I found the marriage of Jose D'Almeida and Miguelina De Torres. (Yay!).
Without all your help and learning about the way they interchanged names- I
would have totally missed this record. (Maybe given up!). So, I'm confused
on how to enter these names correctly in the familysearch tree or any
Yes, and when doing research, it's best to keep all possibilities open. I
don't want to mislead our members who are new to genealogy!

Hi Cheri, Sometime back JR, and I shared a circumstance where the
Grandparents were incognito. Since the person was not someone critical to
