Clarify Marriage Record Manuel de Matos Ponta Garça

[brow...@gmail.com]

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

The record is here on the right: https://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-VF-PONTAGARCA-C-1779-1810/SMG-VF-PONTAGARCA-C-1779-1810_item1/index.html?page=40

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?

"Oops, I got that wrong. I'll repost as soon as I track down the record again. Sorry for the mix-up! 🙄

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 have Manuel de Matos daughter Antonia's marriage here on the left:  https://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-VF-PONTAGARCA-C-1779-1810/SMG-VF-PONTAGARCA-C-1779-1810_item1/index.html?page=157.

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.

[Cheri Mello]

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.

[John JMR]

Has this been resolved and these the correct ancestors, Miguel de Matos and Antonia de Jesus? Because I have them going back 3 or four generations.

This is where I stand so far:

Antonia De Jesus  

Parents: Manuel De Matos & Luzia

Manuel De Matos

Parents: Manuel Da Costa De Matos & Ana Furtada

Luzia 

Parents: Antônio Pimentel da Costa & Maria da Conceição

The Pimentel and Mots makes sense for my mothers Furtado side.

Does this look correct? I am going to start work on Antônio Pimentel da Costa & Maria da Conceição this weekend.
