I have an Alvaro Gomes who married Maria Dias back in 1694 in S. Antao. Both were born in Sao Vicente and so were their parents, Francisco de Gois and Maria Francisca (Alvaros' parents), and Domingos Gomes and Anto'nia Dias (Maria's parents). That seems to be it for me from Sao Vicente. Luis Beal "Not to know what happened before we were born is to remain perpetually a child.
