Hi Azores researchers, My mother’s father was about 50% Portuguese and his father came from Sao Miguel, Azores. I posted before he was Joao Moreira who changed his name to John Morin born 1868. He lived in RI and Massachusetts while married to Josephine Levitre. He is related to a Joao Bento Moreira born about 1900.(pure guess) My closest and only second cousin match is Joao Bento and is definitely his ggrandfather. So this is where I am searching now after getting nowhere. He also lived in Montreal, Canada and was married to Maria Da Paixo Martins. He had these children Olimpio Moreira b 1934 d in Ponta Delgado 2007,and Josephina Moreira Mederios born 1929, Gennoveva Maiato, Silvina de Jesus martins Silva all from the matches tree. There may have been different mothers. The match reports Joao Bento Moreira was from Sao Miguel Arcanjo, Azores. Thanks for taking a look at my long shot. The rest of my matches are fourth cousins and this match is not willing to put us in touch with other family for testing at this time.
