There's a zillion Antonio Azevedos. And if I had $1 for every time someone told me their ancestor "jumped ship," we'll I'd have a nice little bundle of money.
You need to keep in mind that some stories became embellished over time. Don't hold on to it as fact. You still need to look for him coming to America on the American Passenger Arrivals and you still need to check for him leaving the Azores. It was very hard to sneak past both ends. Maybe he succeeded. But I'd still go looking for him.
