Fascinating, Susan.I bet it came as a real surprise.And here I thought I was special with my 2.97% Native American. :-)My father got 6.84% Native American (Central American) from the Pima tribe. The map shows that is Mexico.But my map shows Mexico, along with all of the other Central American countries, plus Columbia and Bolivia in South America. The tribes are Maya, Pima, Surui, Columbian.Just why my results are more specific than my father's and get closer to my known origins in Chile, makes me wonder.Doug da Rocha HolmesSacramento, CaliforniaPico & Terceira Genealogist916-550-1618www.dholmes.com

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Exorcisms? of children in Ginetes documents

2013-11-06 Thread João Ventura
Hi John,

Yes, it's not a sin. But clearly the Church does believe that the devil 
might have been involved in the first baptism, and they need to exorcise it 
better. I guess it makes that makes the first one a satanic rite instead of 
a sin.

I understand the need for a second baptism, just to make sure. And I know 
that a rite of exorcism is part of baptism anyway. But clearly something is 
fishy about the need to state the exorcism explicitly. My theory about that 
is the one above - a need to affirm the power of the Church. Granted, it's 
my personal opinion, and I don't have time to research that deeper. I just 
find it funny from the records that they exorcise only on second baptisms. 
I'm assuming that the record reflects the rite and a stronger exorcise was 
performed on those babies.

2013-11-06 Thread João Ventura
Hi José,

Yes, and no.

They still keep records in churches nowadays. The difference is that before 
1911 the only records were the church records. After that the Civil 
Registry started working, and the official certificates are the 'birth 
certificate' and not the 'baptism record'.

In order for the Civil Registry to work however, a law was passed that all 
the church records before 1911 had to be transferred to the Civil Registry. 
The priests then started new records that you may still be able to find in 
the churches or in the Archive of the local Diocese.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Dna results

Diane, I also match Susan’s brother but not Susan. We have known (paper trail) 
for years that we are direct 6th cousins yet her brother caries more DNA of the 
line that Susan does. Cheri looked into our CM’s and I DO match Susan but 
FamilyTreeDNA doesn’t show it because it is smaller than Susan’s brother!

Susan,
It is interesting because I have matched your brother, but not you on Family 
Finder.  I also came back Western European and North Africian.

  Fascinating, Susan.

  I bet it came as a real surprise.
  And here I thought I was special with my 2.97% Native American. :-)


  My father got 6.84% Native American (Central American) from the Pima tribe. 
The map shows that is Mexico.
  But my map shows Mexico, along with all of the other Central American 
countries, plus Columbia and Bolivia in South America. The tribes are Maya, 
Pima, Surui, Columbian.

  Just why my results are more specific than my father's and get closer to my 
known origins in Chile, makes me wonder.

I thought I would "join the cocktail party" because I tested both my 
brother and myself on Family Finder and we are of 100% Azorean ancestry. 

My brother came back 85.8% Western European….(French and Spanish) and 14.2 
% North African (Mozabite)

I came back as 97.58% Western European (Spanish) and 2.4% Cambodian, Han, 
Japanese, Lahu, Malay, Mongolian

As has been said…Amuzing and confusing:)

[AZORES-Genealogy] Mt. St Joseph Cemetery, Hayward, CA

2013-11-06 Thread celeste perry
Hi Teresa,
   When I searched the voter registration records, I was able to actually look 
at the binders myself.  I am not sure if that is still possible.  Be persistent 
and you may be able to look yourself.
   I have a database for the burials at Mt. St. Joseph Cemetery in Hayward.  
Here is what I found buried in the graves owned by John Davner, where your 
ancestors are buried:
 
John Davner, born 1875, died of cancer in 1889, buried 1913
John Davina, born 11/24/1913, died 11/27/113, 75 years, born Azores, last lived 
in Palomares Canyon 
Frances Aurora Davner, died 4/23/1929, 71 or 72 years old, born CN
Eugenia Costa, died 11944
Ernest Costa, died 1941
Joseph Costa, died 1939
Antonia Costa, died 1916
Stillborn Houston, buried 1920, "on top of uncle," from Richmond
 Manuel Garcia, died 4/21/1931, 78 years old
Urselsa Estrenoz, died 1895, buried 1913, born 1860, lived in Hayward

  Hope this helps you.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Exorcisms? of children in Ginetes documents

2013-11-06 Thread Terri
Thanks for all your answers. It  gave me more insight about why a child's 
document would say 'exorcism'.  I had first even thought that it could have 
been a seisure or something they saw in a child and mistook it for being 
'possessed by the devil' since they wouldn't have known much about medical 
conditions like that in that era.  But your explanations made alot of 
sense.
