Hello Cherri and Mara, I have basically every record you can have from the US except for the immigration records. All census records, marriage records, WW1 draft records, birth records of children, Family pictures, US Directories, Names/Dates etc...They all say São Miguel(St.Michael) Some census say Western Islands but I know that is a stand in for the Azores. The island of origin wasn't a mystery though, as I know I'm of Michalense descent but my grandfather who is almost 88 couldn't remember the Conselho or Freguesia his family is from. Finally I found a naturalization record that says Ponta Delgada, St Michael, Western Islands(Azores). So now I am looking through the records from the Azores(Ican speak, read, and write in Portuguese relatively well) to find baptism and parental marriage records. I'm visiting São Miguel in a few months for the second time and really want to find the exact place so I can visit. Thank you for your responses they help a lot. I'm guess I'm just glad it isn't Ponta Delgada the municipality as that covers almost have the island or am I misreading and that is what you mean?
