[AZORES-Genealogy] ROCHA, East Boston, MA

2009-10-10 Thread IsabelleR

I am seeking any information or leads about:

Jose P. da Rocha (he adopted the name Joseph P. Rogers, born June
1854, Terceira, Azores)

His wife's name was Mauricia Severina Zepheima (aka Mary Rogers) (b.
March 1858, Azores)

They lived in East Boston, Massachusetts.

Their children:

Joseph P. Rogers (1875 -?)
Mary O (1884 - 1924 )
Isabel [Emery Freethy] (1891-1964) Isabel was my great grandmother.

If anyone has any information or leads about any members of the Rocha
family living in East Boston, I would love to hear from you.

Another puzzling thing was the amount of time they spent on Spectacle
Island.  They had friends who owned a house there.  it surprised me
because in my lifetime Spectacle Island has been used as a dump.

Lex, 

I have the marriage book for Flores, Casais Das Flores E do Corvo).? When Eric 
posted the baptism record for you grandmother Filomena, I checked for the 
marriages of her parents Antonio Jose Goncalves and Maria do Rosario Vieira.? 
They were married in Nossa Senhora da Rosario, Lages on May 23, 1891.? He was 
53 years old and the son of Jose Caetano Goncalves and Ana Coelho. (It looks 
like Conceicao on Filomena bap. record) . Maria do Rosario Vieira was 33 years 
old and the dg. of Francisco Christiano Goncalves and Florinda da Trindade 
Vieira.



I could not find a marriage record for Jose Caetano Goncalves and Ana Coelho.



Francisco Cristiano Goncalves son of Jose Caetano Lourenco (Bispo)?and Catarina 
de Sao Jose were married on Aug. 30, 1856 to Florinda da Trindade dg. of Joao 
Antonio Vieira and Ana Florinda da Trindade. P.38



I found?a record for a Joao Antonio?Vieira and Ana da Trindade? married on Nov. 
17, 1826 but because of the name of Ana not having Florinda, I wasn't sure if 
this was the right couple.? There were no other record with the name Ana 
Florinda. If you want the information let me know.



Jose Caetano Lourenco Bispo son of Manoel Lourenco Bispo and Ana Lourenco was 
married March 31, 1805 to Catarina de Sao Jose dg. of Antonio Francisco 
Goncalves and Ana de Sao Jose. P. 59



Manoel Lourenco Bispo son of Antonio Rodrigues Bispo and Catarina Lourenco (d), 
widow of 1st wife Barbara Furtado and 2nd wife Rosa Maria married on June 6, 
1780 to Ana Lourenco dg. of Jose de Fraga and Joana Lourenco. p 84



Antonio Francisco Goncalves son of Joao Pimentel Ferreira and Isabel Furtado 
married on April 15, 1790 to Ana de Sao Jose dg. of Antonio Pimentel Gomes and 
Maria de Sao Jose p.17



All the above marriages are from Nossa Senhor da Rosario, Lages

Helen

Hi everyone,
i was wondering if someone could recommend a few books on Genealogy
from Flores Island.  I was born there but grew up in canada. my

access to many records. My fathers family is from the Mosteiro area
and my mothers family from Lages das Flores and Fazenda das Flores. i
can only go back three generations and some of that is missing. i want
to start with the strongest line i have and that's my mothers maternal
side. If anyone has any conecting info or leads or book titles and
authors would be greatly appreciated. So here's the information.

My Grandmother:
Cecilia Vieira Mendonca
B: July 29, 1937, Fazenda das Lages
D: October 23, 1987, Lages das Flores

Parents:
Father
Francisco Jose de Mendonca
B: January 17, 1886, Fazenda das Lages
D: July 14, 1970, Fazenda das Lages
Mother
Filomena Vieira Goncalves
B: May 15, 1897, Fazenda das Lages
D: February 1965, Fazenda das Lages
