Yes now that I have the name of the wife of Manoel I can search the baptisms.  
I was surprised that the name turned out to be Tereza de Oliveira.  I thought 
it was maria de something.  But Tereza de Oliveira and Manoel de Sousa 
something Res... should be easy to find. ;)

Well, Fred, the record is the record! Until someone can come up with

Perhaps. If he was 110 yrs old at death, who, that was still living at that 
time, would know - absent a document that actually stated his date of birth. 
Did Goncalo, himself, even know when he was born? Most of our ancestors only 
had a vague idea, at best, of when they were born - they didn't live in an era 
that people needed that kind of information. We're at the point where there 
aren't many records left that can substantiate, or disprove, what you've found. 
Now the question becomes: is it the [right] Goncalo Mendes, but, I wouldn't

David F,

How about if you tell us about your Azorean ancestor?  The island and 
freguesia that they came from?  Names and dates too.

Your R1a on your YDNA isn't part of our project, as I don't believe your Y 
line qualifies you for the Azores DNA project.  And having mtDNA haplogroup 
J is fairly common.  So let's start with the research you've done on your 
Azorean ancestor and you can tell us about that to start.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Half-Orphans

2014-04-21 Thread Grace CM
This is fascinating--and disturbing. It explains a lot, though--not just 
why the mother would say she was widowed when the father lived only a block 
away, but also maybe why the children put such distance between themselves 
and the parents. It also makes me think they truly were divorced--since it 
gives the mother a reason for lying about it. Now I just have to find the 
record! Thanks, Cheri.

 That's it! It makes perfect sense. The parents separated or divorced 
 (haven't found a divorce record yet) and lived apart for ten years, all the 
 time paying $20 a month to the San Diego Children's Home. I'm more 
 confident now that the child (maybe even 3 of the 5) I found as 
 half-orphans living with other families during the time were theirs. 
 Orphans but with both parents alive. Thanks, Liliana! Great! PS What's the 
 name of the book?

 I’m fairly certain I have the answer to that. On Azores GenWeb, which is 
 a terrific source of information (Forgive me if I’m reporting something 
 most of the group already knows.), there was a book on the Azores —part 
 fiction, part non-fiction—reviewed. The fiction part is supposedly 
 well-researched, and so far everything I’ve read has checked out. Embedded 
 in the fiction of the book, there is reference to half orphans: *children 
 with both parents living who could no longer be fully supported by the 
 parents*. They lived in institutions along with children without 
 parents, and their parents paid small amounts for their room and board. 
 They kept their own names but could be farmed out to private homes--sort of 
 like foster children. I did a bit of research of my own on this, and 
 apparently it was not common at the turn of the century but it was done.

 Does anyone know what “half-orphan” in a California school record from 
 1918 might mean? Unless I’m mistaken, the child has two living parents.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Baptism Record Translation Help-Francisco

2014-04-21 Thread Diane George
I am having difficulty translating the following baptism record:
http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/FAL-HT-FETEIRA-B-1812-1
829/FAL-HT-FETEIRA-B-1812-1829_item1/P166.html for Francisco. His entry is
on the right bottom of the page. 

 

Here is what I have:

 

Francisco, son of Francisco Gonsalves, native of Feteira, and his wife Rita
Inacia, native of Apostalo de Matheus do Pico, and Frequesia of ? (several
words after are unintelligible) , paternal grandparents Manuel Gonsalves and
Agada Maria(?), maternal grandparents Antonio Correia and Josefa ? , born on
the 25th day of October?, 1822 and baptized on the 3rd day of November,
1822. Godfather Manuel Jose Correia and ? Anna Felicia, daughter of Manuel
Jose Correia. The rest makes no sense to me except that I see a few names
strung together.

 

Any help would be appreciated. 

 

Thanks.

 

Diane George

[AZORES-Genealogy] Help with Baptism Translation

I believe this is my 2x great grandfathers baptism record from Ariffes, Ponta 
Delgada, São Miguel. I've been staring at it for two days trying to decipher 
the beautiful handwriting. I'm not familiar on what is written in the baptism 
record so any help would be appreciated. 

It's the last line on the this page and it continues on the next page:

Here is what I can make out
Jose, born  at 7:00pm on 20 December 1861, son of Jose de Medeiros Correa 
(Correia), from Arrifes and Maria da Gloria, from Capelas, who were married in 
Arrifes where they live (Rua dos Afonsos); baptised on 5 January 1862 (at 
bottom of page it says that  Jose is the first of that name).
Paternal grandson of Jose de Medeiros Falcao and Teresa Francisca Eugenia and 
maternal grandson of Francisco Correa (Correia)  Querido and Maria de Jesus.
Godparents were his maternal grandparents who live at Rua do Teatro Novo, 
Capelas.
Hope that helps.

Syndi,

The translators here don't want to translate a record that you are unsure
of.  You say it's your great-grandfather, but we don't need the
relationship.  The record doesn't state that this ancestor will have a
descendant named Syndi.  It's better if you post his NAME.

You can get some pointers on picking out baptismals here:
