[AZORES-Genealogy] Meaning of piedade
One of the birth records I am looking at on the NEPS site states the person's birth info and then the term piedade. Google Translate says piedade means pity or piety. Could someone share what it means in relation to a birth record? I'd appreciate it.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Meaning of piedade
Hi Deb, If the preceding words are Nossa Senhora da + piedade, they are probably referring to the parish of Nossa Senhora da Piedade (Our lady of Piety), located in Ponta Garça, Villa Franco do Campo (or Villa Franca for short) in São Miguel. Here's a link to a photo of the inside: http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ficheiro:Igreja_de_Nossa_Senhora_da_Piedade,_Ponta_Garça,_nave_central,_Vila_Franca_do_Campo,_ilha_de_São_Miguel,_Açores.JPG You could probably google it and find more info that particular parish.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Meaning of piedade
Altino, Thanks for the help. Unfortunately, the only word preceding piedade is born. Piedade isn't capitalized either. Everyone else in this family group was born in Sao Mateus, Pico, so I'm inclined to think it isn't a reference to the parish in Sao Miguel. I will check it out nevertheless. Anyone with other thoughts/suggestions? Happy Labor Day. Deb When I searched for ancestors, I found friends!

Piedade is a place in Pico. Without seeing the record, it's hard to say what you are looking at. Here are the online transcriptions from the NEPS site for Piedade, Pico: http://www.neps.ics.uminho.pt/geneweb/gwd.exe?b=piedade;lang=en Cheri Mello Listowner, Azores-Gen Researching: Vila Franca, Ponta Garca, Ribeira Quente, Ribeira das Tainhas, Achada -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.
