The maternal grandfather. There's a word after his name (Francisco Manuel) that I can't make head or tails.
Right side, very last line on the page:

And here's another baby. Left side, 10th line at the end:

Thanks, Cheri

Cheri, pretty much like you see it.  “Manacho” the 1nd record shows Manaco.  It is most common as “Menacho”

Thanks, have the "h" appear and disappear was bugging me. I haven't encountered "Menacho" before. Thanks for all your help! Cheri

No problem.  That’s because it’s pronounced as the letter K.  Remember seeing Parocho and later Paroco for priests? Same happening here.  Rabo de Peixe has the funkiest surnames.
