Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Felix Jose da Silviera - son's change of name

2012-09-27 Thread Maria Sykora
Hi,
I have been having the same problem my grandfather married my
grandmother and took her surname then went back to Azores had more
children under his name, it is really  messy but I'm glad to hear I'm
the only one having that problem.

 Can someone please explain to me why Felix (or Feliz) Jose da Silviera's
 son, Cristiano Machado Pereira born 1826, would not carry his father's
 name. Cristiano's mother, according to the marriage records was Maria
 Joaquina de Jesus, so he didn't get it there either. Cristiano's son (My
 GGrandfather) was also Pereira. The only Pereira that has come up in the
 family tree so far was the grandfather of Maria Joaquina de Jesus who
 appears as Mathias (?) Pereira de Almeida. The one explanation I can find
 so far is that Cristiano used his wife's grandather's middle name which
 seems a bit far out (?).  Felix is definitely Cristiano's father according
 to several records. I'm not versed on the patrynomics as yet but this seems

 something different.

 thanks for any advice

Hi,
I'm new to all this what is NEPS? Is that some company you can get
information about your ancestors?

 Hi, Deb,



 I saw your  post to the Google group about Maria Felicia do Coracao de
 Jesus. I thought I recognized the name so I looked it up in my database and
 I am related to Maria Felicia do Coracao de Jesus. She is a first cousin
 four times removed from me. I attached a chart that shows the
 relationships,
 ending with my mother, Doris Gonsalves.



 Basically, I think that Maria’s grandparents are my fourth
 great-grandparents. My data is also from NEPS and I haven’t yet located the
 original records. You did not mention your relationship to Maria Felicia do
 Coracao de Jesus. Maybe we are related. My ancestors on my mother’s side
 immigrated to California, primarily in San Leandro.

 Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Could someone explain what this means, please?



 Hi all,



 I was looking at the NEPS site for info on my ancestors.  I was working on
 Maria Felicia do Coracao de Jesus, born in 1826 in Feteira, Faial.   Here
 parents were listed as Jose Francisco de Azevedo (born 1801) and Ana
 Felicia
 de Jesus (born 1806).  She married Jose Francisco Martins(born 1828) and
 they had five children:



 1) Maria Felicia

 2) Ana

 3) Manuel

 4) Joao Francisco

 5) Rosa



 At the bottom of the NEPS page I was examining was a note regarding the
 yellow highlighted name (above) :

 * No registo de nascimento (baptismo) da filha Maria, o padre diz que
 a
 baptizanda era filha de Ana Inácia ou seja o nome da sogra da Maria e avó
 paterna da baptizanda!!!

 Google Translate says the English version is:

 * The registration of birth (baptism) daughter of Maria, father says
 baptizanda was the daughter of Ana Ignacia ie the name of Mary's mother and
 grandmother father of baptizanda!

 I'm not sure if I'm just too new to know the meaning of the translation or
 the translation is a bit off.  Any explanation about the meaning of this
 phrase would be appreciated.  Thanks.



 Deb

 Ria,

 Yes, you start with yourself and work backwards.

 Go to your local public library and browse their genealogy section and
 check out a couple of how to books.  I like Unpuzzling Your Past by
 Emily Anne Croom, but there may be others that you prefer.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Looking for new fregueias, villages, or islands

who is looking for my ancestors your hard work is helping me so much.
God Bless you

 It's come up twice this week with 2 researchers who have found records that
 lead them out of the comfort of their island/freguesia to somewhere new.

 Azores GenWeb has the maps (I'm working on color coding some of them to
 show each freguesia - a project that wound up being back burnered). All you
 have to do is click on your island and a new window opens with the map of
 that island, listing all the freguesias, church(es) within that freguesia,
 years covered, and even links to the CCA or NEPS (for those with online
 databases).

 You can all thank Kathy Cardoza for the hard work she puts into the Azores
 GenWeb.
