CHRISTENING CERTIFICATE (TRANSLATION)

Christenings' Record Book of the Parish of Espírito Santo of Calheta, Calheta

Number 63. On the sixth of August of the year one thousand eight hundred and ninety, in this church of Espírito Sancto of Calheta, County of Calheta, Diocese of Funchal, I have solemnly baptised and pour the holy oils on an individual of the male gender who I have christened as Jozé, who was born in this village at seven p.m. of the twenty seventh day of July last, legitimate son (first of his name) of António Gomes Jardim and Maria Netto, agricultural labourers, born in this village, where they were married and are parishioners, resident at Lombo das Laranjeiras, grandson on his father's side of Manoel Gomes and Maria Rodrigues Jardim, and on his mother's side of Jacob da Silva and Maria Rodrigues Netto. The Godfather was Francisco Rodrigues Pereira, single, agricultural labourer, resident at Lombo do Salão, and the Godmother was Our Lady, whose Crown was touched by António de Freitas, married, agricultural labourer in this village, both of whom are of my personal acquaintance. And for the record I executed this certificate in duplicate which, after being read and confirmed in the presence of the Godparent, was signed by me but not by the Godfather, who cannot write. Era ut Supra. The Priest, António João de França Dória.
