Paul M, You're going to need more on the dates. You need the island and freguesia (village).
You'll need to do more research in the U.S. before you are ready to begin searching over there. Francisco and Francisca are very common. Here's a how-to from the Azores GenWeb. Try some of this and keep us posted. https://goo.gl/dGG4Ar Cheri Mello Listowner, Azores-Gen Researching: São Miguel island: Vila Franca, Ponta Garca, Ribeira Quente, Ribeira das Tainhas, Achada -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Azores Genealogy" group.
