Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Name of child

I would stick with Tereza. Study the L's, there is complete bottom loop. This first letter stops at the bottom. The dotted 'i' is perhaps accidental. May be even Terezia. See here for clear Tereza, no bottom loop like the L.

The parents of the baby may be cousins and are waiting on the dispensation to marry, but went ahead and started a family. On the other hand, maybe they are cousins and became "weak of the flesh" (the words of the day) or were jonesing for each other (that's probably American slang). She batted her

There are lots of Fragoso's in Rosario de Lagoa. Have you looked there? I think it reasonable to assume the Fragoso's have their origins in Lagoa. Almost all the one's I have encountered, and those posted here, trace back to Lagoa. Also, you may find some Ponta Delgada. JR On Sunday, February
