I did speak with her last week, and she mentioned she had 6 people waiting for information. She said she would work on all on a first come first served basis.

Maybe i can text her and ask for a favor before she goes home from work one day. She is a very nice lady and i doubt she would have a problem with it. Keep me posted!

I know that as a church secretary, she's got to do the regular day to day parishioner stuff first. So I guess, I'll wait a bit longer. Thanks!

That's the title of this thread. At one point you said St. John's (the subject of this thread) and at another point you said St. Mary's in Rhode Island. Not too sure if you know where you are looking. So if you aren't talking about St. John the Baptist or Mount Carmel in New Bedford, Massachusetts, your query about St. Mary's in RI is going to get lost in here. You probably want to start a new posting called "St. Mary's in ____ Rhode Island" and post there. Thanks!

I will have to wait to see if I can visit St. John's and ask in person for the information. Living across the country from them makes it a little difficult.

My sources tell me that particular rectory is a bit of a mess personnel-wise so I’m not sure they’d go the extra mile to look in the files. Parishes need more encouragement like what we’re doing in the Archdiocese of Boston to get them to give us genealogists a good helping hand.

Today I received the letter I wrote to St. Mary's Church in Bristol, RI. Not a response, really, the original paper letter I wrote to them. At the top of the letter I send was written, "Just says "notice sent" Both Parties were born in Azores." Any suggestions that can give me a more accurate location of birth is appreciated. Celeste, researching "the elusive Maria Cristo."

She won't photocopy or take a picture of the book but will issue a paper certificate. I told her the certificate doesn't have a blank for the freguesia/village that the bride and groom are from. She said to state that in an email to her and she'll add it in. So now I play "wait and see." At least we have confirmation that the books are there as of January 2017.

I believe they are not easily accessible so I am hoping they will humor me and try to find them. I have them on another couple and they had even more info on them (even though it proved to be incorrect info!!??!!)
