Hi! The Morrisson were spread (at least) in Ponta Delgada, Terceira and Faial.
Muito Obrigado, Eliseu Pacheco da Silva Azores (S. Miguel, Graciosa, Faial); Mainland (Alentejo) (http://gw.geneanet.org/eliseumanuel?lang=en) De: azores@googlegroups.com [mailto:azores@googlegroups.com] Em nome de linda Enviada: 2 de novembro de 2015 05:25 Para: Azores Genealogy <azores@googlegroups.com> Assunto: [AZORES-Genealogy] Morisson name in Azores, late 18th/early 19th c. hi all, Can anyone provide information on this name/family? Luis Antonio da Costa Morisson signed as a witness to the marriage of one of my 4xGGP's on Terceira in 1813, and I'm very curious as to what the connection could possibly have been. I know there were English and American merchants and their families in the islands during this period, but the references I've checked (Familias Faialenses and the book by Francis M. Rogers) don't include the name. If anyone can suggest other potential leads, I'd appreciate it too. Here is the record, in case any one is curious to see it: http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/TER-AH-SANTABARBARA-C-1813-1828/TER-AH-SANTABARBARA-C-1813-1828_item1/P4.html right side (Antonio Machado Fagundes and Victoria Angelica) The marriage took place in Santa Barbara, where much of my family was situated. All three of the witnesses were from Angra and do not appear to be relatives-- all unusual for the time and place in what I've seen in the other marriage records for my family there. thanks in advance for any help with this little mystery, Linda -- 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.
