Cheri, Thanks for the response. I was unable to open the page, but I did find a link thru the Angra Herosima page. The email for Ponta Delgada archives is bpar.pdelgada.i...@azores.gov.pt. At least that is the link that came up. I hope it works.

I just noticed this for Terceira today: Marriages: Santa Barbara: Some early ones, beginning 1560 Cinco Ribeiras: Later ones, beginning 1879 Sao Bartolomeu: Some early ones, beginning 1606 It LOOKS like Corvo, Flores, and Sao Jorge islands are complete, but I don't research there, so I'm not 100% certain. The CCA site can be found here (it's a good one to bookmark): http://pg.azores.gov.pt/drac/cca/ig/ Use Internet Explorer or Safari (the other browsers don't work).

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: CCA Update: Terceira Marriages
Cheri The indexes for the Terceira marriages have been up for a few weeks. Sao Jorge is not quite finished, still have the city of Velas and then I think it's done! Hopefully Terceira will be next.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: CCA Update: Terceira Marriages
I saw no indices today though, but the marriages for 3 villages listed. I don't check regularly (since my island is not up yet), but I did notice it was different than last time I looked. But you guys who look all the time know more than I do.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Ancestry
I am new to the group. I have researching my ancestry for about 6 weeks now and found out alot of information. However, on the Portuguese side of my family tree, I am at a standstill. What I know, My grandfather's name was Frank Manuel Rose Marshall born 7-25-1877 in the Azores. He died February 27, 1962 in San Jose, California. He imigrated to the US in 1900. He married Mary Frietas, born 3-25-1883 in the Azores. Mary had 10 children, 8 living children that were born in the US. They lived in New Bedford, Mass. from 1900-1910 and moved to Irvington, California, Alameda County. I beleive they were married before they came to the US, since Mary's name was Marshall on the Census of 1900. I did find a Naturalization Paper for Frank Joseph Marshall issued on 11-24-1898 in Fayal. He was accompanied by his son Manuel Marshall. The paper said that Frank was born in Pico 1-6-1843. He sailed on the St. George from Fayal 3-1880 and resided in Alameda County until 1887. The paper was signed Francisco Jose Marshall (prehaps) Machado. This could be my great grandfather. Can anyone in the group help me confirm the island my grandfather and grandmother came from? Also, can anyone confirm if Francisco Jose Marshall was Manuel's, father? In addition, who were my grandmothers parents? Lorraine Thomas --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Ancestry
Lorraine, Six weeks isn't very long. You may want to bookmark this site from the Azores Genweb on how to research your Portuguese genealogy: http://homepage.mac.com/kmacardoza/Genealogy/HowTo.html Frank Manuel Rose Marshall may be Francisco Manuel da Rosa Machado. You will need to find his village in order to research further. Knowing only the Azores would be like someone from Europe contacting someone in North America stating that they know only that their ancestor is from America or Canada. Mary Frietas may be Maria Freitas over there. Again, you'll need her village in order to research further. Mary's name may be Marshall on the census because that is just what she used. Portuguese naming traditions are initially confusing. You need to acertain if all children were born in America or if some were born in the Azores. You think that Frank Joseph Marshall (Francisco Jose Machado) is the father to one your grandparents above? He couldn't have naturalized in Faial, as there are no American courts there to naturalize citizens. Why do you think he's related? You'll probably have to go about about 200 years to connect to other researchers. However, many people have some pretty extensive databases, so once you do some of the things listed on the Azores Genweb, post your new findings. The most important thing is to find your village (freguesia). -- Cheri Mello Listowner, Azores-Gen Researching: Vila Franca, Ponta Garca, Ribeira Quente, Ribeira das Tainhas, Achada --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.
