Sarah A, No, since the records are coming from a Portuguese region, they will be in Portuguese. There's a book of the Flores and Corvo marriage, but it's in Portuguese. If you don't want to learn how to "read" the records, you could hire a researcher. There's a list on the Azores GenWeb here: https://goo.gl/Xzol8B Scroll down to where it says Researcher for Hire. Good luck, Cheri
