Sam, The primary source info has the most weight. A primary source is something that was generated at the the time of the event (a birth off of a birth certificate, a death off of a death certificate). Secondary sources have less weight (the birth date from the death certificate, for example).

Marcio, Before the NEPS website came online, I had done hundreds of abstractions of the parish records for Candelaria, Pico. I stopped midstream on the baptisms, but I can possibly find a marriage record (1718-1875) or obituary (1805-1875) fairly easily if you need something in particular.
