Sam, I hope I am not asking too much of you. My wife’s father’s name is surname is Soares and I am struggling getting beyond his father’s birth certificate information. Her Grandfather is listed as John Alves Soares dob 11Dec1901 dod 31May1956 in Honolulu. His father (GGF) is listed as Alves Soares Arvilla – no stats., mother (GGM) is Amilia Rapoza. Is there any connection? From what I can determine someone is from Madeira and others are listed as Santa Maria. The GGF is an enigma. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My grandfather being Jose Soares Coelho from Vila do Porto, Santa Maria. Will you share with me what info. you have on Marion Wilhelmina Coelho’s ancestors? Thanks, Sam in Camas, WA Sent from Windows Mail From: jsbentz...@gmail.com Sent: Wednesday, November 19, 2014 1:59 PM To: Azores@googlegroups.com In researching my wife's maternal grandmother, cannot find out how Marion Wilhelmina Coelho arrived in USA. Census records show her immigrating in 1898, along with her parents, Francisco and Mary Coelho, and settling in Providence, RI. Passenger lists found on the Ancestry site for that time period do not include those names. Are there other sources for information about immigration from the Azores in the 1890's? Any help will be much appreciated.
