TANTUNA

 

======================================================================== 

TANTUNA

 My grandmother's younger half sister - Josepha Antonia Encarnacao - had an ancestor who had a name & an "Also Known As" which was Tantuna.  This name is not seen very often in the records - but it is seen enough that I wanted to make a tab.   ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

This is a pertinent record in my research: 

 1878 -  daLBaps1875-95 -  ********      THIS COMPILER CONNECTS TO THIS NEXT FAMILY -- SEE EXPLANATION AT THE blog ENTRY FOR JOSEPHA ANTONIA ENCARNACAO.     136/54, On 7/14/1878, Isabel of Atras de Lombo was bap, b. 6/30/78, d/o Manoel Joao Gomes (x) (s/o Joao Manoel Gomes (x) & Rosa Gomes Tantuna (x)) & Antonia Isabel de Brito (x) (d/o Francisco Carlos Gomes & Isabel Rosa de Brito), gods - Jose Antonio Custodio (x) & Rosa Anna Lima (x)  (361/54).  Isabel & my grandmother (Maria Antonia Encarnacao/Varela/Almeida) share a half sister, namely, Josepha Antonia Encarnacao. The baptised child will most likely be known as Isabel Antonia de Brito ***********

Sometimes unusual names can lead you to other names that you might be looking for.  

Also, when I was unfamiliar with the names I initially wrote this name as Fantuma. 

On 5/28/2022, this compiler heard from a number of individuals who indicated that TANTUN was a place & not a surname.  Another individual indicated that there is a place called TANTUM in Brava.  But, since there are so many who call themselves this in the Sao Nicolau records I am listing them here:  

The oldest Tantuna would be AntoniO Rosa Tantuna - b. probably 1770.
