Diane, The priest wrote multiple deaths in the same obit. I've seen it before in the case of accidents when they hall happened to die together but in this case the priest does not specify. Here's the gist of it:
On January 23rd 1705 we buried Francisco De Utra Machado and Maria da Rosa wife of Francisco of "rua de cima" street above naturals and living in this parish of Santa Catarina, Castelo Branco Place of this island of Faiial. First burial is located in the middle of the principal door/entrance door On the 2nd page you can better read as he wrote: All received the Sacraments and for his soul the wife of Francisco Gularte was obligated of ordering masses said for his soul. etc Because some of the belong to the Society of the Souls they had extra prayers said for them....and he closing "Deceased are Francisco De Utra Machado, 60 years old. Antonio Alvernas, 65 years old and Maria da Rosa, 21 years old.
