[AZORES-Genealogy] João de Aguiar of Quatro Ribeiras, Terceira

[pico]

Hi John,

Does the Ornelas Mendes volume for Terceira mention another child or two of João de Aguiar?

I think he might have had many, based on surname usage of some families at that time in the records.

I remember reading about Padre Maldonado's ancestry being unknown and that it was suspected his family had come from somewhere other than Praia or Angra. So I found it interesting that he himself mentioned some family links. But that might be something from a book by Ferreira Drummond which is now approaching 200 years old and maybe someone discovered his family in recent times.

I'll have to look for Maldonado's comments in Fénix Angrense.. Thank's for referencing that!

I wonder if there is any mention of the Aguiar origins and if maybe he came over from Sao Miguel or Madeira, or straight from the continent.

I'm also sending this message to the list, since there are several people interested. But it might never appear there, since it seems all my messages end up in the que as spam, according to Cheri.

Obrigado,
