From: Elaine Mello Sent: Friday, October 12, 2018 6:02 PM To: Azores Genealogy Subject: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Help When I started looking for my grandparents records here in Massachusetts, I found that my grandfather immigrated under one name (De Mello Barbosa) but got married under de Mello Silva (his mother's maiden name) and eventually became just Mello. Given the amount of times surnames changed going back further than that, I came to the conclusion it was a miracle I found any connections at all! Mainly, thanks to the great people where who helped point in the right direction. But you might do some searches on familysearch or ancestry with combinations of their names(even searching first names and your mother's name) and see what shows up in census and other state records.
