[AZORES-Genealogy] Children in CCA passport records?
I am beginning to look for my Great-grandmother in the passport records. According to family tradition, she came without her parents. She married in California at age 16. Census records suggest she came possibly as young as 8. Would she be listed individually? I haven't seen any ages that are young. When you are searching, do you look at each name or scan for the correct island and then look at the name?

My mother was 100% from the Azores. My dad was basically English and German.

I have been getting Family Finder matches with North Circumpolar and European Northlands sounding names. I have nothing at this point that even gives a hint of how or through what line to connect.

The first was Jose de Freitas da Silva and his second wife Caroline Pereira (Perry) who moved to Sacramento sometime after 1900 and sometime before 28 Oct 1902 (last child born in Sacramento). They had 5 children from his second marriage: Joseph-born 1888, Virginia-born 1891, Manuel Joseph-born 1897, Frank- born 1899, and Rose- born 1902. The second part of the Silva family that ended up in Sacramento was Silvina Silva who married John Perry. Silvina was the sister of my great-grandmother Mary Ferreira and daughter of Jose de Freitas da Silva. Silvina and John were married in Hawaii around 1897. They moved from Hawaii (Maui) to Sacramento around 1905 or thereabouts. Their children were Mary-born 1898 (Maui, Hawaii), Louise-born 1899 (Hawaii), Philip-born 1903 (Hawaii), Helen-born 1907 (Sacramento), and possibly a John born 1909 in Sacramento. I have found the census records for Silvina Perry and her family in the 1910-1940 census, but yet to find a trace of them in the 1900 census. Any possible connections would be great.

Your personal page at FTDNA will have its own Family Finder section. One section is your Matches (see List of Matches screen shot above). Since I don't have everyone's permission to post their names, I blocked out most of it except Shirley Allegre who is on this list. The notes in red in the screen shot are mine. I'll just use Shirley since she's my dad's Portuguese match (the others are my dad's American half. My dad is 50% Portuguese, so I used his DNA for Family Finder. He will get more Portuguese matches than I will, since I'm only 25% Portuguese). My dad matches Shirley Jane Cambra Allegre (the buttons under her name give me her email, allow me to make notes, or view her Gedcom). The math and science (and there's A LOT) suggests my dad and Shirley are 2nd to 4th cousins. They fine tune it more in the next column and suggest that they are 3rd cousins. That's based on the fact that in the next column shows that they share a total of 105.71 cM (centoMorgans - a genetic unit of measure). The longest block is 16.76 cMs long. Since I know my dad and Shirley are 4th cousins, once removed, I assigned that (there's so much intermarriage in my lines and Shirley's that it screwed up the algorhythmn slightly). Shirley's surnames should have appeared, but they didn't (you can see where my dad has his American lines bolded where the surnames match). I'm guessing it's because I put my de for de Mello in the given name field in my program and Shirley may put it in her surname field or pre-surname field. The screen shot titled Where Dad Matches Shirley shows the 24 locations where my dad and Shirley match. This is the Barilla brand that fused together with the other brands. It's probably a lot of our Antonio de Mello line with a little of the other lines thrown in. The screen shot titled Population Finder Beta shows my dad is 99.43% Western European. They tested only French, Basque, Ornkey Island (the are to Scotland what the Azores are to Portugal) and Spanish. For whatever reason, the geneticists. think my dad's DNA is closer to French than Spain. You can't see it on the screen shot, but it's says below it's in Beta with a link to 36 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) with the gory details. I figure one day when they test Portuguese, my dad will be reconfigurated. Hope this helps!

Cheri, I did my DNA and get reports periodically, but I have never been able to figure anything out. Can you figure out any clues from what you can see? Thank you, Diane Cox On Tue, Mar 29, 2011 at 1:30 PM, Cheri Mello gfsche...@gmail.com wrote: HI Sam, I guess you are talking about your brother's kit? On your brother, I see these difference/mutations: HVR1: 16192T, 16270T HVR2: 73G,150T, 204C, 263G, 315.1C, 533G (For those who want to know: HVR is HyperVariable Region. These are 2 specific areas that the geneticists look at on the D-loop area of the mitochondria. HVR1 covers about 440 base pairs. Only the differences from the Cambridge Reference Sequence (CRS) are reported back. HVR 2 covers about 574 base pairs. Again, only the differences are reported). So I'll go and look to see how many of your brother's mutations are in the top 50 most common: http://www.smgf.org/mtdna/common_mutations.jspx They are all there, except 533G. But let's pretend for a moment that they were all in the top 50 mutations. So then you go to look at his matches. Section 1 - Low Resolution Matches - HVR1 - 98 matches Mrs. Susan Crumb (HVR2) Mr. Daniel Boone Mrs. Katie Cross (FGS) Etc. Susan Crumb tested both HVR 1 and HVR2. Scroll down to see if she matches your brother on HVR2. Mr. Daniel Boone tested only HVR1 as nothing is after his name. Mrs. Katie Cross tested the Full Genomic Sequence. Not only did she test the 440 pairs on HVR 1 and the 540 on HVR2, but she did the entire 16,000+ molecule. Scoll down to see if she appears in your HVR2 matches. 98 matches isn't too much. You can turn off the alerts for the HVR1 matches. But if someone comes along who only tests HVR1, you won't know about it. But you have that 533G. That's on your HVR2. I'll email the anthropology unit at FTDNA and ask how common that mutation is (it could be # 51). Then again, it could be # 450 on the list and be real special. Since your HVR1 region is really common, you can turn off those matches if you like. Basically, it's telling you that you, Susan Crumb, Daniel Boone, and Katie Cross's common ancestor is Wilma Flintstone from 75,000 years ago. I don't know about you, but I'm lucky just to have a couple of branches that made it to the Middle Ages. And that's 500 years ago.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Interesting story with recipes.
Thank you! All I remember is a big soup pot and eggs. When I asked a cousin many years later, they thought Great-Grandmother must have been making kale soup. The recipes for kale soup I found did not include eggs so this recipe was interesting. Unfortunately none of Great-grandmother's recipes were passed down to my generation.

The sopas served at the Portuguese halls in California are served either with the broth and bread in one pot and the meat and cabbage in the other pot (and then you put it together yourself on your plate) or sometimes it's broth and cabbage in one pot and the meat in the other or sometimes it's all put together in one big pot. I just plop it on my plate. It all goes to the same place - my stomach!
