I need some help with a single word on a baptism record. The attachment has the word highlighted and the record is the top entry (Maria) on this LINK. It's located within the sentence that identifies the padrinho.
"The godfather is Captain Manuel Camello SOMETHING of the baptized."
Typically something like that indicates a family connection. I'm thinking it's a different spelling for grandfather. That's my best guess. Let me know what you all think. Thank you

According to
António Ornelas Mendes and Jorge Forjaz in
Genealogias da Ilha Terceira, Volume II, it is Avô.
page 745: "...5 Maria, b. em S. Sebastião a 12.9.1676, sendo padrinho, seu avô, o capitão Manuel Camelo."

Thank you for the help Bill!

I believe I downloaded them (9 volumes) from the CCA several years ago but I can't find it there now. It may have back when they had the Terceira Marriage index which they also no longer have.
They have it on SCRIBD combined into one large volume but I'm not sure of their process/cost.
