Yes, it is the other way around. After their names it says "... esta natural ... ". "esta" is for her, otherwise it would be "este". And then it says " ... e aquelle n[atural] ... ". "aquelle" for him, otherwise it would be "aquela". On Mon, Nov 6, 2017 at 3:34 AM, Cheri Mello

[AZORES-Genealogy] Which freguesia?

I need help with narrowing down the birth place of a native of S. Miguel. I'm looking for Joze de Souza Dias son of Joze de Souza Dias and Maria da Ponte from S. Miguel. He married in Brazil in 1874. I'm a bit lost on how to proceed. Has anyone heard any of these names in your research? Thanks

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Which freguesia?

Cheri, Thanks for the suggestions. Regarding 2, there are already DNA tests. T771844 is the GG-granddaughter of Joze de Souza Dias. And her aunt T600609 is the G-granddaughter of Joze de Souza Dias. Would you be able to guess the area with these DNA results? On Wed, Feb 14, 2018 at 4:42

It is not that «just about any name ending in "O" can be written with an "M"» What happens is that the terminations "am" and "ão" have the same sound in Portuguese, even nowadays. Is is still a very common mistake to exchange one for the other in some words. For example, "eles comeram" (they ate)
