Surprisingly, MAIO, has records beginning in 1812 & the records (though there are many lapses) go through to 1910. There is only one church - Nossa Senhora da Luz.

THE RECORDS - MY TRANSLATIONS -
Baptisms
The very first page that I did there were people from SAO NICOLAU. In transcribing these records I will put "of SN" (in bold) in the body of the transcription if it applies (or from SANTO ANTAO, from BOA VISTA etc.)
Since I am unfamiliar with this priest's handwriting & since the records are so old I may not be able to figure some things out so I will just put a ? with my best guess. There is very little information provided by the priest on the early baptisms -- only the child's name, the parent's name/names & the godparents & where they are from if they are not from MAIO.
The following are from Volume 1812 - 1831 which begins on page 8
1812
page eight: MAY On 5/25/1812, Domingas was bap, b _____ d/o Maria Fernandes, gods - Fabio Rodrigues & Justina Fernandes; On 5/28/1812, Jose was bap, b _____ s/o Patronilla Roza, single, gods - Joze J? ?Thimo of SAO NICOLAU, & Luiza das Neves.
