Thanks Margaret. It could be the island of Terceira since Faial would still be the departure. It certainly looks possible. I will forward this on to my cousin and we will try to research further. I haven't seen many Pinheiros (or Pines) on Faial. Maybe they were on Tercira. Thanks again for all your effort,

There 2 places; Praia do Norte e Praia do Almoxarife in Faial. Praia do Norte was depopulated due to volcanic activity...I would start with Almoxarife records.

A list of the freguesias (villages) and churches on Faial are on the Azores Genweb below. Nothing seems close to me. Maybe it will to other Faial researchers. http://homepage.mac.com/kmacardoza/Genealogy/faial.html Cheri Mello Listowner, Azores-Gen Researching: Vila Franca, Ponta Garca, Ribeira Quente, Ribeira das Tainhas, Achada -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.
