The further back you go, the more abbreviations are there and the more difficult it is to decipher. You may find more people willing to help out with the late 1700s too, as those earlier records are more difficult. I'd think you find more volunteers for a later time period. Anyways, it's just a thought. Since you are organizing it, you can do it however you chose :)
