Hello Hermano and Happy New Year! Thanks for the offer to help with my "Valente" mystery. My problem is I have nothing to go on except that a neighbor to the old structure/ruin remembers that it used to belong to a family named Valente and they ended up in Fayal. But the place has been a ruin for years....the roof collapsed a very long time ago because it's full of things growing inside it. I tried going to the NEPS site this morning but couldn't get Madelena genealogies to come up. I'm going to look in the CCA site at the "imovel" properties where they show the historic properties and try to again glean some information from surrounding buildings that they have made note of.....maybe I can deduce something from them since I didn't see this particular structure listed. If you have any " Valente" in Pico, in the 1700 or 1800"s I'd love to know about them! Especially, Bandeiras, St. Lucia and Madelena. Again, a happy 2013 filled with Blessings to you, Nancy Jean From: lagoe...@hotmail.com To: azores@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Valente from Pico Date: Sun, 30 Dec 2012 23:55:04 +0000
Nancy Jean I did'tt realise that I had a few Valente's in my data base. Without going through them all I don't know about their origin but if you have names and dates I will be glad to check for a posible match. Happy New Year and God Bless.

I'm hoping that someone who researches Pico may have seen the surname "Valente". I'm not familiar with this as a common surname and wonder if anyone else is familiar with the "Valente" name. I'm especially interested in the Valente family from from Bandeiras. Any insight would be appreciated.
