Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Teaching Myself a Little Portuguese....regarding the FURTADO Family.
Thanks, Cheri! >From what I have been able to find, Grandma is the mother of Maria do Esprito Santo and the mother-in-law of Caetano Moniz FURTADO. This would mean that Vovo' is Rosa de Jesus, the mother of Ermelinda CARREIRO (NUNES). In the other book, I found a baptism record of the following: March 3, 1902 - Evangelina Moniz FURTADO, daughter of Caetano M. FURTADO and Maria do Espirito Santo, both of Arrifes, St. Michael, Azores. Godparents were Jose Carreiro de Medeiros e Ermelinda de Jesus. I'm wondering if this Ermelinda de Jesus is the same as Ermelinda CARREIRO (NUNES), daughter of Rosa de Jesus? Could Jose Carreiro de Medeiros be her brother given that Ermelinda's father had died by 1901? (The passenger list of the Dona Maria, dated 1901, listed Rosa de Jesus as a widow. Ermelinda married Manoel NUNES in 1904.) Pat McCoy == On 1/6/12, Cheri Mello wrote: > Avó is more like grandmother. Vovó is more like grandma. > > Avô is grandfather.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Portugues Naming Customs - Can Someone Help Me Understand?
I've been researching the Azorean roots of a friend of mine and have been able to trace his family tree back to his grandmother, Ermelinda CORREIRO (NUNES) and, recently, to his great-grandparents, Jose' CORREIRO and Rosa de Jesus. I've just recently learned that Jose' CORREIRO and Rosa de Jesus had another daughter, Maria do Espirito Santo (FURTADO). Not understanding the Portuguese naming customs is creating some confusion for me when attempting to research the various branches of one family. Could someone help clarify how Ermelinda and Maria were named so differently even though they are sisters? Thanks!

[AZORES-Genealogy] What Happened to FURTADO'S in Fall River, Massachusetts?
A few months ago, there used to be a website for FURTADO'S Chouricos and Linguica in Fall River, Massachusetts at the same street address where my friend's grandparents used to live. Now the website is gone and the closest type of website I can find for Chouricos and Lingquica in Fall River, Massachusetts is a place called MELLO'S. Does anyone know what has happened? Thanks!

Thanks, Judi. I think I found a copy at Amazon and ordered it. I'm hoping I found the right title and author(s).

[AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree from Mary Louise Rego
I'm not certain if Mary Louise Rego is subscribed to this forum. She has posted a family tree, which includes Ermelinda CARREIRO NUNES but she has marked it as "private". Ancestry.com has suggested that I attempt to contact her. I thought I would give it a try here, just in case.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Researching NUNES, CARREIRA/CARREIRO, FURTADO Families = Fall River, Massachusetts
I came across something that has piqued my curiosity. John Raposo mentioned a baptismal record for Evangelina Moniz FURTADO where the godparents were listed as Jose' CARREIRO de MEDEIROS and Ermelinda de JESUS. Then I came across a listing on Ancestry.com that mentions Caetano Moniz FURTADO and Maria (do Espirito Santo) Esirito MEDEIROS. Is MEDEIROS the family surname and would that connect Jose' to Maria?

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Locating the village or freguesia
Okay. Just in case anyone is researching Caetano Moniz FURTADO and Maria do Espirito Santo FURTADO, I found the following listing on the S. S. Dona Maria, sailing from Sao Miguel, Azores on 30 March 1901 and arriving in the Port of New York 12 April 1901: Caetano Moniz FURTADO 24 M Laborer Portuguese Fall River, MA Maria do Espirito Santo 22 F Domestic Portuguese Fall River MA It appears that they arrived with Ermelinda (CARREIROher last name was not included on the roster...it only listed her first name) and it also appears that Ermelinda's mother, Roza de Jesus 40 F Widow is listed with them. I have reason to suspect that this is the same Caetano Moniz FURTADO who founded the business FURTADO'S in Fall River, Massachusetts, selling New England Chourico and Linguica.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Locating the village or freguesia
FYI, at FamilySearch.org, I found the following under: "Massachusetts Marriages, 1841-1915 for Ermelinda J. CARREIRO" Name: Manoel NUNAS Event: Marriage Date: 24 Sep 1904 Place: Fall River, Massachusetts Gender: Male Age: 35 Marital Status: Married Birthplace: St. Michael's, Az. Estimated Birth Year: 1869 Father: Manoel Mother: Francisca Candida Spouse: Ermelinda J. CARREIRO Marital status: Married Father: Jose C. Mother: Rosa De Jesus I don't know anything more other than what I've found at FamilySearch.org. I don't know their dates of births, when and where they married, when and where they died, etc. I'm not certain how they are connected to the FURTADOs that are also listed on the baptismal record. The photocopy of the baptismal record of their son, Manuel Edward NUNES, states the following about the birthplace of Manoel NUNES: "S. Vicente Ferreiro, S. Miguel (Acores)" and for Ermelinda CARREIRO NUNES: "Arrifes, S. Miguel". Is it safe to presume that S. Vicente Ferreiro and Arrifes are the villages they are from even though I've seen them listed as "parishes"? Thanks!

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Locating the village or freguesia
Hi, Linda. With all the different correspondences going out and coming in, I'm not certain if I've contacted her yet. I don't know anything about the parents of Manoel NUNES and his wife, Ermelinda CARREIRO. BTW, I've noticed that part of your name is FURTADO. One the baptismal records of Manoel's and Ermelinda's son, the names of Caetano Moniz FURTADO and Maria do Espirito Santo FURTADO are listed. Are those FURTADOs familiar to you, by chance? Thanks!

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Locating the village or freguesia
Thanks, Shirley. Manoel NUNES and Ermelinda CARREIRO were married in Fall River, Massachusetts, USA, on September 24, 1904. I have been trying to track down their families of origins and the villages or frequesias they came from before they emigrated to America. Thanks, again.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Locating the village or freguesia
Hi, Shirley. I'm wondering if I could add my question here as well. I have two people, from Sao Miguel, that I am researching: Manoel NUNES from Sao Vincente Ferreiro Parish, (born about 1867 to 1869) and his spouse, Ermelinda Carreiro, (born about 1881), in Arrifes Parish. I've attempted to send an e-mail to both parishes but never received any response. Do you think you can assist me? Thanks!

[AZORES-Genealogy] Researching NUNES, CARREIRA/CARREIRO, FURTADO Families = Fall River, Massachusetts = More Info
Here's what I have on the grandparents of my friend: Manoel/Manuel NUNES (born circa 1867), came from Sao Vicente Ferreira, Sao Miguel, The Azores to Fall River, Massachusetts circa 1887. His first marriage to Maria MACHADO took place, in Fall River, Massachusetts, on February 2, 1891. Maria MACHADO NUNES died April 22, 1903, from pulmonary tuberculosis in Fall River, Mass. They had at least three daughters from this union. (I have very little information on Maria MACHADO.) Manoel/Manuel NUNES remarried, on September 24, 1904, to Ermelinda CARREIRO, in Fall River, Mass. This union produced two more children. Manoel/Manuel NUNES died November 3, 1927 in Fall River, Mass. The only son of Manoel/Manuel NUNES and Ermelinda CARREIRO NUNES, Manuel Edward NUNES, was born November 6, 1920 and was baptized three days later at Saint Michael's Catholic Church, Fall River, Mass. The sponsors listed on the Certificate of Baptism were: Caetano Monis FURTADO and Maria do Espirito Santo FURTADO. I've found a passenger list, from 1901, that lists Ermelinda, Caetano FURTADO, and Maria do Espirito Santo but I have not been able to locate any passenger lists that correctly match the Manoel/Manuel NUNES that I have. The lists that have "Manuel or Manoel NUNES" listed are all the wrong ageseither way too old or way too young. There's been a family rumor that the male ancestors worked as fishermen before coming to America so I wonder if Manoel/Manuel was a mariner who arrived as a crew member and decided to stay. I'm also trying to figure out how Ermelinda CARREIRO and Mr. and Mrs. FURTADO are related. The Certificate of Baptism does not mention if they are blood-related. According to the church records at Saint Michael's in Fall River, Massachusetts, Manoel/Manuel NUNES was from Sao Vicente Ferreira, Sao Miguel, Azores, and Ermelinda CARREIRO NUNES was from Arrifes, Sao Miguel, Azores. The records do not indicate where the FURTADOs came from. (Possibly Arrifes, given that they arrived with Ermelinda?) I'm curious about their Azorean origins and the possibility that my friend may still have cousins in the old country.
