[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Resendes/Rezendes in Nordeste, Sao Miguel
I have an extensive Family Tree from Faial da Terra on the Rezendes/Resendes. If you find a link to that family there let me know and I can see if I have any matches with info.

It was something I extracted at the time when I was helping someone. But if you have any further requests, please post them. I may have some from periods further back in time. Nordestinho, Achada, Achadinha, Faial da Terra, Agua Retorta, and Povoacao, are the places where you will find an abundance of people named Resendes. Interestingly, despite the many interrelations with people named Resendes, the name is not as common in Nordeste until the late 1800's or so. There is one well known (Pimentel) Resendes family in Nordeste and they are well-to-do. But this is way back in the 1600's.

Hi Mary, I, too, am related to Miguel Pereira de Lemos and Barbara Maria (my 6G grandparents). I am related through their daughter Izabel Joaquina de Lemos (b. 1773), who married Silvestre Machado Teixeira. I don't have any information on the births, marriage or deaths of Miguel Sr. and Barbara Maria. I also don't have any information on their parents. Do you have any of this info?

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: PEREIRA FROM SAO JORGE
Hi This is all very exciting. I too have Pereira family from Sao Jorge -Urzelina. My GGrandfather was Joaquim Machado Pereira (b 1850) - I have a great photo of him as a youngish man. His father was Christiano Machado Pereira (born in Rosais 1826 - died Urzelina 1881). Christiano's wives were two sisters from Urzelina - Vitorina Rosa and Perpetua Rosa. Their mother was Vitorina de Jesus and her husband from Urzelina: Manuel de Sousa Machado. Christiano's parents were Felix Jose da Silveira and Maria Joaquina de Jesus from Rosais. Two or three previous generations were from Rosais. I also note that that my 5x GGrandfather's name appears to be Matheus Pereira de Almeida and he came from Rosais and was married in 1777. In regard to the change of name mentioned by Ginger, name changes are sometimes dramatic. Joaquim Machado Pereira changed his name to Anthony Mitchell when he came to Australia in 1870. We only ever found his original name because his step-mother had written him letters in 1881 (or had them written) from Urzelina and I still have them. On his marriage certificate in 1884 (Sydney) he names his parents as Christian Mitchell and Victoria Rosa - so at least they were on the right track. Just goes to show how tricky this business of genealogy can be. The Azorean branch of my family tree is known as the Mitchells by all the cousins etc... Does anybody have any of these folk on their tree? Diane On Thursday, 26 March 2009 03:29:09 UTC+10:30, azores wrote: Hi MAREK DELACROIX, I also have Pereira's from Sao Jorge.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Help please with Marriage record.
Thanks for that Hermano. It is a great help. As those paticular records start at 1777 and they are the first entry it would be safe to assume that it was 1777. Pity about the state of the page.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Passports from Sao Jorge
Hi Cheri Thank you for all that information. I have read how the American whaling industry gave young Azorean men the opportunity of joining a boat and leaving the islands, thus avoiding mandatory military service at that time. (circa 1870). As I cannot find any record of his arrival in Australia I think he was not official. Is it possible therefore that he would not appear on any ship's list for leaving or arriving? I will keep looking at those links you sent. Another clue (maybe) is that he wore a gold earring (I have a photo of him and this is true) and my family said that this meant that he was working as a sailor and had gone around the Cape. Do you know anything about that?
