Hey folks.... Anyone of you know anything about the family ANES in Madeira??? Theres this guys, FERNAO DE ANES (my 12th great-grandfather) that married INES AFONSO and are the parents of CATARINA VAZ (all from Ribeira Brava) This Catarina married in 1570 Sebastiao de Abreu...so it means that Fernao and his wife Ines are even from earlier dates then 1550.... So i was wondering if anyone ever heard about him or anyone else from his family?? Thank you Leandro
There is an old story (?) that claims that the first children born in Madeira were named Adam and Eve. Their father was Gonçalo Eanes or Anes or Enes. He had lands in what is today's São Gonçalo on the east side of Funchal. In the early 16th century there were Anes in Caniço which is not too far from this place.

In it I show two daughters of John Drummond and Branca Affonco with the name Annes they are Caterina Annes and Izabel Annes Escorcio both born in Santa Cruz about the 1440's. Izabel married Joao Leira. Perhaps Branca was related to the Annes family. Also I have a Rodrigo Annes of Santa Cruz father of Izabel Rodrigues Andrada b abt 1488 both died in Calheta. Izabel married Pedro Berenguer Leminhana of Calheta. Also a Pedro Eannes married Izabel Goncalves dau. of Goncalo Airies Ferreira abt 1460 Scot Austin
