It always astounds me how much they went back and forth between islands. I even found some greats marrying on Terceira when the groom was from Calheta and the bride from Ribeira Seca, Sao Jorge!! Why would they take a boat to Terceira to get married, I'll never know but it's really a question I've asked myself.
