my family came from.  I haven't had much luck so far any help would be
greatly appreciated.

Steve,

I'm surprised you've had no luck with Safari.  I can get into the CCA
Website using Safari on my iPad.  I can't get the graphic map of the islands
without Flash Player, but I can get into all of the genealogical records.
Maybe you should try Safari again.

Nancy

Thanks fro that tip. I am using Firefox. I tried Explorer, but it is
super buggy for Macs (MS stopped supporting it in 2005) and it didn't
work either. And no luck with Safari, which I've always found to be
pretty bad. Firefox is usually good in terms of compatibility with
Explorer stuff. Weird.

John, there didn't seem to be any such angel there as you describe.
The woman who helped me was younger, and although she spoke a little
English (way better than my remedial Portuguese), she didn't know too
much about it. There was an older woman who came over to chip in, but
she didn't know much either and spoke no English at all.

I did indeed meet a taxi driver on Pico who had lived in Canada and
spoke excellent English, and she was somewhat helpful - but that was
on Pico.

Clearly another trip is in order!

Steve
