Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] 1854 baptismal record from Flores, plus Flores/Corvo a...

[Joanne Mercier]

Thank you for correcting my mistake, David.  I meant to write Fall River but 
wrote diocese instead.  It's been a rough month. ;) 

It is a shame that St. John's had to close because I believe there should have 
been more of an effort to save it since it was the FIRST Portuguese parish in 
North America.  Since I work in the Catholic Church professionally I understand 
the WHY of these things but there were other churches that could have closed in 
lieu of this historic church.  Their records will go to Mt. Carmel but it will 
take some time before folks will be able to search for those of us looking for 
relatives.  Even I can't go to a parish and look up folks myself and a lot of 
priests know me and are familiar with my associations. They have been directed 
to be careful with the records, possibly because of identity theft and possible 
because of the LDS wanting to film their files.  I'm hoping what little I can 
share with them about our group will help them be more receptive to our needs.  

Now, if I can only come up with the money to get a DNA kit on sale... ;)

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] MEDEIROS from unknown Island

[rondo ranch]

Hi Betty,
I'm very interested in your work on the Portuguese in Lowell.  My grandfather's family lived there for a number or years.  He has family buried in Catholic Cemetery.  I plan to make a trip there in the future get more information.  Please email me outside the group at ro...@lightspeed.net

Hi Betty,

Nice to hear from you. It's been a very long time since you told me about your project to document the Portuguese of Lowell.

If you didn't already do it, you can add my great-great-grandfather, Manuel Joaquim Leal who died in Lowell after an operation in 1886. He is buried in the cemetery in New Bedford, though.

About Medeiros, Hermano is probably right. That has always been my first guess when I run across anyone named Medeiros - that they came from Sao Miguel.

However, I mentioned a lot of them in Faial and Pico.
So the way I would approach this question is first to look at the other surnames associated with Medeiros.
You mentioned Miranda and there are a lot of Miranda in Pico, in the Madalena area. But of course, we have our illustrious list member, John Miranda Raposo, whose Miranda is also from Sao Miguel, probably Bretanha.

You also mention Moura, but it doesn't seem in connection with Medeiros. I have 49 named Moura in my genealogy program, a tiny fraction, and the majority seem to be from either the continent or Madeira, with some in Sao Miguel and some in Faial, one in Pico, and a few in Terceira. So that doesn't really tell me much, but I think Sao Miguel might have a great many using the name Moura.

On the whole, I would say your friend's Medeiros is most likely Sao Miguel. And since it's also more common for people from Sao Miguel to settle in New England, that's another thing leading to this conclusion. If this Medeiros family had moved to CA, then it might also mean they were going where their families had settled and Faial or Pico are better represented in CA when looking at percentages.

I would place a heavy importance on finding them as immigrants. Philip is far less common a first name than most and that is in your favor. Try searching passengers arriving in Boston, New Bedford and maybe also NY if the first two don't work. But look for Filipe de Medeiros (or maybe Filipe Medeiros).

I believe his arrival would be before the gap in passport records out of Ponta Deldada, Sao Miguel. So if you can find his arrival, look for the corresponding departure from Ponta Delgada, Sao Miguel.

That should get you off to a decent start.

Boa sorte (good luck)!

 Original Message Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] MEDEIROS from unknown IslandFrom: "Betty" Date: Tue, April 23, 2013 2:13 pmTo: Hi Doug,For several years, as I have time, I try to help my husband's cousin with his MEDEIROS / MIRANDA family-tree. (actually his father's cousin) He is more interested in finding descendants of .. Philip and Mary (MIRANDA) MEDEIROS, who reportedly had 8 children.The 1900 US census for Cambridge, MA, has Mrs. Medeiros as a widow, and having 6 children with her. The family migrated here in 1889, and the last 3 children were born here. It seems Mr. Medeiros died between 1895-1900, as he fathered a child in 1895. In 1910, only the 2 youngest, as teens, were with her, and I can't locate the older children.One side note is that I looked on census pages early this morning, and there were 4 other MEDEIROS families, almost in the same neighborhood, and arriving around the same time, including: Joseph, b1869, Frank, b1857, Victor, b1862. Mrs. Mary (MIRANDA) MEDEIROS was b1859. The problem is that most of them just say born Portugal.I'd like to help the cousin find his ancestry. Doug just mentioned that many MEDEIROS came from Faial and Pico. But, as far as I know, the cousin does not know where his Philip MEDEIROS, b~1855?, came from.Betty (near Lowell, MA, USA)P.S.About a month ago a very helpful researcher offered me information on my husband's ancestors. He said Mrs. Filomena (da ROSA) MOURA came from Horta, Faial, but her parents came from both Faial and Pico. She and Francisco MOURA also married there, and was told their children were born there. But, Francisco was from Ponta Degada, Sao Miguel.By the way, the surviving children were: Manuel, Elzira "Elsie," Ernesto "Frank," Rosa, and Carolina. (in that order) I read that Ernesto and Anna MOURA went back to the Azores during 1950's; is it possible they died there?

Jose de Faria was born March 15, 1795 and was the son of Antonio de Faria 
aka Antonio da Estrela and his wife Maria da Porciuncyla de Faria.
 
Antonio da Estrela was the son of Andre de Faria and his wife Maria de Sao 
Jose. Antonio died on May 21, 1817 in Sao Pedro, Ponta Delgada

[AZORES-Genealogy] Ancestry World Explorer

[Leonard Silva]

I have used Ancestry U.S. Discovery for years with some success.  I wonder 
about the value of World Explorer when searching The Azores or Portugal.  
It does not appear that they have much to offer in these areas.

Any experience here, or should I save my money?

Thanks,

Len S,

I don't know what "Ancestry U.S. Discovery" is (unless it's the latest term
for an Ancestry.com membership).  But if it's affiliated with Ancestry.com,
then their World section has nothing on the Azores, Cape Verde, Madeira, or
Portugal.  The records for us of Azorean descent are coming online at the
CCA or can be ordered through a local Family History Center (FHC).

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Ancestry World Explorer

[AlRose509]

Cheri is exactly right as far as vital records. However, under the category 
 "immigration" Ancestry.com has a lot of passenger lists, passport 
applications  and index to naturalization records. I found these quite helpful 
in my 
 research.
 
Because I have ancestral lines that I am tracing in Italy, England,  
Ireland, Germany, Sweden, Canada as well as the Azores and USA, I am a world  
deluxe subscriber.

Cheri,
Thank you so much! By the way, I had an email from John Raposa a few years 
ago and my family is in his tree, he gave me lots of family info - is there 
anyone else out there in the same tree?
Thanks again,
Ellen

Ellen,

When people match with Family Finder (usually within the last 200 years
from the testee's birth) their name and email will show up in your Match
section.  John has done DNA testing, but not the Family Finder.  If he does
Family Finder and you do Family Finder and your families connect within 200
years of your births, then you may show up as matches on each other's
pages. And so will anyone else from that same tree, within certain
percentages of each generation.
