Hi Steve,

Sorry, I misread then. In the Portuguese based records, you are looking for
parents named João de Souza and Maria da Silva, but I doubt she's listed
that way. She'll be a Maria Religious Middle Name.

Orsiana (sp?) is Eugenia? OK, I really don't understand Australian accents.
So was it something you had in your database? How did you figure it out?

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Souza/Sousa Genealogy Help

2020-01-03 Thread Cheri Mello
Hi Steve,

Thanks for the timeline. That helps a lot. These are all records you've
done from online searches? Not everything is online, especially the
naturalizations. Currently, it's around $65 to do a search (and no
guarantee they'll find the right Manuel). The fees are slated to go to a
few HUNDRED for just a search. $300 or so.

Even though your Manuel did not personally provide the information for the
obituary, I'd use that. The person telling his life story probably got the
island right. But to search for Manuel de Souzas leaving Terceira between
1885-1887 will turn up a lot. You said his parents were Joao Souza and
Maria Reis. It will be tedious, but you can go page by page, looking for a
Manuel de Souza born to a Joao de Souza and Maria Reis:
http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/PASSAPORTES-TER-1884-1890/PASSAPORTES-TER-1884-1890_item1/index.html

However, for that time period, I don't think his mom will be listed as
Maria Reis. She'll be Maria Religious Name. She was probably a daughter of
a Reis and that information is not listed in the passaportes.

Do you have Manuel's siblings' information? That might turn up clues.
Because he's a Manuel de Souza though, DNA is probably going to be your
best bet.

Hello Rob,
I have sent you some information privately and I can now confirm that I have 
your information and that Anthony Thomas is first cousins of Joao do Couto.  
Their mothers are sisters whose 2nd names is Eugenia.  Maria Eugenia and 
Claudina Eugenia.

Hi 

I also discovered that the witness Elizabeth,(Ink is a bit blotchy) of the 
first marriage is the bride of the second.

Bit hard to read but definitely the same signature.

So,there is a definite relationship here, or very good friends,one or the other.

I searched for information on the Osiana or Asiana surname and learned that the 
name is popular in the Philippines but is also known in Mexico and Uraguay and 
I’m sure other places as well. 

Rob, I’m a Couto and I have a very distant Ancestry DNA match with someone 
named Whaite—not you, though, and I think my match is from California. I’m 
interested in how your search plays out. Good luck!

To avoid tunnel vision, I'd treat them as 2 distinct, unrelated men.

Hi Rob,

I see that the first two marriages on the page are what you are referring to.   
The dates are a day apart, so I suspect after marrying in the church, they went

likely cousins.  Both mothers are reported to use Osiana... their first names 
are Mary and Claudina.   One spelling looked like Asiana.    I also didn’t find 
a Portuguese surname that was similar.   

Does anyone have name ideas?   I suspect the grooms are doing the best they

Both their mothers have the same maiden name Osiama or similar so maybe the two

In any case have you, or anybody else for that matter ever heard of this

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Portuguese names.

2020-01-03 Thread Cheri Mello
HI Rob,

Yes, I know Australia's language is English. It's the your accent that I
don't have much familiarity with. I have enough experience with the
Portuguese accent to figure it out, especially in various regions of
America (because I live in America). But the Portuguese accent with yours
is what I am unsure of. Osiama or whatever is not a Portuguese name. The
name is corrupted. It may be Ignacia or one of the other names. Either way,
I think it's just a 2nd name and not a surname so they may not be related.
They could be, but I would research as if they are not.
Good luck!

Hi Cheri

I am sorry to confuse you.You did not have to answer me straight away,it's 
not as if I am paying you for advice but thank you anyway!
Hope your day has turned out OK .

Most registrars in the early days of Australia were English and therefore 
listened with English ears.
I had one ancestor who was Cornish and the marriage registrar thought she 
said Hawking for a surname, and she was illiterate so she could not correct 
him.
It turned out to be Hocking.
I am sure that if you could hear me speak you would think I was speaking 
with an English accent.

So all these variables can cause a lot of confusion.

Thank you everyone most sincerely for your comments I shall take them 
onboard.
