Ricardo Micael Teles compiled many inscriptions on graveyards around Goa. Not all of them are online. Here is a list I was able to put together from the his bibliography published D Aleixo Manuel da Costa in his 3 volume work "Dicionario de Literatura Goesa": 

Graveyards of the priests in the Cathedral in Old Goa (This is separate book)

Coats of arms in the graveyards in the district of Goa (I think by "district of Goa" he means the island of Tissuari) Published in Boletim do Instituto Vasco da Gama in No. 24 1934) through 1937 (series of articles). If you google “Boletim do Instituto Vasco da Gama” you will find his articles.

Coats of arms and epitaphs in the Museum of the Monastery of St. Francis of Assisi in Old Goa. Published in 1937 in "O Oriente Portugues"

He also published the history and inventories of several churches in Goa. 

All of his publications are in Portuguese.

Some, but not all, are online. For example, some issues of "O Oriente Portugues" are online.

If you have a specific interest I suggest you read "Dicionario de Literature Goesa" by Aleixo Manuel da Costa. There you will find his biography and bibliography.

You may also be able to find the publications of Ricardo Micael Teles, O Oriente Portugues, and Boletim do Instituto Vasco da Gama (hard copies) as well as Aleixo Manuel da Costa’s book in the Central Library or in the Library of St. Xavier's College in Goa. You may want to try the Library of St. Xavier's College first. (better organized and the condition of the books is impeccable).
