Hi, I was wondering if you had anything on Faustino Franco and Maria da Costa da Ponte. I think Fautino is related to a Petronilha Franca and Maria da Costa da Ponte maybe daughter of a Bras Coelho. does aonyone have additional information? PS - Faustino baptized his children in Matriz (S. Jorge) of Nordeste.

Para: "Azores Genealogy" <azores@googlegroups.com> Data: Domingo, 1 de Abril de 2012, 23:54 I did some exhaustive work in Nordeste looking for my Simas, Franco, Cabral and few other ancestors. So I have quite a few records. I have an Apolonia bap Nordeste, Mar 10, 1661. She is daughter of Simao de Esteves and Apolonia Cordeiro or Pereira. they were married in Nordeste Dec 27, 1648. There is a good chance this is your ancestor. When records are missing or the information is incomplete to go further, then you should try to find baptism or siblings for clues. As for Sebastiao, there is still a chance he is the same Sebastiao who married in Ponta Garca as he may have been a widower and married more than once.
