Hi all, We had a recent discussion about a surname with a number "Quarenta" which was interesting. I came across a family that used the name Raposo Quintanilha. Quintanilha is listed as a family name in Guill's History of the Azores. What is the meaning of this name and is it a derivative of a number? I know quinta is fifth in latin. Is there a connection?
