I would say it is Francisco based on how the writer wrote the letter “a” as in Maria on the record below. While it looks like he wrote over the letter there is no evidence of a tail on the last letter in either the name Francisco or filho.
There is something wrong with the link you attached try this one. http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-ALTARES-B-1842-1852/TER-AH-ALTARES-B-1842-1852_item1/P96.html Rick From: azores@googlegroups.com [mailto:azores@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of doreencaetano Sent: Thursday, May 25, 2017 11:45 AM To: Azores Genealogy Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Help reading-Could Francisca be Francisco? I need this record to be a Francisco not a Francisca. Is there any other place in the record other that filho or filha that indicates the sex of the baby? http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-ALTARES-B-1842-1852/TER-AH-ALTARES-B-1842-1852_item1/P96.htm It's on the top of right side of the page. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Azores Genealogy" group.
