I have been working with the freguesia of Ribeirinha for more years than I would like to admit. It started as a project to sort out all the Furtado’s and see how they were related. Still working on it today and see no end in presently in site. In the process I can help with most families in Ribeirinha from 1836 to 1896. Just have 10 years more of marriages to do but lots of Baptisms and Obitos. Many families in Ribeirinha came from Ribeira Grande (NS Estrela) So some of my work goes there prior to 1836.

Her specialty is Portuguese Hawaiian research, but she writes on other topics as well. Today, she wrote about how she started off researching only one line in the freguesia (village) of Maia and how it turned into researching most of Maia.
