His wife is listed as Francisca Vittoria(sp?) b. abt. 1877 Sao Miguel. I believe they married in the US and would appreciate if someone who has NEHGS could look up a marriage ca 1893.

Hi E, I found a marriage in Fall River for Manuel de Mello and Francisca Tavares Aug 12, 1894, he age 22, she age 19. His parents were Jose and Helena Mello, her's Manuel Francisca C. Frazaeo(?). They were from Sao Miguel. I also found a birth for Manuel in New Bedford 1898, but the film can not be read. I have a Jose Correa de Mello and Helena Chaves de Mello in my tree. My Helena was born 1858 in either Capelas or Santo Antonio. If they are the same, I have a lot of info on Helena's side. Haven't looked up Jose's yet. I can look up the rest of the children if you want. Let me know.

E I looked further into the Fall River marriage I sent you. I don't think that one is correct. I found a marriage on Feb 5 1894 for Manuel Duarte and Francisca Victoria, both age 20, in New Bedford. A lot of times they didn't use their last names on these records. Parents: Jose Duarte and Maria Jacintha, and Jose da Costa and Victoria de Amaral. Place of birth St. Michaels, no village. No luck with children under Duarte, but I'll keep looking.

Hi Elaine, I hope this helps. I found a Marriage for Manuel Duarte and Francisca Victoria, 3 Feb 1894, in New Bedford. They were both residents of New Bedford and were married by A. G. Neves, Priest. They were both from St. Michael, Azores. His parents names were listed as, Jose Duarte and Maria Jacintha. Her parents names were listed as, Jose da Costa and Victoria Amaral. None of the others I found were even close to this. I had no luck at all using de Mello or Mello.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Manuel Duarte DeMello - Fairhaven MA - NEHGS help
Judi and Nancy and Elly, Thank you for the lookups. Judi, looks like you have found their marriage record as their first child of record was born in 1896- in 1900 census, they had 3 children born and 2 living so it is possible a first child was born before 1896. Thank you so much. Did you find this on Ancestry? Did it happen to list where they were living? I know my own grandfather lived in NB married in Fall River. I still haven't figured out why. Does anyone else have an answer to this? Here are the rest of the children, born before 1910, (I think this is what NEHGS goes to) from census record info: George Mello b. abt. 1905 Adelina (Lola) Mello b. abt. 1908 Marie Mello b. 1909 In 1900, 1910, 1920, 1930 censuses, the family of Manuel Duarte deMello always lived in Fairhaven. In the 1900 and 1910 census, he used the surname Duarte, 1920 they started using Mello. Manuel Sr. must have died between the 1920/1930 censuses as in 1930, his wife, Francesca Mello is listed as a widow. I am surprised the sons Manuel Duarte Mello Jr. b. 7/20/1898 and Antone b. Jun 9, 1896 are not listed but I know in those days some births were not recorded or recorded 2 or 3 years later. Thank you, too, Elly. NEHGS is a New England Genealogy subscription program which lists birth, death, marriages to 1910, I believe they are in the process of updating it to 1915. Again, thank you all so much for your help on this. E --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Graciosa family - Baptismal Records from Nossa Senhora da Luz
Hello to all (especially others who have family from Graciosa), Looking for legible baptismal records from Nossa Senhora da Luz from 1612-1796. I am doing research on my family from Graciosa in both the parishes of Nossa Senhora da Luz and Nossa Senhora de Sao Mateus. The surnames I am researching are DE SOUZA NETO from Nossa Senhora da Luz and D'ATHAIDE, also spelled ATAYDE or ATAIDE from Nossa Senhora de Sao Mateus. My g.g. grandmother was Luzia NETO, born Apirl 25, 1865 in Nossa Senhora da Luz. Her parents were Jose de SOUZA NETO and Francisca Carolina D'ATHAIDE. Luzia had 2 other siblings that I know of - Manuel SOUZA NETO, born April 22, 1861 and Maria SOUZA NETO, born January 9, 1859 both from N.S. da Luz. Jose SOUZA NETO (Luzia's father) was born April 17, 1826 in N.S. da Luz. Francisca Carolina D'ATHAIDE was born November 25, 1826 in N.S. de Sao Mateus. her parents were Domingos Antonio D'ATHAIDE and Maria Candida COELHO. They were married March 1, 1813 in N.S. de Sao Mateus. Jose de SOUZA NETO's parents were Jose de SOUZA NETO and Delfina Roza THOMAZIA (IGNACIA), both from N.S. da Luz. They were married December 28, 1806 in N.S. da Luz. I have been able to find more informatoin on the ATHIADE side of the family, as the baptismal records from Nossa Senhora de Sao Mateus are more legible than Nossa Senhora da Luz. The baptismal records that I have access to at the FHC for Nossa Senhora da Luz from 1612-1796 (film # 1547221, items 9-16) are for the most part illegible and very hard to impossible to read. I think either the originals were in that bad condition or more likely what it seems like is that the records were microfilmed out of focus and therefore are unable to be read. Does anyone have access to legible baptismal records for Nossa Senhora da Luz during the timeperiod of 1612-1796? Or does anyone have baptismal record index for that parish? Also, if anyone has connections to this family, any information would be greatly appreciated. Since there aren't too many posting on Graciosa, maybe all of us researchers can compile a database of records, names and dates and family trees. Hope to hear from anyone who has any ideas.
