Hi Eliseu, Please count me in as well. I saw Colleen's note and was intrigued with the mention of Bettancourt and Cunha as my Great Grandfather John Sylvia *may* have previously gone by Joao de Cunha Bettancourt (according to an uncle of mine) and was supposedly from Graciosa. I am at the Azores research conference this week in SLC and a cousin of mine (Edna) came upon some interesting hints in the church records from Graciosa that may have found his family. Edna remembers hearing of a Maria Rosa who claimed to have an uncle who may have been my John Sylvia. It's all quite the mystery but maybe it can be solved by working together.
Thanks much! Ken Waters Mesa, AZ On Thu, Apr 17, 2014 at 6:28 PM, Steve Wright <cswrigh...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Eliseu: > > I would like to be added to your Graciosa list.
