Both António and his wife are related to me: Maria is my 1st cousin 6 times removed and her husband is also a first cousin 6 times removed. Those lines go back much further. Unfortunately, though, the S. António marriages records go back no further than 1699, with many gaps (1674-1698; 1719-1728). After that we have the "Extracts" from Ernesto do Canto going back (1607-1673). Miguel Soares da Silva has filled in many gaps with his Reconstituição das Famílias de Santo António até 1750. He has also published an index of all available marriage records before 1910. After that Carlos Machado and Rodrigo Rodrigues can be very helpful in bridging back further. Carlos Machado can be accessed on the culturacores site. Miguel Soares da Silva's research is available in 2-3 reference rooms in libraries in southeastern Massachusetts. Also, his compiled index of Santo António marriages 1607-1910 might still be available from Revista Insulana, published by the Instituto Cultural de Ponta Delgada.
These lines eventually connect Rui Vaz de Medeiros and to the Camelo Pereiras/Chichorro lines and thus back to Afonso III. I hope this helps.
