Hello, Do not count San Francisco County out for Portuguese marriages for Alameda county residents. My great-grandparents were residents of Alameda County (Fremont area) and traveled to San Francisco as that same time period.....they were married at Our Lady of Guadalupe Church....and i have heard of other Portuguese who seemed to do the same from outside areas. That church no longer exists and I believe the records are at St. Peter and Paul (the one in the Italian district....North Beach)......I found mine by going to the church. ........did not look at the county records.
