Hello Tony,
I can make out a little of it (I think), but not too much in the later part
that I think is mostly about the burial. The main point I can make is the
date of death is the 24th. "Digo" literally translates as "I say" but as
used in this context it is "... what I meant to say was..." for the priest
to correct what he wrote wrong.
My wife has some ancestry from Manadas and grandparents named Amarante, but
they are from the neighboring parish of Urzelina. My wife and I recently
made a trip to visit there. Do you know a Maria Jose Azevedo da Silveira?
