Afterall, São Miguel is not so big or very populated nowadays - imagine back in the 1800s...Considering Rosa Jacintha's birth she may have been Barbara's cousin or niece.

I don't think they will look without payment, name, date, and freguesia. Sometime institutions will become tired of genealogists and refuse to help any of them. Whether that is in your location, mine, or the Azores. I wouldn't be insistent, as you said, but if you did not include any money, then include it as ask if they are now able to fulfill your request. I don't know where you live or why your FHC films take a year. You need to ask the director at your FHC why it takes so long. I haven't ordered film in a while, but I think it took about 4-6 weeks for a film to come from Utah to CA, where I live.

[AZORES-Genealogy] War in 1910's? about ggrandfather Jose Rego Vital from Lagoa, S. Miguel
Hi. My great-great grandfather was José Rego Vital (1889-1956). My grandmother told me he came to America to escape a war. I was wondering if anyone had any information about this because I haven't heard anything else. He came over in 1913. Also, I cannot find immigration records for him or his wife Maria dos Anjos Costa Costello. I don't know if they used fake names to come over but I do believe his immigration was illegal. Does anyone know anything about similar cases and how I could go about finding his immigration information? I think he comes from a big family of Rego Vitals. I have found many records on ancestry.com, especially draft cards, with RV's but I can never decide whether it's one of his brothers or if it's a cousin. There were many boys but few names; Jose, Manuel, Antonio, Joao, Joaquim; I think we all know what that's like. ; ) a photograph of him: http://o.mfcreative.com/f2/file11/objects/c/9/1/bc91434a-fb88-49df-a76b-eac809012699-0.jpg Thanks for reading this. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.

I think WWI was 1914-1918 or so. How did he know there would be a World War the following year? I don't think you could use fake names to come over. Even people who tried to sneak onto the boat were caught. Two good books on migration to America are John P. Colletta's They Came In Ships and Michael Teppers's American Passenger Arrival Records. See if your local library has them.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: War in 1910's? about ggrandfather Jose Rego Vital from Lagoa, S. Miguel
I don't know much about Portuguese history, but your post made me think. My family originates from the north of Portugal in Valenca do Minho. It borders the Galicia border of Spain. My grandmother used to tell me her stories. She was born in 1900. Her father was all for the monarchy and around 1910, 1911, the monarchy ended. Her father, my g-grandfather was devastated. She remembers when she was a young teenager, she could hear the cannons and how many soldiers went off to battle. I don't know if this was about some sort of revolution that took the monarchy down or if they were battling with Spain, but the dates match with Jesse's. I also don't know how the monarchy affected the Azores, but many men were probably called to battle.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: War in 1910's? about ggrandfather Jose Rego Vital from Lagoa, S. Miguel
Hello Maria Sousa, Thank you for your post. It reminds me of what I over heard as a child. My dad (born in th USA 1917) had said that his ancestor 'family' had been well to do in the Azores. There was a some sort of political overthrow that caused the remaining family members in the Azores to be rendered financially ruined. Unfortunately, I don't know the details. Perhaps, once the political coup occured in Mainland Portugal, it spread to the Azores. At that time, wasn't the Azores still considered part of Portugal? In other words, the Azores wasn't an autonomous region at that time, was it? I apologize for my lack of Portuguese history. I am third generation American and my parents never shared family history directly with us children.
