Hello. I was hoping someone could provide me with any insight on a record for someone in my family. My 6th great grandparents were from Terceira and were named Antonio de Souza do Alimo and Catharina Josefa Bernarda Moules (or Mole). They were married in the parish of São Bartolomeu de Regatos in Angra do Heroismo on July 9, 1746.

Here's what I can make out: Freguez da parochia de S. Pedro da Cid...(can't make these words out) ...quaresma...pasada...e Catherina Josefa >From the moment they mention that he's from the parish of São Pedro, to the moment they mention his new wife's name, I'm lost about what is being said. I believe it has something to do with the death of his first wife who is mentioned on the previous line. Her name was Josefa Maria and she had passed away just one year before on July 6, 1745 and had been buried in the parish of São Pedro. http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-SAOPEDRO-O-1710-1765/TER-AH-SAOPEDRO-O-1710-1765_item1/P103.html I've been trying to chase down Antonio's parents, but without a record of marriage between him and his first wife, I don't think I will be able to find it. I have been unsuccessful so far in finding it. I was hoping that perhaps some of the missing text may help me.
