Hi Cherie,
Hope all is going well. I was just looking for a registration form for the
Salt Lake Conference in June. I didn't see any. I'd like to register, please.

Marcos, Thank you for the excellent explanation.
Now, I just need to figure out when the de/da/do/dos is referring to a holy
name/saint, a location or a family. But; we all thrive on challenges, don’t

Thanks everyone. This came up as a suggestion from google for me but I
think that first letter is definitely a T. I will keep looking for more
records to see if anything else comes up.

This is true in my family, my brother’s are de Oliveira while I’m Oliveira.
We joked that dad had a few drinks before he went to register me and not
only named me the wrong name (I was supposed to be Francisca) but also
forgot the de, lol.

Hi everyone,
Maybe as I was born and brought up in Brazil and speak Portuguese as my first
language I could try to shed some light in issue of surname suffix.
As Cheri said, regardless of having the suffix or not the surname remains the
same.
In the past people added suffixes, such as da, de, d

Yes, that does seem odd. Which island are you doing and are you extracting the

I’m looking at deaths for another island. And indeed there are times when
there are one or more deaths every day for weeks, with families losing
several members. So sad.
And then there are months with only a few deaths.
But I found one stretch of two months with no deaths at all and no notation
