I've been unable to find Maria's Azores ancestry, but have her husband's parents. I'm new to Azores research and need help in finding Maria's parents, grandparents, etc. These are ancestors of my Portugese mother, also b. Taunton, Bristol, MA and whose family settled in the San Joaquin Valley of California. -- For options, such as changing to List, Digest, Abridged, or No Mail (vacation) mode, log into your Google account and visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/Azores.
