Eric, I believe that Oakland FHC has all of the film for the Azores. This was according to Eloise Cadinha who used to research there and ordered them. Someone who lives in Oakland and researches there could probably tell you for sure. I don’t know what if any they have for Madeira but the Madeirian records are online at their Archive site. Cheri has their addy handy but I think if you type in Arquivo da Madeira records it will come up.

It's always amazing how the group can do more than the single person. I appreciate it. Sorry for the late response, I really only have time on the weekends to work on Ancestry stuff where I can actually sit down and put a little mind power to it. Gail M: The 1900 Census in Hilo, Hawaii, it says that her husband was Naturalized. In the 1910 and 1920 Census both say that he is an Alien. He was killed by a train in Oakland on June 10, 1927 (exactly 45 years to the day before I was born.) In 1930 and 1940 she is again Naturalized. Ed: Thank you for all of the resources. I am going to be busy for a couple of weeks/years. Gail E.: In 1900 they were in Hilo, Hawaii. I know that my great grandfather was born there in 1897. I don't have much more information there. Cheri: Unfortunately, she doesn't remember much anymore. Especially about her grandparents generation. She has no memory of her grandfather's because they were both killed by trains (one when she was three days old and the other mentioned above when she was 3 years old.) And yes, I will order the test today. I had been concentrating on how I was going to get her brother to take the test. He'll be 94 in January and failed to think about my grandmother (probably because of the Y DNA thing.) Just curious, how common were the immigrants from Madeira? My Gomes Side is from Madeira Island and they arrived in 1906. Shirley: I don't have the tree traced back further than this generation on this branch. So, presently I am unaware of any other siblings. Pam: Thank you. Family History Library Question: Does anyone know if there is a way to see what films are at each FHL??? I go to the Oakland Library a lot. And I don't want to order the film if they already have it. =) Thanks again, Eric Gomes Castro Valley, CA On Mon, Dec 9, 2013 at 12:53 PM, Pam Santos <pamsanto...@gmail.com> wrote: Here is possibly their marriage? https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/FW8N-F9N On Mon, Dec 9, 2013 at 9:42 AM, Shirley Allegre <shir...@digitalpath.net> wrote: Hi Eric: I just tried to find your Manuel Rodrigues in Bob de Mello's book, but it doesn't start until 1879.

They are Manuel Rodrigues and Isabel Marie ???. They are my grandmother's paternal grandparents. From what I can gather, both were born in the Azores (not sure where yet.) However, there was an age gap of 14 to 16 years between them. He was born in 1854 and she was born in 1870 - 1872. According to the 1920 census, he immigrated to Hawaii in 1874 and she in 1890. Unfortunately, the census takers made an error here because according to the 1900 Census when they were living in Hawaii, their oldest son was born in Hawaii in 1886. My great-grandfather, Joaquin Rodrigues was born on the Big Island on December 1, 1897. I do not know her maiden name and my grandmother cannot remember it. She is now 87 years old. I have also tried to locate both of them on the passenger lists on LUSAWEB.com without success. I presume they were married in Hawaii. I am wondering if there is a resource for church records on the islands? In some of the census's, it says that she was Naturalized. I am going to check to see if she is in the databases at the local court house the next time I am over there. Just wanted to bounce this off the group and see if anyone else has any ideas. The family moved to California by the 1910 Census. Any thoughts will help.
