At that time, before getting married, the authorities in town would make the event public that we call in portuguese PREGOES (plural for pregao) and during that pregao, the authorities would investigate data from the couple specialy to find out if there were any biological ties among the couple. If any found, they would need the church authorization to get married. Some special case the pope would issue a bulla allowing or not the couple to get married. These bulas, happened most of the times among kings and queens that usualy got married to their uncles, cousings, nephews in order to keep the crown to their own families

Someone suggested this was from the church like a dispensation because of consanguinity or affinity. I think that is interesting because the husband in this case, Roberto Luis Goncalves, is an “exposto” and parentage is unknown. However, did he have to get permission to marry? Thanks to all for replies, it is really appreciated.

Over time it took other forms. Sealed Papal decrees of the church were called bulla's. There was also a famous (bulla) where the Pope issued a bulla to allow eating meat on Friday's during Lent, for a fee.

I have translated pretty much everything except a word I cannot find anywhere in my dictionary or in the information I got at the SLC. In the earlier records, pre-1900, there is a column if the individual had made first confession, communion, if they could read and write and then there is a column labeled "Bulla?" I think. It may not be important at all but I just was curious what it meant. In the later records this information is not included. Thanks, Karen Silva Hillman, researching Silva, Goncalves on Terceira, and Sousa, Teixeira, Ayres on S. Jorge. -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.
