Joseph, perhaps we've been working from the wrong perspective on this 
problem. Do you have info on Joam that you can share with us? If not, 
whomever the ancestor that you've traced furthest back w/ most info. 
Several of us in this group have been researching Ponta Garca & VFdC for a 
long time - one of us must have the person you're looking for.

Joseph, my ancestry membership is now expired.

I'm not sure I understand your note regarding the marriage record for Joao
which reades he was wed on July 7-1783.  The record states his parents were
both deceased and so they were.

Matheus died Sep 1st 1773 and Josefa died May 21st, 1788.

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Joam da Costa (Might be his birth record -- can't really read it) Help!

2014-03-22 Thread pico
Hello Joseph,I couldn't resist your challenge.What is clear is the "ao" ending. That leaves one with a lot fewer choices for names.Expanding on that, it is pretty clear there is an "l" before the "al" and that now gives you "lao" and once you see that, you can see the "u" before the "l" and before the "u" you see a large "C" and there is nothing left to choose but Niculao and I am going with that.Moving over to the parents, the father is Mathias, not Matheus. So it's Matias da Costa and Josefa. But her second name is maybe "Parobo" and I don't recognize that as a real name. So for another reason, you must find another example from another child and hope it's more clear.As for Isabella's comment about "legitimo" I looked over the following baptisms from this priest and he isn't using that word on any of them. But what is lacking in your record is the phrase "e de sua mulher" (and of his wife) which is not in all the records, but in many of them. The ones where that phrase is lacking might mean those couples are not married, but there are so many that I doubt it. You would have to study all these couples and find or not find their marriages to see whether this priest is simply not consistent. You will see on page 0026 the baptism of a child named Agostinho and the father is another "Niculao."Good luck!Doug da Rocha HolmesSacramento, CaliforniaPico & Terceira Genealogist916-550-1618www.dholmes.com

Joseph, I neglected to mention that I didn't see Joam's mother listed in the record (which is somewhat odd). As for the Grandparents, they weren't listed in the early records. I'm not sure, but, I believe they weren't added until the early, or, mid 1800's'. Possibly Cheri, Doug, or JR can chime in.

Joseph and Dano.
My two cents worth: Joao son of Mathias da Costa and Josefa  (can't make 
out with certainty the first word on the second line), looks like do Paroto 
(which doesn't make sense to me).

Joseph, This is indeed difficult to read, but not impossible. Joam's name is 
mentioned at the beginning " legitimate (abbrv) son of "Mathias" da Costa 
native of this freguesia of Sam Miguel of Villa Franca do Campo nasceo (was 
born) on the 4th day of the month of September 1751, and, was baptized in this 
same church of Sam Miguel, matriz of the aforementioned Villa, parish of his 
parents on the sixth day of the current month and year by me, Maoel de Medeiros 
, Curate of this matriz. Godfather was Mathias de Andrade, single, parishioner 
of this Matriz, and witnesses Pedro Corea, and Miguel Pereyra, and for the 
record I dated this day, month and as above.

Joseph, I neglected to mention that I didn't see Joam's mother listed in 
the record (which is somewhat odd). As for the Grandparents, they weren't 
listed in the early records. I'm not sure, but, I believe they weren't 
added until the early, or, mid 1800's'. Possibly Cheri, Doug, or JR can
