There are quite a few Martins Gouveia in Rabo de Peixe. To link up with any specific line you need more specific information.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Maria Isabel Rodrigues
John M, I cannot duplicate any of the searches that you have listed. Are you a descendant of the child, Mary Agnes Silva, born 1868, or a descendant of Joseph Silva, born 1869? Did you DNA test yet? The Azores project is now large enough to give you at least an island group if not the island. I'd need to know what you have on your whole tree though.

New to this sight. It's fantastic. Great grandfather Jose Mello aka Jose Jose Chadinha born about 1867 married Helena Ricarda and immigrated to US around turn o 19th to 20th century. His parents were Manuel Mello and Maria Carlotta. Anyone familiar with names? I'm flying blind!

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Sao Miguel Sao Braz
You need to do U.S. research to narrow down the freguesia (or council) on Sao Miguel. They have almost 70 churches. Looking for a Jose is like looking for a needle in a haystack. I don't know why you are saying Jose Mello went by Jose Achadinha. That's a place on Sao Miguel, although I have seen it listed as a surname. Here's a how-to on getting started: https://goo.gl/dGG4Ar Good luck, Cheri Mello Cheri Mello Listowner, Azores-Gen Researching: São Miguel island: Vila Franca, Ponta Garca, Ribeira Quente, Ribeira das Tainhas, Achada On Fri, Mar 23, 2018 at 9:59 AM, jfmello via Azores Genealogy < azores@googlegroups.com> wrote: > New to this sight.

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Maria Isabel Rodrigues
Just some quick thoughts. The name Joseph Silva Dyce – I believe Dyce is a phonetic spelling of Dias so in Portuguese records it would be Jose da Silva Dias. Where did this Joseph Nichols come from? Did Jose da Silva Dias die and Maria Isabel remarry? You kind of indicate this but you have no death date for Jose da Silva Dias or a marriage record with Jose Nichols. Have you done any DNA testing to see if you can get any matches with an indication of which island and general location your ancestors may be from?

I know there is 1 or 2 Mello families in the records. Contact me if you need help, I can keep a eye out for you family while I look for mine.
