Hi all, I found an old posting on an Azores site from a woman named Connie. She wrote the post in 1999. Unfortunately, her e-mail is no longer active. I am hoping she is following this Google group or that someone might either know how to reach her or recognize the family she was inquirying about in '99. I believe we may have relatives in common. I have pasted her original e-mail below.
Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to offer.
