Granja de São Pedro da Silva?

Question

My aunt was born in a village named Granja de São Pedro da Silva. I was doing some searches in internet in order to get more info and I have found some conflicting information.

Could someone tell me if such village exists or not, and if so, what is the freguesia and conselho? A link to a map showing the nearby villages would be very much appreciated.

Answer 1

"conselho"  is a county or a city and surrounding areas

"fregesia" is sub areas of a "conselho"

I couldn't find "Granja de São Pedro da Silva" I would need more info.
