Repost for Miguel Deavery, migueldeavery at gmail.com I often wonder why some of our ancestors went to the Azores ?Did they go freely or were they forced ? Beautiful Islands in the middle of nowhere.I think our ancestors were courageous to leave Portugal than go to the Azores and than leave again to go throughout the world to give us opportunities they never had in their own lives.I know the Azores Islands are beautiful but it must of been isolating for those living there not to long ago. I once heard a saying but where I don't recall. The saying was ...There is Lisbon and everything else is scenery.
