"E": In reply to your question, "Is there such a place as Santa Barbara in Santa Maria?".... Yes, there certainly is such a place. Santa Bárbara is one of the 5 Parishes of Santa Maria, as well as being a community within the parish. Of course, as others have indicated, other islands also share the name, Santa Bárbara. Denis
