It depends.
Ernesto do Canto made partial indices for select freguesias and select
events on Sao Miguel. A few marriages from Sao Miguel have been published
in the Insulana books. I've typed up a marriage index for Achada from the
beginning to 1723 or so. Carlos Machado also did a lot for Sao Migu
Yippee!
Thank you both so much for posting mention of this index!! I believe I've
finally got a solid lead toward solving a bit of a family mystery!
Are there indices for the other islands-- besides the *Casais das Flores e
do Corvo*? Don't know how I missed this invaluable resource.

Thank you for explaining the wording for this parish and time frame. Since
I learned of the Terceira marriage Index, I have found many marriage dates
(year) for my Terceira ancestors.

Hi Cathy,
Welcome to the group. The vocabulary in the Portuguese records is
relatively limited and fairly easy to learn. After that, deciphering the
handwriting and abbreviations of the some of the older records may be the
bigger challenge.

Cathy B,
The Azores GenWeb has resources to help you "read" the records. But that's
not your problem. You need your freguesia (village). No one on this list
will help you until you know FOR SURE what your freguesia (village) is.
Many people on this list who help out are working and not retired. We
You're referencing a marriage that occurred in Nossa Senhora Mae de Deus,
Povoacao. Everything in this record refers to the village of Povoacao, on
the island of Sao Miguel; The "Ermida" referred to is Nossa Senhora da

I have no question this time; just a finding that I found interesting. I'm
sure many on this list are familiar with "Archivo dos Açores" by Ernesto do
Canto, 1883, but I just found it on google books.

Sandra,
I think you have all the relevant data correct as far as names, date, ages,
and parishes. They are all from Biscoitos except for the groom's mother
who is from Altares. The lines you ask about are standard marriage script

Yes You should look in the records of NS da Graca in Fayal da Terra on Sao
Miguel. Usually when the person is from another island the record will have the
word for island “ilha” followed with the name of the island.

Hello group:
I am trying to find my 4th great grandfather Jose de Medeiros's baptismo

Its not another island that is being referred to. Instead, I believe the line
you're referring to is stating that the marriage conformed to Roman Catholic
Church.
The line, that is equal to being one below the margin note...this is what I see:
Santa Madre Egreja Catholica Apostolica Romana.
