Translation Assistance

Wondering if anyone is able to read (and potentially translate) the baptismal entry on the bottom left hand side. I cannot read the child's name but believe it reads ...... daughter of Manoel de Mattos and his wife Maria de Sylveira with the child's date of birth possible being 27 December 1702. Thanks Tony

Hello Tony,

The child's name is Theodosia and think you have the parents correct.  The date of birth is either 21 or 31 of December 1702 and baptism date of 3 January 1703.  It get even harder to read after that.  I think this is her marriage here:

G'day Bill,

Based on your response and re-examining the document, I am inclined to go with 31 December 1703.

WOW - Finding the marriage document is amazing, shame about the quality of this document. I can make out Theodosia's name and that of her parents but cannot see the names of the parents for Matteus Teixeira. Any ides?  According to Sao Jorge marriage index records, the groom's full name is Mateus Teixeira Machado.

Cheers Tony

Glad to help Tony (or at least attempt to)

I can't make everything out but I think it is Mathias Teixeira Machado son of Manuel Machado Teixeira, deceased,  and his wife Ana Pereira, parishioners of Nossa Senhora das Neves, in Norte Grande.  

If I have those names right, I can't find this couple in the SJ Marriage database.

Hey Tony,

Mateus Teixeira Machado is indeed son of Manuel Machado Teixeira and Ana Pereira

I am also a descendant from that line. From which child of Theodosia do you stem from?

Olá Primo Gustavo or as we say in Australia,  G'day Cuz,

My relationship to Theodosia is through her brother Jorge de Mattos Pereira with Jorge being my 4xgreat grandtather. I'd be very interested in exchanging information and family trees and suggest this might best be done off site through personal e-mails. I'll drop you a line shortly.

For those who may be following this thread, please contact me if you would like to know more.

Regards Tony
