I’m perplexed.  Question #1:  Is this the same Izabel?   Question #2:  Did she marry her father-in-law?  Am I just confused from doing this too long?  Help, please.

I believe they are the same person but she did not marry her father-in-law.

Her husband Manuel Joaquim de Bairros may have sometimes used his father's last name Raposo instead of de Bairros.  Her father-in-law's name was Manuel Caetano (not Joaquim) Raposo.

I had an ancestor marry his mother-in-law. His wife died in childbirth, so he needed someone to take care of the little ones. His mother-in-law was widowed. Even though she was the children's grandmother, it would still be considered inappropriate (for that time) for her to live in the house without being married (Joao Ventura told me this). So he married his mother-in-law so grandma could raise the kids.

Thanks Cheri and Bill for your insight. 

 

Bill; Yes, you’re right about the middle names and what you say, makes sense given how they “played loose” with ther surnames!

 

Thanks you both,
