Thanks Cheri! This is a "finally!" John located Jacinto's baptismal record for me. So, I how have Jacinto and Anna's baptismal, their marriage record, and baptismals for children #2-8.
What I am missing is the bastismal for their oldest son, Antonio. The marriage occurred in 1856 in FVC. 2nd oldest son, Manoel was born/baptized in Achada in 1863. I research both the Achada and FVC baptismals for those years. No Antonio. Where the heck did they disappear to? I'm beginning to wonder if Antonio was adopted. Even still, I find it hard to believe they didn't have any children between 1856-1863, but then had a flurry of them from 1863-1876. Antonio was the first to use the surname Pacheco Algravia/Algarvio. I'm not sure why. I did a simple search through the baptismals of Algarvia just to see, but didn't find Pacheco's. I may go back if I don't find anything in FVC or Achada. On top of this, I still can't find Jacinto's obito. He died somewhere between 1876-1882 before the family left for Hawaii. I went back through Achada with Pacheco/Pacheco Ferreira in mind, but had no luck. Well, at least I can x out the family lore that Anna Jacinta de Mello had outlasted 5 husbands and they died mysteriously.
