RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] titles
Hi Geneva,What you are looking at is a Portuguese abbreviation.The little zero after a number, like 1º or 2º means first or second. Spelled out in full it is "primeiro" and "segundo."So Luis Alvares Cabral 2º Senhor de Azurara means he is the second "Senhor de Azurara" which is a title and means he is the land owner of particular property granted by the Portuguese king.Now, I don't know where or what Azurara is, but you can find it on Google.I have a friend in Lisboa who is the hereditary title owner of some similar property called Fronteira. These are noble families. But not all are properties. Another friend and distant cousin is the current title holder of Ávila or maybe it's Bettencourt - I forget (Ávila is a location, but in this case it is the Ávila or Bettencourt family from the Azores).Most of the time you will only find any links to such families from 500 years ago, or more when you hit upon a noble family branch. In your example, there is a 2º and then a 3º holder of Azurara. It can be a title passed down from father to son, but might also be to some other legitimate heir. In this case 3º means "terceiro" or third.Doug da Rocha HolmesSacramento, CaliforniaPico Terceira Genealogist916-550-1618www.dholmes.com Original Message ---- Subject: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] titles From: GENEVA ggervais1...@centurylink.net Date: Mon, April 01, 2013 4:49 pm To: azores@googlegroups.com I tried to sendan attachment from geni, but the page came up blank.
