Hello Looking for connections to family in the Azores. Very new to this shared email. All 4 of my grandparents come from different Islands in the Azores. Surnames: Morte, Silva, Leal (Lial), Perry, Carvalho, Cunha are some. There was a Irene Lorraine Mello who married my great Uncle Frank Morte, which appears they married before coming to California. Trying to track the Morte name. I did find some documents in Portuguese showing them on Madeira my grandfather Peter Morte baptism. I would like find a location of that. As i will be visiting the Azores in June 2019. Any help appreciated Sent from my iPhone
