Liz,

The priest/scribe is writing the dates with numbers. I've underlined it, and I'm sure you can now figure it out by checking the one above and below:

This time period is very brief. They just record if they died, their spouse, and if they received sacraments. Her husband (also in the margin) is abbreviated as P° Thome. So Pedro Thome. And she received the sacraments.

Honestly Cheri. Those are numbers 😳 to me looks like LG and declbbq. Maybe a 4
Wow. I’m embarrassed.  But I still don’t know what number they would be

Liz,

The date of LG would be either 16 or 26. I looked at the record above where he spelled it out and it's 26. Numbers that look like a G would be a 6.

The year is 1664. Those Gs are 6s.

Holy cow.   I would have never guessed.
Thought it was a different type of Roman numerals or Greek 

Thanks again Cheri

Umm, I think our only choices are Portuguese or Latin, so you can rule out Greek :)
