RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Help with the name of the groom's father.
I am seeing Ouincilas. I would say it is the way the priest wrote Wencelas (the Ou making the W sound). The date of the record is 26 Dec which is the feast of St Stephen also known as boxing day in England. It reminds me of the carol “Good King Wencelas looked out on the feast of Stephen” but that was not written until 1853.

It's *Estanislau, *albeit spelled differently. This one look like Estincislao. JR On Sunday, October 22, 2017 at 7:18:55 PM UTC-4, Cheri Mello wrote: > > Sandra P, > > It's not a "Q."

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Help with the name of the groom's father.
Sandra P, It's not a "Q." I see the word "Quaresma" 3 lines below. The handwritten "Q" looks closer to a fancy "2." To me, it looks like an "O." BUT I can distinctly make out the last 6 letters: ceslão. The only saint that comes to mind is Wenceslas (as in the Christmas carol). However, they didn't use "W" in the Portuguese alphabet. I don't know enough Portuguese to tell you what they substituted for that sound, if indeed it is Wenceslas. (Makes you wonder what ___ceslão's parents were thinkingGood morning Father. We have another baby. It is another boy. We already used Manuel, Francisco, José, João, and Antonio. We would like something a bit different. Priest checks out the holy calendar and see's that it is ___ceslao's feast day. And there you have it! I'm completely making this up, but it makes for a good story).
