Hi Eric: Sorry for the blank responses--have had too much caffeine this morning.
Antonia was born 9 August 1812 before her parents were married. Her baptism record confirms the names of her mother and maternal grandparents. See top right http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SJR-CH-TOPO-B-1801-1815/SJR-CH-TOPO-B-1801-1815_item1/P197.html Then in 1817 ( top left) her parents, who were married in 1814 brought her to the church, for a ceremony to perhaps "legitimize" her?? The record verifies her DOB, but I cannot read what follows. We need a person more fluent to explain this record and notes in the margins of both records. http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SJR-CH-TOPO-B-1815-1828/SJR-CH-TOPO-B-1815-1828_item1/P34.html Thanks for your help.
