I’m particularly glad to know what “seareiro” means as I have that in at least one other document and couldn’t find what it meant! Your CD’s make it so very much easier to do the translating as I was able to alter the shading and enlarge the lettering! Wonderful!

Do you have any birth/marriage/death dates/locations on the people you’ve listed below? That would make it easier for me to find their paperwork too. > > > > Again, many, many thanks for your help and those CD’s!
