Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Obit help

Although I agree that the script was not consistent (imagine that) so Santa does not look like it starts with the same letter as Silveira, I still think it might be "Santa". Here is Maria Rita's page on CITCEM which gives her father as Antonio Pereira Silveira Santa

The word after the father's name is not Santa. It's not the same "S" as in Silveira. It says she died with no will and left 6 kids. Not that the kids witnessed her death. Cheri Mello Listowner, Azores-Gen Researching: São Miguel island: Vila Franca, Ponta Garca, Ribeira Quente, Ribeira das
