Hello

Can someone help me clarify the marriage of Manuel de Matos and it looks like Maria?
  • Brides full name
  • Both Bride and Grooms parents
  • Year

I can decipher some of it:

On 28 September of the year?

Groom: Manuel de Matos
Father: Manuel de Matos
Mother: Maria Josepha?
Event: Marriage in Ponta Garça, São Miguel
Date: 28 September (year not fully legible)

Thanks

Todd

I see Francisco da Costa on the right. Are you sure you sent us the correct link?

I have quite a few Mnauel de Matos from Ponta Garca and the nearby villages. Can you give some info on the next generation, maybe I can link them for you.

Hello JR,


I think his father shared the same name, Manuel de Matos. His wife looks like Lucia De Jesus. I could have sworn I found he and Lucia's marriage yesterday but now I cannot find it.

She is Luzia do Espirito Santo. I have them in my genealogy program.

Unfortunately, this line is dead end because some marriages are missing from Ponta Garca.

I have nothing else on them either. However, I'm not related to them. They are probably in my genealogy program because I imported Shirley Allegre's file into mine years ago.

What years would you suggest to look for Baptisms for both Manuel & Luisa?

I think this might be Antonia's parents marriage but it says Manuel de Matos and Luzia da Conceição (instead of Luzia do Espirito Santo like the marriage you posted says).

This Manuel's parents are Manuel de Matos and Ana Furtada.  Here is Manuel's first marriage:

I'm related to Antonia de Jesus' husband, Miguel Furtado. That's why there's a little bit on them in my program.

JR says this is the end of the line ancestors (assuming he means Manuel de Mattos and Luzia do Espirito Santo). I checked Rodrigo Rodrigues. Nothing there.

Here is the baptism of Luzia from the above marriage:

I think this is Manuel from the same marriage but the baptism gives his parents as Manuel da Costa and Ana Furtada.  A tree on Geneanet suggests his father is Manuel da Costa de Matos.
