Hi Tony, I wonder if the transcribers for the index got this wrong. It does look like Doutor Jose Soares Pereira de Sousa for the groom at first; but the "Periera" looks more like the "Teixeira" in his father's name than the "Pereira" in the brides name.
This is how I see it, which differs only slightly from Cheri: Groom: Doutor Jose Soares Teixeira de Sousa, age 35, baptized in Velas Son of Tenente Coronel Miguel Teixeira Soares de Sousa and Dona Maria Angelica Soares, Paternal grandson of Capitão-Mor José Soares de Sousa and Dona Barbara Josefa, both deceased Maternal grandson of Coronel Inacio Doares de Albergaria and Dona Isabel Delfina Bride: Isabel Beatris Pereira de Sousa, age 23, baptized in Urzelina Daughter of José de Matos de Azevedo and Dona Isabel Maria da Silveira, residents of this parish Paternal granddaughter of José Inacio de Azevedo and Dona Maria Inacia de Bettencourt Maternal granddaughter of Capitão-Mor Joaquim José Pereira da Silveira e Sousa and Dona Maria Dorotea da Silveira My wife has a lot of ancestors from Urzelina, but none mentioned this record (so many titles these must have been prominent people). Her grandmother who was born in Urzelina was Candida Amarante. I met one of wife's DNA matches in Manadas (Maria José) last year who dropped your name as someone that contacted her and would be visiting São Jorge in the near future. Have you made that trip yet?
