How does someone in the U.S. go about finding marriage records in the Azores (specifically Terceira)? The story was always that Avo came over alone after being married by proxy (1920-1921). I would think that would involve lots of paperwork but not necessarily church records. I suspect it is just a story because I've found conflicting information in the Ellis Island database and in passenger line records. Is this the kind of thing you'd need to hire someone (on Terceira) to research? Has anyone had any success with this? Thank you in advance for your help and suggestions.
