Edgar, First, I want to thank you for all the time you have taken to help me. I have now connected with my "cousin" Eleanor and we have compared many records. What you sent seemed to be a perfect fit until we realized that this Mary P Joseph died at age 89 in the Azores. All the names and facts were too good to be true. Our great great grandmother Mary P (Madruga) is listed in the census as bookkeeper for the family grocery store on friend street. There were in fact 3 Mary P's. The first was the grandmother to Manuel Madruga - the one married to Phillipa (Cardoza) Madruga. The 2nd was an infant that died at birth. The 3rd was the oldest girl of Manuel and Phillipa, grandmother to ELEANOR - my long lost cousing. So if Mary P (1) worked in the grocery store she could not have died in the Azores - unless she went back. So far I have been unable to find any record of her in Gloucester. Also, we have now confirmed that Manuel Madruga, born June 15, 1853 was naturalized in Gloucester in August, 1894. He arrived from Peak (Pico) about October 15, 1870. Any advice is appreciated.

Iy shows Manuel birthplace as Pico. From my family research in Pico, I know that Pereira Madruga is seen often in the Lajes das Pico Concelho, Cardoso is also concentraed in that area. Since you have a birthdate, you should take look throug the parish records at the NNEPS site for the area. http://www.ghp.ics.uminho.pt/genealogias.html Eric Edgar On Sat, Feb 2, 2013 at 5:39 PM, Ginny Swinson <riverv...@gis.net> wrote: I have been following your group for several months and am amazed at how so many of you have been able to locate where you ancestors came from. I have been researching intermittently for 50 years and have had little success. My great-grandparents, Manuel Perry Madruga (b. about February 15, 1852, Azores) married Phillipa Perry Cardoza, (b. about August 25, 1865, Azores) in St Ann's church, Gloucester, MA, April 18, 1883. They had six children: Mary, March 9, 1889; Willie P.,September 26, 1890; John Perry (my ggrandfather) December 6, 1892; Gertrude, August 10, 1896; Manuel Perry, October 8, 1899. All were born in Gloucester. I have been unable to get baptismal records because the church says that their records are with the Boston Archdiocese. I spent eight hours at their archives and there are no records there. They arrived before Ellis Island. I can find no naturalization papers for them in Gloucester. All birth and death records indicate only Azores. I am getting old and would like to visit the village where they came from and to finally connect with my Portugese heritage. My grandfather died in the 1918 epidemic and so any connection to the past wast lost. PLEASE - anyone - HELP. I need advice and direction.
