After the godfather, which as Sam said is Antonio Homem da Costa (who is single), it is mostly the normal church script as Cheri said. I think the confusing part is that they did not name a godmother. Instead it says that for Madrinha they invoked Nossa Senhora touching the crown of the statue and it names Francisco Pereira Cachete (a married stonemason). I assume he must the one that did the invocation or is named as a witness to it. I am not familiar with this practice.
My translation might not be exact but I hope it gets the gist of it. Bill Seidler -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Azores Genealogy" group.
