Cecce, Well...I knew a bit of confusion would get you out .. There are too many Bartolomeu's. There is Bartolomeu I. He married 3 times. When he died, his wife, tried to sell the island. She did sell it to Pedro Correia, who was not a Perestrelo but married to one of the girls. Technically he was the 2nd Captain.  However, when Bartolomeu II reached maturity he appealed to the King who restored his rights. I think Pedro Correia reached the conclusion that coming second would be to his own interests. The island by then was in decline. I hope that  clears things...or not.

OK! Jose, Cece, Miguel and all interested parties... Here's my addition to the "confusion/saga," of the Perestrelo family of Porto Santo... (Pedro Correia (Capitao?) b. abt 1440 and died 1497 Lisbon, Portugal. Pedro son of Goncalo Correia e Margarida de Prado. Pedro married Izeu Perestrelo de Mendonca. Izeu, daughter of Bartholomeu Perestrelo e Brites Furtado de Mendonca, and paternal granddaughter of Filipe Pallastrelli e Catarina Vicente). This Bartholomeu Perestrelo was also married to Isabel Moniz, she daughter of Vasco Martins Moniz e Brites Pereira. Vasco e Brites are my 19th ggparents. Bartholomeu Perestrelo e Isabel Moniz also had a daughter named Filippa Perestrelo Moniz Melo, born abt 1452 Porto Santo who married Christopher Columbus, their son was Diego Columbus. Cece --- I have Guimar Vaz Teixeira's daughter of Tristao Vaz Teixeira (Capitao) e Branca Teixeira. Guimar married Bartholomeu Perestrelo (Capitao). Guimar and this Bartholomeu Perestrelo were the parents of another by the name of Bartholomeu Perestrelo who married Aldonca Rodrigues da Camara and Solanda Teixeira. As for the two Diogo/s that you mentioned in an email to me (also below)... here's what I have...(2) Diogo Perestrelo (Capitao) son of (1) Diogo Soares Perestrelo e Joanna Castro. (2)Diogo married Maria da Camara (Maria daughter of Gaspar Homem de Gouveia e Filippa Cabral da Camara). (1) Diogo e Joanna Castro were the parents of (2) Diogo. I hope that I have all "these," Bartholomeu/s and Diogo/s correctly posted in my data base...Let me know if you have something different...

Pat, I think you have the same information I posted in my latest one. It seems that I created a bit of this confusion. If we name Bartolomeu as I, II, or III it helps. Bart I married Isabel Moniz and had Bart II and Filipa from this marriage. I didn't know that Bart III was allowed to marry Soldana after murdering Aldonça. Well, they justice is slow.   José Fernandes ________________________________ From: Pat Corbera <PatriciaCorbera@comcast.net> To: JOSE FERNANDES <jose.fernandes@rogers.com>; prt-madeira@rootsweb.com Sent: Tuesday, May 8, 2012 12:47:09 PM Subject: Re: [PT-MADEIRA] Perestrelo Ancestry - Attn: Jose, Cece and Miguel OK!
