RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Help with reading a record

[Richard Francis Pimentel]

Margaret, 

 

You are correct everyone that is baptized in the Catholic church is
exorcised as part of the Sacrament of Baptism. In a baptism conducted at
home (under danger of death) it is done by a lay person (grandmother,
midwife etc. and as such they cannot perform the exorcism part of the
ceremony. It would make sense that later when the baby is brought to the
church, that is performed by the priest and the entry made in the church
register.

Hi,

 

Every child or adult that is baptized is also exorcised.  Before the baptism
there is the exorcism. Any baptized Catholic has been exorcised. All rushed
baptisms performed in the homes were later on completed in the church by the
priest's performing the exorcism and applying the holy oils.  

 

Exorcism is a symbolic cleansing by verbal affirmation of acceptance of
faith and renunciation of all that is not of G-d spoken by the Godparents
and all others attending on behalf of the child and in response to the
Priest's questions. 

 

The action of exorcism is not tied in to an era.  It is part of each baptism
of the Catholic church. First the cleansing, 2nd the anointment with the
oils, and third the name giving and dipping of water.  

 

Hope this helps.

Hi Margaret, that is an excellent explanation. As for my earlier remarks, 
this was the first time that I encountered the mention of exorcism in what 
should have a baptism, and I was taken aback. We don't know what the 
condition of the child was, but, it must have been grave, for the parents 
to take the day old child to the church to be baptized. Once again thanks 
for your explanation - it does correspond to what I was taught so many 
years ago...

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Help with reading a record

[Dano]

That is a pretty good article, Cheri, however, it is quite general, and 
doesn't deal with infants and baptism. The best explanation in this case 
that I've seen, is posted by Margaret, and does correspond w/ what I've 
been taught. I think your example of a baby that perhaps was ill w/ 
seizures or somewhat deformed is particularly on point, in that such 
illnesses and deformities were often attributed to the work of the devil. I 
believe that any parent who had a child that may have been weak, or in 
danger of dying, would seek out the help of G-d, since medical help wasn't 
a reality. Did I mention that this baptism was performed in the late 1600's?

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Help with reading a record

[Dano]

*I'm not sure - I stated such in my "attempted" translation of the record. 
I didn't make up the term - it was written in the narrative, and the 
margin, on the baptismal record. It was listed as an impediment (or not, as 
the margin was not all that informative). The use of that term both in the 
margin and the body of the document was troubling to me, considering that 
this was a baptism of a day old infant.*


*So, without going into the minutia, I believe it means is that baptism was 
considered to be a form of exorcism in church doctrine, and, may have been 
recorded as such, by some of the church's ministers, during a certain 
period, in some church records. This record was from a place that I haven't 
researched previously, and, therefore, I am not versed in the norms of that 
period, in that place, by those particular individuals. I, personally, have 
not ever seen the term used in this manner, but, my 9 years of parochial 
school education provided some insight as to how it may have 
been interpreted. Perhaps, you can enlighten us as to the true meaning of 
the document.*

Thanks for your help Dano.  I’ve become pretty good at deciphering “standard” 
baptismal records, but this was not “standard”.  I’m with Eliseu, what do you 
think exorcism means here?

Karen, this is a tough read for a baptism. The margin appears to be at least in 
part in Latin. It mentions an impediment and there was an exorcism. The 
narrative starts as you say: Miguel son of Manuel Machado Gomes and his wife 
Maria Vieira, natives, residents, and parishioners of Ribeira Seca, parish of 
the Apostle Sao Tiago, Villa de Calheta, Sao George island, born on the 
twenty-eighth day of the month of September in the year one thousand seven 
hundred and nine, refuted in exorcisms in this parish church by me, Antao 
Homem, Vicar. Afterwards baptized at home on the thirty-first day of the 
current month and year. Godmother was Anna Machado, wife of Amaro Lopes de 
Sousa, son of those exorcised, also Manuel Ares, son of Antonio Vieira. All 
natives and residents of this place and parish. I date and sign with the 
witnesses present Padre Gonsalo Pedro Machado and Joam de Mattos da Sylveira, 
day month and year. [signed: Vicar Antao Homen; Padre Gonsalo Pedro Machado; 
Joao Mattos da Sylveira]

Hi Dano!

Would you be so kind to explain what you mean by exorcism, please?

Thank you,

Karen, this is a tough read for a baptism. The margin appears to be at least in 
part in Latin. It mentions an impediment and there was an exorcism. The 
narrative starts as you say: Miguel son of Manuel Machado Gomes and his wife 
Maria Vieira, natives, residents, and parishioners of Ribeira Seca, parish of 
the Apostle Sao Tiago, Villa de Calheta, Sao George island, born on the 
twenty-eighth day of the month of September in the year one thousand seven 
hundred and nine, refuted in exorcisms in this parish church by me, Antao 
Homem, Vicar. Afterwards baptized at home on the thirty-first day of the 
current month and year. Godmother was Anna Machado, wife of Amaro Lopes de 
Sousa, son of those exorcised, also Manuel Ares, son of Antonio Vieira. All 
natives and residents of this place and parish. I date and sign with the 
witnesses present Padre Gonsalo Pedro Machado and Joam de Mattos da Sylveira, 
day month and year. [signed: Vicar Antao Homen; Padre Gonsalo Pedro Machado; 
Joao Mattos da Sylveira]
