Re: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Maria de Jesus Gerevas born 1843 the Acores

Cheri,

Erastus Bartlett was the person he went to work for when he came to the US.  
Jose(ph) nameshim as his "adopted" father but I have a feeling he never  
adopted him but he took his surname for US records (you know the Portuguese  
naming thing). He is listed in 1870 living with Erastus and family as a  
farm worker under the name Jose Alvis. I lucked out finding one of his  
children's birth records that showed he came from Faial/Fayal; otherwise I  
don't think there are any other records showing where in the Azores he came  
from. I also think his real name was Jose Alves. Any Alves from Faial? He  
came to this country about 1865/70 as far as I can tell. I checked ship  
manifests but no luck, maybe NEPS site will have something? The family also  
believes he might have been born Jose Gerevas but the only Jose Gerevas I  
have been able to find in the one in CA and it is not the same person.

Frank,

Well, with Faial (old spelling Fayal) you could try the NEPS database.  I
don't think all freguesias (villages) of Faial are represented, but all you
have to do is check the births for a Jose born to a Erastus Gervais.
Erastus is more of a unique name.

NEPS (Nucleo de Estudos de Populacao e Sociedade):
http://www.neps.ics.uminho.pt/index.html

Click on the first link under Faial on the left (Praia de Almox..)
Click on the arrow (it's curved) at the bottom.
Click on the British flag (7th one) to make it go to English.

Others who use the database will be able to give you tips and tricks to make
the names come up (more relevant matches).

2010-03-29 Thread "E" Sharp
Frank,

I had a friend of mine look up your records and here is what we found
so it look like your Joseph was born on the island of Faial, Azores.
Now what his real surname is, remains to be seen.

Marriage:

Joseph A. Bartlett m. Sarah Black  Boston - April 10, 1878
 On marriage,  it has him b. Deering NH, but on birth of Harvey it has
Fayal W.I.   Her middle init. is E.  She was b. Charlestown.  She was
24 and he 26. He was a provision dealer.  Parents Erastus H and Sarah
G.  Her parents Peter and Susan marriage performed by Rev Alfred A
Wright Boston.


Births:

Harvey Francis Bartlett Boston  -   b. Feb. 2, 1879
They lived at 2 Russell Pl. Harvey b. 2 Feb. Father is a salesman.



Susie Lilian Bartlett   Boston  Sept. 25, 1880
Parents names same - rest of page too faint to read.

According to the 1900 census they had 3 children born and 2 living, do
you happen to know the name of the child that died between 1880/1900
censuses?

Still looking for the right Joseph Bartlett on death records, I guess
wrong on the first one.

This is very interesting. I just gave Eloise the Cabrinha line. They
are from Ponta Garca and emigrated to Hawaii. Having said that, there
may be other Cabrinha's from other villages. It is really a nickname
that stuck and became a surname. They were Medeiros Cabrinhas that
originated in Lagoa, Rosario and married into Ponta Garca family. You
should be able to find the Cabrinha's on the passport list and on
Island Routes.com. If it is the Ponta Garca branch, then it is simple
a matter of linking up.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Some southern CA and central CA festas

2010-03-29 Thread Cheri Mello
Someone asked me why don't I post the festas that I'm involved in with the
Artesia D.E. S. band (so is John Vasconcelos).  So this year, I'll post the
list.  I don't yet have the times, but if you plan on attending one of
these, just email me the week before and I'll probably have the times.

Sun, May 2 - Santo Cristo in Chino, CA
Sun, May 9 - Fatima in Artesia, CA (this is Mother's Day)
Sun, May 16 - Fatima in Chino, CA
Sat & Sun, May 22-23 - Espirito Santo in San Diego, CA (this is the 100th
anniversary, so it's a big deal)

Sat & Sun, Jun 12-13 - Sao Joao in Artesia, CA
Sun, Jun 27 - Espirito Santo in Paramount, CA (I'll probably miss that one,
as I'll be on plane coming back from Salt Lake)

Fri through Mon, July 23-26 - Espirito Santo in Artesia, CA

Sun, Aug 8 - Filarmonica in Tulare, CA
Sun, Aug 29 - Espirito Santo in Chino, CA

Sat & Sun, Sep 18 - 19 - Santo Antonio in Artesia, CA

Sun, Oct 10 - Filarmonica in Chino, CA

Sat, Nov 13 - Festival of the Bands - San Diego, CA

Most of these festas have other events associated with them.  The above is
the band obligation.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Posting to this list

2010-03-29 Thread Cheri Mello
Since we've had a many more new members now, I thought this would be a good
time to review how to make a post to this list.

1) Open up or compose a new email.  Address it to:
Azores@googlegroups.com(or store that in your address book).
2) Subject:  With about 750 people on this list, the subject line needs to
be a little descriptive.  During periods of high activity, many members
cannot read every message. They scan the subject line for those that match
their research needs.  Therefore, your message may not be reaching all 750
people if the subject line isn't descriptive.  I suggest a subject line with
the surname and location if known.  Pimentel from Horta, Faial or Pimentel
from Horta, Faial 1800s is good too.  "Help Me," "I'm lost," "I'm new"
probably won't get many responses.
3) Post the name, dates (birth, marriage, death, immigration) for your
ancestor.  Whatever you know in the body of the email.
4) Sign your name and hit send :)

What Not to Do:
If the subject line is "Pimentel from Horta, Faial" and the author of the
message says he married a gal with the surname of Mello, and that reminds
you of your Mello line from Sao Miguel, DON'T hit reply to tell the list
about it.  The title of the thread (all the messages in that subject are
linked together in a "thread") is still Horta, Faial, so Sao Miguel
researchers who scan subject headings will miss your message.  Start a new
message.

Also, don't edit the subject line from "Pimentel from Horta Faial" to "Mello
on Sao Miguel."  It only partially works (depending on which mail mode you
are in).  Because the messages are linked or threaded together, editing a
subject line doesn't change the threading.  People who read via the Web
board or archives or people who are searching the archives may be searching
for Mello on Sao Miguel, but why would they click on the link titled
Pimentel from Horta Faial to find info on Sao Miguel (that's the way
threading works, even though the subject has been edited).  Just start a new
message.

This is to help everyone maximize the possibility of getting responses back
to their original query.

Happy Hunting and Posting!

You are correct Cheri. 



The APGHS (American-Portuguese Genealogical and Historical Society) materials 
are indeed housed at the Ferreira-Mendes Portuguese American Archives. 



These materials include the vast indexing system of known Portuguese immigrants 
to the United States that the APGHS put together, and their book collection.  
The materials are open for on-site public consultation without 
special arrangements.   



I will also add that we have the multi-volume genealogies for Ilha Terceira and 
Faial, Pico, Flores, Corvo that were published by the goverment of the Açores 
in the last couple of years.  These too are open for on-site public 
consultation without special arrangements .  I verified with the Direcção de 
Comunidades a couple of weeks ago: no other island genealogies have been 
published (in this format) , however, they do expect follow-up publications in 
the near future. 



If anybody has follow-up questions, feel free to contact me off-the-list.

I think Dr. Gloria Correia Sa at UMass Dartmouth said that they now have the 
APGHS' collection of books and other materials.  Judy F. and Sonia P. from 
UMass are on this list, so hopefully one of them will confirm on Monday.
