Thank you Cheri and JR - really helpful as I work through the family names!
I think I have additional records from Jeromymo’s grandfather Sebastiao Antonio
Pimentel. Would appreciate it if others can help confirm I have the names
correct.

Hi Janet C,
Many older spellings have the "y" instead of the "i." So he was recorded as
Jeronymo, which in modern Portuguese would be Jeronimo. Record Jeronimo in
your genealogy program and make a note that he is recorded with the older
spelling of Jeronymo.
You are lucky. Grandparents aren't rec
Hello Mary and others,
I believe the below link is my Jerome although would appreciate help with the
name in the margin as there appears to be a Y within the name. He was born Nov
(1?) in 1852 which is slightly off from his obit and gravestone. Son of Manuel
Sebastiao Pimentel and Maria de Ro
Hello Janet and others,
Is it possible that your Jerome Sebastian Pimentel was originally named
Jacinto Pimentel? I found a Jacinto baptized in Fajazinha on, I believe,
November 1 1855. Here is the link and what I understand it to read.
Please chime in if you see it saying something else.
Janet,
There aren't too many men in the 1850s time period named Jerome. Unless
someone liked the name in the village and they all used it. Let's hope not.
You have a date of birth. Go to Tombo.pt for Flores here:

Thanks to all that replied - very helpful as I learn more about how to do
effective research!
Bill - Thank you very much for the help with the translations - really
appreciate it!

my great great grandfather. His detai
Below is my take on the parent and grandparent names for Ermalinda, José,
and two named João. I see no indication that they are related to each
other or the family you seek. The link you provided to a record for
"Conceição" has no Conceição that I can see on that page. The closest I
see is
Hello Cheri,
Thanks for the advice on how to work backwards. I don’t have any information on
their marriages (except those that married in CA) so might be at a dead end but
will keep at it! Could you please let me know what the parent and grandparents
names are in the 3 records as I can’t make
Hi Janet,
Your 3 "siblings" aren't siblings. They have different parents, different
grands.
You need to start with just your immigrant and find his baptism and his
marriage if he married there. And then go from there. Trying to build a
family off of a Maria de Jesus won't work. It's too common of
Hello,
I believe I have found the first baptism records of the Costa side of my
family who settled in Napa in the late 1800's along with the Pimental
family. Several Costas married several Pimentals including my great great
grandparents Jerome Sebastian Pimental and Conceicao Marie Costa.
