Thanks. The second set of godparents are the maternal grandparents which are relatives of mine. I had been tracing this family and their children for a while. I just felt they would connect because I saw a lot of the same people listed as witness and godparents etc. Thanks it was a big help.

It is possible the second name may be Florencio, that is a male; but I don't think it is likely.

I can make out they are from the parish of Sao Roque in Altares but my ability to read Portuguese is very limited. Could someone please help me? I see the first child listed is Marianna, then I can not read the next two names. The second name maybe the child Horencio or Horenica that died May 11, 1813 in Altares. Does it say how old the children are? I know that Marianna was born in January 1813 and died August 20, 1813. It says the month February and year 1813 but what day is it? The godparents are Sebastiao Machado and Maria de Sao Jose. It is the first record on the left: http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-ALTARES-B-1802-1815/TER-AH-ALTARES-B-1802-1815_item1/P166.html Here is the death record for Marianna: http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-ALTARES-O-1796-1814/TER-AH-ALTARES-O-1796-1814_item1/P99.html Here’s is the death record for Horencia(o): http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-ALTARES-B-1802-1815/TER-AH-ALTARES-B-1802-1815_item1/P166.html Here’s the death record for the mother, Maria do Santa Anna from February 15, 1813: http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-ALTARES-O-1796-1814/TER-AH-ALTARES-O-1796-1814_item1/P95.html In case anyone is tracking this couple, they have another child named Maria do Coracao de Jesus, who marries Joao Coelho de Ornelas on July 2, 1829 in Altares. http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-ALTARES-C-1787-1831/TER-AH-ALTARES-C-1787-1831_item1/P139.html I know that at this time her father is also deceased but I do not have his death date. I would appreciate any help with the baptism record: name of the second and third child, date of baptism, dates of birth. If any one has this couple in their records I would appreciate any additional information.
