I can not read this record at all. I only know that it is the marriage record for Manuel Coelho and Maria Vieira. This comes from the Terceira Marriage index.
It is the bottom record on the right side of the page. Any additional information would be appreciated. Thanks, Doreen Caetano

Out of curiosity, can anyone comment on how common a name Coelho is in the Azores. My Coelho line comes from Santa Maria.

Thanks Cheri. When I was in Lisbon, many years ago. I notice a lot of store fronts with The name Coelho, my surname, on them. I figured it was like “Jones or Smith” in the U.S.

Marcos; Thank you so much for this extended reply. Yes, I did know that Coelho meant rabbit but; no, I did not known that most animal, etc. names came about because of the new Christians having to hide being in truth a Jew. That is very interesting to me.
Like many of us whose ancestors are from the Azores, I have ancestors who immigrated to Brazil. I have had a couple of dna matches from there. Although, we have not yet been able to pin down the immigrating ancestor. One line does however; show Menezes in it. Perhaps, we too are cousins. 😊
Again, thank you for this information.

Thank you Angela, I’m starting to get a better picture of it now.

Subject: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Help reading Altares record
Many years ago Doug Holmes commented on this subject. I can't quite recall to which islands he was referring, but he essentially said that one island was predominately Coelho, while another was predominantly Raposo. The point being that it is possible for certain names to predominate on certain islands or at least within certain villages or concelhos. For example Medeiros and Furtado is quite widespread and common throughout most of Sao Miguel. Yes within certain villages, it hardly appears. Azores is so small that it is not surprising certain names are more common or dominant than others.
Costa, Pacheco and Rodrigues are very common but not as easy to associate with a single village, because they are so widespread.

There is no historical evidence that this is true: "most animal, etc. names came about because of the new Christians having to hide being in truth a Jew" and in fact there is much more evidence that this was not the case.
I can provide multiple citations disproving this fact if folks are interested, however, the vast majority are in Portuguese, hence why I haven't provided them here since I know most people on this list don't read fluent Portuguese.
