Mozambique Colonial Records

gmauchan

Does anyone have a clue as to where I can find birth, marriage and death records for Mozambique c 1820 - 1850. Two of my several times Great Aunts were left in Quelimane with their Aunt by their mother. They were married off in their teens - one as young as 14 who died within a year of her marriage. The other survived and had two children in Mozambique in 1832 and 1840 by different husbands. Their aunt was married to a Manuel Pedro d’Almeyda a slave trader and the younger of the two girls was married to Caetano Xavier Velasco son of Pedro Xavier Velasco. I would presume that the details were recorded in the Catholic church.

Thanks
