The 1849 baptism of my most recent Maiato ancestor is at http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-RG-RABODEPEIXE-B-1846-1851/SMG-RG-RABODEPEIXE-B-1846-1851_item1/P113.html (Rita on bottom right). Her father was Manuel da Costa Maiato and her paternal grandfather was Antonio da Costa Maiato. This Rita married Francisco Pacheco de Mello in 1875. This couple was my maternal grandmother's paternal grandparents. Bill Seidler -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Azores Genealogy" group.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Maiato
Thanks Rick! Maternal grandparents are certainly the same couple as my great-grandmother's (Rita, posted earlier) paternal grandparents: Antonio da Costa Maiato and Antonia Tavares from Rabo de Peixe.

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: MAIATO surname
Great to know, Manoel.Then "da Maia" and "Maiato" mean the same thing and could be used interchangeably by the same person.Obrigado!Doug da Rocha HolmesSacramento, CaliforniaPico & Terceira Genealogist916-550-1618www.dholmes.com Original Message Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: MAIATO surname From: mancesDate: Sat, June 08, 2013 6:10 am To: azores@googlegroups.com Hi Doug,Maiato is someone who was born in Maia, on the Douro region located in the north of Portugal.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: MAIATO surname
Not necessarily. In medieval times, before c. 1450, N. da Maia indicates that the person was a landlord, had the 'senhorio' of the place. Maiato does refer only to the person who was born there.
