And the English translation (via Google Translate): >From a Brazilian friend. Philippe Garnier NEWS IN RECORDS PRESERVATION - unedited Please pass this information on to other groups, people, institutions via email or social networks. The file of the old files of the Metropolitan Archive of the Curia of São Paulo was digitized. This binder is an index of waivers, divorces, annulments of marriage, priestly qualifications, crimes, autocís, wills, etc. the states of São Paulo, and other states of Brazil, and especially the cities of Paranaguá and Curitiba. There are approximately 3,000 eighteenth-century dispensaries in Curitiba and Paranaguá. There are almost 20,000 chips that are now available to the public at no cost. There are also in this binder more than 12,000 records of marriage dispensations in the metropolitan region of São Paulo, ranging from 1841 to 1896. A few from 1897-1930. These waivers were discovered after FamilySearch did the microfilming in the archive in the 1980s. Jair who is the technical director of the archive organized these documents and cataloged them. We thank Jair for the great work he does in organizing and serving the public in the role of technical director, as we also thank the direction of the file in the person of Reverendíssimo Martín Segú Girona with his generosity in having allowed us to do this work. There are some tokens that are out of order as I noticed you have felony wills, etc. We suggest for the good of the community and the project that while they are viewing these images you put in another tab an email to our organization contact @ recordspreservation and let us know if images are upside down, blank, placed in the wrong place. Please place the listing location as well as the image number. Corrections if necessary will be made in the coming weeks.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Medeiros to Hawaii
I've been researching a lot about the MEDEIROS who immigrated from the Azores and Madeira, especially in 1922, where many went to Hawaii. My Family Medeiros, unfortunately some went to the United States of America and others mistakenly to the United States of Brazil, America (thus Brazil was known). Especially I searched for a Medeiros who went to Hawaii with his uncles, but his father went to Brazil and there was no way to get in touch. The small boats followed the steamships, paid a fee, if they had storms collected them on board. Then they sent women and children with some uncles and the Men were last to get their business right. It was there that the father of this Medeiros did not arrive in Hawaii. These 29-year-old boys were a US Navy Pilot in 1945, had a wife and two children, but died in defense of the California Coast right in San Francisco, which plane was damaged and landing was unfortunate. Well, your wife died in 2005, but you have kids around the age of 75 ... But believe me if you can, he has finally found his Family in Brazil, and here he is having a new life (this is from his book in the chapter "My Last Lives". They are stories of Medeiros ... Before the Azores, from the place 'Behind the Mountains' in Portugal, and even earlier, Germany and Israel at the beginning of the family tree.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Translation Assistance - Death Paschoal de Sousa Leal 25 July 1745(?)
Hello Tony, I can make out a little of it (I think), but not too much in the later part that I think is mostly about the burial. The main point I can make is the date of death is the 24th. "Digo" literally translates as "I say" but as used in this context it is "... what I meant to say was..." for the priest to correct what he wrote wrong. My wife has some ancestry from Manadas and grandparents named Amarante, but they are from the neighboring parish of Urzelina. My wife and I recently made a trip to visit there. Do you know a Maria Jose Azevedo da Silveira?

You had some contact with my brother Greg Caldeira in 2013 but he kind of dropped researching; he did find a local paper article from 1921 about the death of our grandfather Joseph Freitas Caldeira Sr's train-car accident which was quite enlightening but gave us no new names of possible sibs to give us Caldeira family info. Greg did visit Flores 3 yrs ago, met a cousin from JFC's side of the family and got some info on cousins (mostly in Brazil as it turns out) but not about any sibs who actually lived in the US and may have had kids who would be our cousins. I did unearth a trove of photos -- most looked to be from 1920-30s -- our Nana left us when she died in 1965 that points to a close relationship between JFC Sr with at least one brother (Jao or John we think), and we have a story of questionable reliability that JFC Sr may have 2 or 3 sisters he lived with in the US in the early 1900s but nothing about their married names or any offspring who'd be cousins. But we've got nothing really about Nana Sears/Soares Caldeira's real last name (or her real first name...she was variously referred to as Mary, Maria, and Mariann) and whether she did/didn't have a brother living in the US (photo with the two, but he could have been visiting from the Azores, not here in the US). Most photos had no names of who was in the pictures; my attempt at trying to trace people through the studio names on some of the portrait frames was a dead end since they were so old. So I'm trying to pick up on my Dad's parents and grandparents because we have so few clues about who they were and which if any siblings might have come to the US and would be our 2nd or 3rd cousins. My DNA points toward a large Italian/Greek and Irish connection that would have to be from my paternal grandparents or ggp generations and not really far back, something intriguing and unexpected. Beyond trying to get in touch with some of the names the DNA matches gave me, I'm lost. Greg did find the ship Joseph Freitas Caldeira Sr arrived on in early 1900s in Providence but evidently he came alone (or with a relative with a different surname). We know some first cousins (some we don't due to alienation between Dad and 2 sisters) but even they don't know any names beyond Nana and our grandfather. One first cousin is having her DNA done which may give us some help refining DNA matches to contactbut I'm finding people don't check their Ancestry.com accounts for messages very often so getting replies back is slow. I've tried to find my Nana Sears/Soares-Caldeira on ship manifest lists with variations of first and last names, but so far no luck. Because there's so much Italian/Greek DNA in my DNA profile, I'm wondering if our assumption "Mary Sears" had to be "Mary Soares" isn't a good one, but then I don't what other names or ship manifest lists to try. I'm hoping her 1965 death cert lists her parents names and maybe which island she debarked from. We're believe my Nana was never naturalized, and census data just says "Mary Caldeira" though there could be a 1910 (pre-marriage) census she appears on, but under what name and where (we think she lived in Idaho after emigrating but are unsure when she came to the SF area)? The "Joseph Freitas from Craterville:" gave me a chuckle. We'd always thought more volcano or cauldron, a little more dignified than "Craterville."
