I know that she was born in São Miguel in 1870 but I think she became was naturalized around 1897 well at least her husband was. She seems to travel back to São Miguel after her mother dies in 1904. My hope was that I could find where she was from in the Passport records because my vavô who is nearly 90 can't remember where on São Miguel his family is from. Another question. Are the passport records just for outgoing people or did they record incoming people as well. Again thank you for the help. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Azores Genealogy" group.
