[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Azores on PBS
Ric Fobelo uploaded a couple of these interviews from this documentary to you tube. Maybe someone can call him at 401-578-5700. and ask him for more info. DARTMOUTH — Creators of a documentary about Aorean and Portuguese culture are looking for natives from those areas to tell their stories about why they moved to the United States and their experiences here. The documentary, called Ilha De Meus Sonhos, or Island of My Dreams, will be produced by Ricardo Rebelo, who teaches TV and film courses at Bristol Community College. BCC's Luso Centro, Fall River Community Television and the FLAD Foundation are combining to create the documentary, which Rebelo hopes to release by the end of the year. On Sunday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the creators will open their film studio at BCC's Jackson Arts Center (room H-101) for immigrants to talk about their experiences. These interviews will be the backbone of the documentary, they said. Immigrants interested in participating can also contact Rebelo at 401-578-5700. All interviews, even those that don't make it into the documentary, will be archived at the Luso Centro at BCC. Rebelo, a former production assistant at ABC who just finished a documentary about Lizzie Borden, wants to give future generations a chance to hear why their parents or grandparents come to the Fall River area. Many immigrants don't talk freely about the circumstances of emigrating to the U.S., he said. They don't think it's particularly remarkable, but often it is. Rebelo, himself an Azorean immigrant, is looking to focus on how Portuguese immigrants have maintained the culture of their homeland here, while the Azorean culture has changed since the revolution, he said. The documentary could also note two waves of emigration from the Azores in the 1950s and the 70s. The interviews are being held on Sunday because it is the anniversary of the revolution.

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Azores on PBS
I am not sure if this is what Iris was talking about. It looks like they have a show about Portugal and the Azores next Monday on WGBH out of Boston. It appears to be about slavery, the show is called Globe-Trekker. http://www.wgbh.org/programs/Globe-Trekker-120/episodes/Portugal--The-Azores -9461 Steven _ From: azores@googlegroups.com [mailto:azores@googlegroups.com] On Behalf Of Cheri Mello Sent: Thursday, March 03, 2011 8:58 PM To: azores@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Azores on PBS If you google the raising of the k-129 you get information from Wikipedia and You Tube.

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Azores on PBS
At this point, I don't know what I'm looking for either. I was told by someone months ago that a program about the Azore's would be on pbs in March. So I put a note about it on my calender on the March page. I'll check listings on Monday. Obrigada to all 4 of you for posting.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] New records uploaded CCA site for island of Pico
Hi, Since I am new to this, what is CCA? Also, my family is from Silveira Ribeiro do Meio, Pico, but birth and death places are listed as Lajes do Pico. What does Lajes mean and is it similar to our counties?

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] New records uploaded CCA site for island of Pico
Hi Linda, CCA is Centro de Conhecimento dos Acores (Center for Knowledge of the Azores). Their vitals are coming online. Very slowly. There is no time line posted and no rhyme and reason for how they put things up. You can find the records here, but don't use Firefox. It stops working right before you go to view the records. http://pg.azores.gov.pt/drac/cca/ig/ The Azores is divided into 3 districts each with its own archive: Ponta Delgada on Sao Miguel which houses the Sao Miguel and Santa Maria records. Angra on Terceira which houses Terceira, Graciosa, Sao Jorge, and Pico. Horta on Faial houses Faial, Flores, and Corvo. Archives have records that are generally 100 years old or older. Many of the larger islands are divided into concelhos or councils. You can think of them like American counties. Pico has 3: Madalena, Lajes do Pico, and Sao Roque. You can see many of the concelhos here: http://homepage.mac.com/kmacardoza/Genealogy/maps.html Just pick your island.
