Lester, An interesting note; at the bottom of this record it shows the witnesses as Jose Joaquim Madruga de Bettencourt and Francisco Ignacio..
Sam in CA From: azores@googlegroups.com [mailto:azores@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Cheri Mello Sent: Friday, September 07, 2012 9:19 AM To: Azores Genealogy Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Brick wall Repost for Lester, l lester.mur...@gmail.com I have hit a wall of bricks looking for the marriage record of Jose Joaquim Madruga and Maria da Conceicao (married about 1850). The record below seems like a good match, but the surname "Madruga" is missing. I went back and re-read Cheri's guidance on the subject and got more frustrated by the Azores naming conventions! I have also been through the on-line records from 1830-1860 a couple of times without success. Does the absence of a surname rule out this record? http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/PIC-LJ-LAJES-C-1808-186 0/PIC-LJ-LAJES-C-1808-1860_item1/P191.html Thanks!
