Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Translation Help Please -
Sam, Thank you very much, I look forward to being able to look into this. My work schedule just ramped up to 60+ hours a week again so it doesn't leave much time to research but as soon as it slows back down, I plan to follow up on this.

Thanks for the second look. I'm glad I'm not the only one who can't read some of it. Boy, these are hard to read sometimes.

Good Morning, One more bit of help with Felicia if you wouldn't mind, please. Does this record say that Felica's date of birth is 18 Dec 1761? I thought it did at first but I'm so rusty at reading this old handwriting, now I'm thinking it may say the 8th. It also looks like it says 1762 at the header of the page but it sure looks like the year reads mil sete centos sessenta e um. I'm reading it as: Felica, daughter of Antonio do Rego of ___ parish of Our Lady of the angels and Maria Francesca of the same parish __ on the 8th or 18th day of the month of December 1761. I can't make out much of anything after the year except there is the mention of Francisco de Oliveria near the bottom http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-PD-FAJADEBAIXO-B-1743-1764/SMG-PD-FAJADEBAIXO-B-1743-1764_item1/P171.html (bottom left) Thanks again Jacki On Sunday, January 28, 2018 at 10:59:59 AM UTC-8, Jacki Gentry wrote: > > Hi Everyone, > > It's been a *really *long time since I've posted anything to the group. > Life sort of got in the way of researching. :) I'm trying to get back to > it and I've realized that I'm really out of practice reading these.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Translation Help Please -
JR and Altino, thank you so much The family members named, match the birth records I've found for both Thom and Felicia. I was actually hoping this marriage record would mention their ages and prove I had the wrong birth record for Felicia because I'm just having a hard time accepting an age difference so big. According to my birth records for them, he would have been 56 (born 18 Dec 1724) to her 19 (born 18 Dec 1761) when they married 3 Dec 1781. Unfortunately, I'm now virtually certain I have the correct record. I get it, older men who wanted to have families would have to find a wife young enough to bear children but 37 years?yuk. The fact that his parents were both deceased makes sense though. *Altino*, thank you too for looking up the additional info. I'm not familiar with Canto's index but your info does match the records I've found at culturacores.azores.gov.pt I will definitely be looking up the additional info you both posted as well. Again, thank you both for taking the time to look all that up.

Hi Everyone, It's been a *really *long time since I've posted anything to the group. Life sort of got in the way of researching. :) I'm trying to get back to it and I've realized that I'm really out of practice reading these. I could only read the basics anyway but after all this time, I'm not doing very well with that either. If someone could please be so kind as to translate the basic info from this marriage record, I would truly appreciate the help. The record is for Thome de Medeiros, born 18, Dec 1724 Fajo de Baixo, Sao Miguel and he married Felica Rosa, who if I have the correct record, was born 3 Dec 1761. (37 yrs his junior). I'm hoping this record mentions their parents and especially, their ages at the time so I can confirm that this is correct or not. http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-PD-FAJADEBAIXO-C-1759-1804/SMG-PD-FAJADEBAIXO-C-1759-1804_item1/P52.html Cheri, my apologies if I'm not posting this the correct way.
