[AZORES-Genealogy] Rego Baldaias of Lagoa

Does anyone have information on the Rego Baldaia's of Lagoa? I am specifically trying to determine if Vital do Rego is same person as Jose do Rego. They both married a Maria Henriques in the same time period, about Jan 6- 1658, in Rosario, Lagoa. My feeling is they are the same person. He is

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: money

A Real (plural = Reis) was the monetary unit until about 1910. A Vintem equaled 20 Reis, and a Tostao equaled 80 (or, later, 100) Reis. I don't know what equivalent current values might be. Linda On Sunday, July 16, 2017 at 1:30:42 PM UTC-7, gs...@centurylink.net wrote: > > does anyone know

I received this notice through my local genealogy society. The will be a webinar about the Boston Catholic records. Though, I think it probably will be easier to watch the recording rather than watching it live. Registration link for the webinar:

Thanks Margaret! I really appreciate the knowledge you share so generously. Joanne: regarding the date, I believe that it's best to add a qualifier ("circa", "about", "probably"-- or similar) to the date so that it's readily apparent that it's not a recorded fact. I would also add a note

Hi Bill, I would say no, not the same as Jose's for the obvious reason of it being recorded after the one with the missing date. Were Jose's the first record followed by the one above it without date, then you would say the 30th. Bad habits were hard to break. Heavy fines were handed out.
