Hello Group--
I am researching my mother's paternal line (Madruga) from Freguesia of
Lajes do Pico on the island of Pico. My question is, since I was not
brought up Roman Catholic, would there be any microfilm record
anywhere on the reading or posting of the banns? The church was
Santa Trindade.
Anything like that for Hayward CA that includes the years 1925 to 1928?
