Interesting. I went to Vila Franca and they showed me the viola on the
wall. It was made by my ancestor whose alcunha was Viola. And that's the
word my family used on S.Miguel. Maybe it's a regional thing and maybe
alcunha just got started through the lists and here we are today!

Maybe it depends where your ancestors are from. My parents, both from São
Miguel used apelido for nickname, sobre nome for last name. I only learned
"alcunha" from this list and other genealogy lists.

other
An apelido is a nickname. I hear it used that way all the time from Azorens.

Sorry, apelido is surname and alcunha is nickname. In casual conversation,
people seem to use them interchangeably, but they aren't really. I
remember a guy at our hall explaining that his alcunha was this and his
apelido was that and half the table told him no it wasn't, he had it
backwards, bla
apelido is another name for nickname

Maybe it's time for bed. Alcunha means nickname. Nickname means alcunha.

It's a soft sound. Chaves kinda starts out like the English word "shawl."

In the first record, the name transliterates as "Chapado" and in the
second, as "Xapado". It's the same name. "Ch" and "X" are both used for
that sound-- but I don't know if it's a soft "sh" or a harder "ch"--can
anyone clarify, please?. I've seen this usage in "Chaves/Xaves" too.
I don't
Margaret,
Thanks. I have RR just have no clue to find where it is referenced in his work.
Thanks, again.

Hi Lee,
Do some more research. Chapado is a Spanish surname and no surprise it
turns up in S.Miguel for Portugal was under Spanish rule for almost a
century.
I did a search at the Biblioteca Genalogica de Lisboa and it shows up in
Rodrigo Rodrigues. If it were a nick (alcunha) RR would have ind
Hi Lee,
I would think it's an alcunha, possibly to differentiate him from his
father who had the same name. Google translates it (chapdao) as stoned, as
in paved with stone, or plated.
