The marriage took place in Matriz, Vila do Porto. This is information that George Pacheco researched for me several years ago on my great grandmother, Catarina Moreira Cabral. Enjoy the hunt...I'm so happy to be able to search Santa Maria.

Hello Nancy, thank you for your input, where was that marriage of 1657? Santo Espirito or Vila? I am focused on the straight line for now just to see where I can go but I also have Mello, Carvalho and of Course Chaves that I found out it came from a marriage of my 5th Grandfater, and a few others that I will "dig" with time!

I have only the date of his 1st marriage to Maria Andrade de Alpoim who he had no children with. Nov. 1657. Perhaps these people are connected to yours since all the names are so similar. Baltazar was the son of Sebastiao de Fonte Velho and Maria Velho Melo.

In the beginning of the CCA BOOKS 1731 there are five pages missing, other I just cant read, impossible, http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMA-VP-SANTOESPIRITO-C-1731-1751/SMA-VP-SANTOESPIRITO-C-1731-1751_item1/P3.html not to mention that the hole period of marriages 1708-1751 are (were) really in bad shape. In the periods I have been searching I found few "Balthazar" Gomes, not many, I know mine was born in 1707, I got his birth record, but I am starting to believe that these are all from the same "prole", but I might be wrong. There is a Balthazar Gomes Moura, a Balthazar Gomes Velho and a couple more I cant remember. I found in one of my Balthazar Gomes's grandson's birth record that the vicar wrote down his name as Balthazar Gomes Freitas, but having 3 of his son's birth records, death record and birth record only as Gomes an not Gomes Freitas, is confusing me quite a bit. The father of my Balthazar is also Balthazar Gomes and mother Izabel da Fonte. I will dig into the birth records, backwards, to see If I'm lucky. I found from a search on the web there is a lady that has some of these Gomes in her Genealogy, it s blog, I can't remember the site I believe she has a link there to this group so I wonder if she is here. I notice she got marriages prior to 1708, for some of these Gomes, how? I am reaching the stage where probably many of you with much more experience have been as well, what next? I wonder why Santo Espirito Marriages ends in 1708 and Birth records go up to 1671? or Vila to 1630?
