Here is what I think I see, along with links to the records: 27 Nov 1794, Velas
Joao Jose da Silveira, son of Antonio Alvares de Quadros and Joanna Maria, native and parishioner of Velas Anna Bernarda Poderoza, daughter of Joao Ignacio da Souza and Maria Bernarda Poderoza, native of Norte Grande and parishioner of Velas http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SJR-VL-VELAS-C-1788-1806/SJR-VL-VELAS-C-1788-1806_item1/P37.html Month? Day? 1797 (presumably between 17 Sep and 5 Nov 1797), Velas Joao Ignacio de Souza?, son of Joao de Souza? Machado and Tereza? Maria de Jesus, widower of Maria Bernarda Poderoza, native of Velas and parishioner of Norte Grande. Joanna? Maciel Alvares, daughter of Antonio Alvares de Quadros and Joanna Maria da Silveira, native and parishioner of Velas http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SJR-VL-VELAS-C-1788-1806/SJR-VL-VELAS-C-1788-1806_item1/P54.html It appears to me that the father of the bride in the first marriage is the same as the groom in the second marriage. Since Anna Bernarda's marriage does list her mother as defuncta (deceased), perhaps she died between 1794 and 1797 (possibly in Norte Grande). It also appears to me that the parents of the groom in the first marriage are the same as the parents of the bride in the second marriage. If so, then you are correct that he married his son-in-law's sister. -- For options, such as changing to List, Digest, Abridged, or No Mail (vacation) mode, log into your Google account and visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/Azores.
