I'm getting a new computer on Friday and I have Family Tree Maker 2006. If I buy the latest FTM software will the backups that I made with FTM 2006 work. I would assume that FTM 16 is the latest version. Al Sequeira In a message dated 11/12/2014 11:54:43 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, azores@googlegroups.com writes: Dear "E", I know I've shared my back-up strategy before. I'm sure many will see this as extreme, but I've worked with computers for over 20 years in records management and I am very cautious. First, even with diversified destinations (cloud, hard drive, USB, DVD, etc.), you will want at least two different methods of backup. I have seen many programs getting upgraded/patched and either not actually backing up files or, believe it or not, scrambling the content (encryption gone very bad!) As for myself: Mozy: cloud based backup SyncBack Free to: 32GB SDHC card 32GB USB Flash drive (periodically) 500GB USB Fire/Waterproof hard drive (sentrysafe) 8TB NAS Drive (RAID5) 3TB USB Hard Drive Program (application): FTM to NAS Quicken to NAS Nero Burning ROM: Gold layer DVD Now this is overkill for most people, but I have had problems before to teach me to be very protective. One last note, it is also easy to lose track of backups (especially with the number I keep). Be sure to use encryption on your backups to keep them private. Just don't lose the passwords!

Hi Nancy There is another situation that was told to me. My great grandmother was supposed to have been a house keeper for this Cardinal. So if she lived in Santa Cruz Flores would it make scene that she worked for the cardinal on Pico? Al Sequeira In a message dated 11/27/2010 4:31:18 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, fishsongf...@hotmail.com writes: Hi Al, Your grandmothers name as Anna Lourenco born in Santa Cruz doesn't match but..I remember that you have a Pico connection and I seem to remember that possibly it was to Candelaria and/or Sao Mateus. Cardinal Jose da Costa da Nunes was born in Candelaria. His "mansion" there has a wall around it that you have to go through to go up onto the veranda and the door. It's very elegant. Is there a "mansion associated with a Cardinal similar to that on Flores? I ask because your story is familiar to my grandmothers. She was from Candelaria but they came to New Bedford in 1907. Her maternal greatuncle was Cardinal da Nunes. They told a story of his helping with education for family members and the "mansion" that he lived in when he came back to Pico where he is buried in the sarcophagus in the church in Candelaria.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Cardinals living in Flores
I was recently told by a cousin that my father who was born in New Bedford, was sent back to Flores for schooling. My cousin said that he lived with my Grandmothers uncle a Cardinal. This would have been around 1902 to 1910. Does it seem logical that a Cardinal would be living on Flores? Does anyone know how I can find out the names of the Cardinals of the Azores.

Hi Maryanne On this note you have written that I have a Joseph da Rosa born oct 23 1877. I have over 6000 names on my data base with none born oct 23 1877. I have used the data base from the Azores which you mentioned extensively. I also belong to a online group which deals mainly with the Azores. The group address is _azo...@googlegroups.com_ (mailto:Azores@googlegroups.com) . You can ask them to be included and that's all it takes. Send me your phone number so I can talk to you Al Sequeira In a message dated 1/13/2009 5:47:34 P.M. Eastern Standard Time, maryanne_r...@msn.com writes: Hello, Old immigrant communities. San Juan Bautista? My name is Mary Anne Rose and I have been doing genealogical research on my da Rosa family since perhaps 2003, my cousin David Wilson (b. 1940) got involved when he was in sixth grade and interviewed my grandfather about his family, cousins, etc which is hugely helpful. David's mother visited the Azores long before we did in 2005, finding our great grandparents marriage certificate in the Archives in Horal, Faial. But I am more creative at internet research than he. . . so I was able to build upon their research in different ways. And thus I am contacting you. You have a Joseph da Roza born 23 Oct 1877 San Juan Bautista, San Benito, CA Bottom line, our grandfather Anthony Lawrence Rose (christened Hollister CA in April 15, 1883) was of Azorean descent. His godmother was Hyacintha Serpa, according to the priest, which my research leads to connections to your family. i.e. Jacinta "jessy" de Serpa. My grandfather's sister Minnie married Joseph Elmer Serpa (November 1874 - 1938), they had a son Elmer - who was my dad's first cousin and I remember visiting cousin Elmer and his sons in Willow Glen area of san jose, CA. Minnie and Joe Serpa are buried in St. Mary's Cemetery in Gilroy. My great grandmother Rosa Gomes da Conceicao born in Cedros, Faial, lived with them after her husband died in 1913 and she died about 1934. Her brother was Joseph Gomes who married Rosa da Conceicao (Garcia da Rosa) and they lived with their large family near Hollister. You have them listed in the tree notes somewhere as well. In any case, it was a very small Azorean community in San Juan bautista and Hollister in San Juan Bautista. I have not been able to make a connection with the other da Rosa family from the area, but if they came at the same time as my great grandfather Manuel Francisco da Rosa, I am sure they must be cousins, etc. My aunt told me he left Faial about 1864 on a whaling ship and returned to Faial in 1975 to marry his sweetheart in the village. I believe they came from Cascalho, Cedros in Faial. My research at the Archives in Horta bore out much of the family history. On line there is much more available, though I believe there to be transcription errors in this: If the link does not work you can connect to the site through azores genweb, which is where I found this. Took my family back 24 generations. _http://sarmento.eng.uminho.pt/cgi-bin/geneweb?b=CEDROS;lang=en_ (http://sarmento.eng.uminho.pt/cgi-bin/geneweb?b=CEDROS;lang=en) So I will not write more until I find that you are still interested in this research, or that this email still is valid. I live in Manhattan in New York, so I am on the East Coast. My California research has involved my visits "home." And then to Faial. Sincerely, Mary Anne Rose **A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above.
