[AZORES-Genealogy] mtDNA test name labels
I have just completed my first mtDNA test for my mother - age 95. I'm not sure that I used the proper name on the submission. I used her married name with maiden name in parenthesis. This does not reflect her Azorean heritage since each time there is a marriage the woman's name changes. When I look at the results in the Azores project I'm not sure what if reflected in the results list (names). Are these marriage, maiden or most distant ancestor? I'd like to make any necessary corrections. Thanks for any help. -- For options, such as changing to List, Digest, Abridged, or No Mail (vacation) mode, log into your Google account and visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/Azores.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Searching Madruga, Cardoza - Azores
I have been following your group for several months and am amazed at how so many of you have been able to locate where you ancestors came from. I have been researching intermittently for 50 years and have had little success. My great-grandparents, *Manuel Perry Madruga* (b. about February 15, 1852, Azores) married *Phillipa Perry Cardoza*, (b. about August 25, 1865, Azores) in St Ann's church, Gloucester, MA, April 18, 1883. They had six children: Mary, March 9, 1889; Willie P.,September 26, 1890; John Perry (my ggrandfather) December 6, 1892; Gertrude, August 10, 1896; Manuel Perry, October 8, 1899. All were born in Gloucester. I have been unable to get baptismal records because the church says that their records are with the Boston Archdiocese. I spent eight hours at their archives and there are no records there. They arrived before Ellis Island. I can find no naturalization papers for them in Gloucester. All birth and death records indicate only Azores. I am getting old and would like to visit the village where they came from and to finally connect with my Portugese heritage. My grandfather died in the 1918 epidemic and so any connection to the past wast lost. PLEASE - anyone - *HELP*. I need advice and direction.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Silva, Viera, Silveira in Gloucester, Massachusetts
Vivian, I have Silva great grandparents from Gloucester. Many genealogical records are available on line from the city of Gloucester. Go to their web page, click on departments, then archives where you can do a vital records search. Good luck! Enjoy!

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Silva, Viera, Silveira in Gloucester, Massachusetts
Carol, I am looking for Manual Perry Madruga, born Azores about 1852, father Manuel M. and mother Mary "Joseph". Don't know when or how he came to America, when or how he got here. Married Phillipa Perry, April 18, 1883 in Gloucester. She was born Azores, about 1862, father John, mother Mary "Tracy". Most references to the Portugese in the Gloucester records say Great Western Islands, no villages. Any suggestions?

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Silva, Viera, Silveira in Gloucester, Massachusetts
I am trying to research my ancestors from Pico and Fial, Madrugas from Pico?? and Silva's from Fial. My grandmother. Annie Jossephine Silva was born in Gloucester July 5, 1896. Her mother was Mary E. Figuerado (also known as Mary Figaret on her birth certificate) and her father was Manuel S. Silva. Manuel Silver was born August 19, 1860. Manuel's parents were Manuel and Anna (Hanna "Mosianna") both born Azores.
