In a nut shell it means that Manuel's mother, Maria Quiteria, committed adultery and that Manuel is the product of the affair. Her husband had been absent for too long to be the child's biological father. John Miranda Raposo

What do the mean? Did he just up and leave, if so WHEN? Possibly did not return after his mandatory military service? I have not found an obito for the absent husband (Marianno de Mello). Maria is the daughter of my 3rd great grandparents Manuel Jacintho Duarte & Maria Quiteria de Jesus. In Mae de Deus Maria married Marianno de Mello in 1867. http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-PV-MAEDEDEUS-C-1860-1869/SMG-PV-MAEDEDEUS-C-1860-1869_item1/P125.html (lower left/top right) Marianno and Maria had a daughter, Maria born in 1868 but died six days later. Another daughter was born in 1869 also named Maria. I am still searching for other children from this marriage, so far nothing through 1874.
