Oi George, Espero que tudo tenha corrido bem na sua cirurgia, e desejo que você se recupere logo. Passei também recentemente por um problema de câncer na minha família. Meu irmão operou no dia 24 do mês passado de um câncer no assoalho da boca, e passa bem graças a Deus. Agora ele vai fazer a radioterapia para evitar o retorno do câncer.

She is my great grand Mother. Family tradition says she had a deformed hand and her parents sent her over to the States for medical treatment for the hand. It is believed she took on the surname of the family she was staying with here in the States which was JOSEPH and was AKA Fannie Joseph. She married a Manuel Lewis September 14, 1868 in Boston , Mass. using the name Frances Joseph and listed her father as Antonio Joseph. Manuel was born c: July 10, 1834 in Cedros, Santa Cruz , Flores , Azores . He was a mariner on whaling ships and when married was a fisherman out of Provincetown Mass. Six children have been recorded being born to the couple, the first son in Martha’s Vineyard , Mass. the remainder in Provincetown . The second child, first daughter, Mary Catherine b: Aug, 1869 listed on her marriage license her father as Manuel Lewis, as would be expected but for her mother was listed the single name MACHADO ! Could this be Frances birth family name? Joao Ventura, a genealogist on this list, searched the Flores records for this Joseph family line with out success before I just discovered the MACHADO reference, so perhaps some one on this list who has researched the MACHADO line may be able to shed some light on this brick wall.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: caton or caetano to ashland area, bay area from Flores, then Mass., Also Garcia, Alvernaz or Harvey.
My earliest Azorean immigrant of Caton/Caetano name was Capt. Manuel (Emanuel) R. Caton to Provincetown, MA., B: 28 May 1862, Santa Maria Isl., Died/Lost at Sea with his whole crew @ Dec/Jan 1918 off Florida coast. He married Ida Silva/Silver, a daughter of Captain Joseph Silva and Rosa Bernardo Silva. He was known as the Strong man of Provincetown for supposedly dragging a 400+ pound piece of iron from a P-town shore to his home. They had 8 children born and at least 4 died before age 5. Those who made it to adulthood were: William, Frank Fish, Emma F. and maybe Rosa (unproven). There were at least 2 other Caton men who made their homes in P-town around the same time. John, the gardener, is said to have worked for the artist Charles Webster Hawthorne's property, and the records the artist kept still exist. His granddaughter have them - mentioning John Caton as sitting for her grandfather as a general model, probably mostly when weather would not allow John to do his garden chores. The other man was also named Manuel, and I think this is the one who is your direct. I am very interested in learning more about these three Caton men of P-town, as I suspect they were related somehow. An interesting sidenote: Your Alverez sounds a bit like my 3x's great grandmother's name of Alves, but I suppose they are entirely different names - like Johnson and Johnston? Some Caton's are still in the Cape Cod area, and my research with them is going slowly. I live in Arizona.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Machado Avila from Sao Jorge to California
Repost for Patricia P, patricia.phillips1 at earthlink.net I am relatively new to discussion groups through Google. My Great-Grandfather was Joseph Machado Avila, and I have his birth location as Sao Jorge, Azores. I understand he went by the Machado last name when he decided to locate permanently to the United States. My Mother’s cousin advised me he changed his name to Avila after establishing himself in business with a gentleman who must have carried the Machado last name. Initially, the family went by the spelling “Avilla”. His mother’s name as I understand it was Francisca de Avila. My Great Grandfather’s death certificate lists the name of his father as Joseph M. Avila, and his mother’s maiden name is noted as Anna Francis. For a long time, I understood his name to be Joseph Machado. My Great Aunt Ann Avila completed the death certificate record. He was born December 25, 1850. He died March 9, 1924 in Newman, California. He had thirteen children: Nine boys and four girls. One boy passed away in infancy, William. The last son was named William Joseph, but the other seven boys carried the middle name Machado; Daniel, Anthony, Joseph, Manuel, Frank, John, and George.
