Fortes ----- & Fortes da Cruz & Fortes Evora


I had somehow overlooked the fact that the mother of my second great grandmother's older half sister was Maria Andreza Fortes.  This is b/c she later was known as Maria da Cruz OR Maria da Cruz Boa Vista (the same name the second wife was known as).  She was the first wife of Manoel Jose Duarte da Conceicao of Boa Vista 

So Rosa Maria da Cruz # 1 (daughter of Maria Andreza Fortes)  who is also known as / was first known as  Rosa Maria Fortes (& in fact that is the name that she used on her marriage certificate).   In this work I will put her with " the various Rosa Maria da Cruz".
