Father:  Domingos Pires da Covilha

Mother: Maria de Freitas


  • Godfather:  Tomas de Aquines 

  • Godmother: Maria Antunez (daughter of Ana Diaz de Freitas)

and

Catarina is 2nd on the left?

Godparents are (I think) Joao Afonso de Aguiar and his wife Maria Antunes, who is the daughter of Antonio Dias. I'm not sure that's "de functo" after his name or not. It's not de Freitas. And there's only the 1 set of godparents named.
