Help with maternal grandfather’s name

[leonor....@gmail.com]

Hi! Record No. 33, maternal grandfather's name, I can make out Manoel Pacheco, but the last name looks like Tarrabazana, I have searched it on google but nothing comes up. Anyone? If it is Tarrabazana, does anyone know anything about this name?

I read Manual Pacheco Tarrabagana. I would say it is not a very flattering alcunha.

Google doesn't recognize that either. It's a mystery!

I read the same: Tarrabazana, and I’ve never seen that name before. It doesn’t sound like a Portuguese name. Maybe Italian, Spanish??...

The ENTIRE Internet has nothing on Tarrabagana or Tarrabazana, very frustrating.

[Cheri Mello]

Go find this Manuel Pacheco "Tarrabazana" marriage and all his kids. See how the name gets spelled in all those records. It may be a misspelling or perhaps the priest was hard-of-hearing or the scribe couldn't read the notes and took a guess at Tarrabazana.

Thanks everyone! I will do what Cheri recommended and see where it takes me. I have a feeling the last name is just Pacheco, the other name may have been an apelido.

He is simply Manuel Pacheco on his daughter's marriage with no mention of that puzzling word.  It also shows that he is natural of São Pedro parish in Vila Franca.

Manuel reference starts about 7 lines down on next page.

Thank you Bill. But of course it shows a different name for his wife, this man is very frustrating!!

Yes I get the frustration.  I have at lease two feminine ancestors that started using different devotional names.  I think this is likely the case here that she became known Maria da Trinidade instead of Maria do Rosario.  More baptisms of their children might help sort it out.

Yes, my great grandmother was known as Maria do Rosario and Monica de Jesus.
