Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Births of Merced County CA 1873-1912
Rosemarie, I would love for you to check names for me. They might have been born in another county still searching. I am looking for birthdates and full names on the ones that don't have them. Alma Arminda SilvaElsie Ruth SilvaMary SilvaMary Anne Silva or Children of:John SilvaMarianne SilvaManuel SilvaThe children of these persons would have been my grandfathers cousins My grandfather is George F Silva born in Santa Clara, Ca.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] DNA Relationship of 13 people on list
Sam, I read this list all the time. I've done my DNA test for the female line but not family finder yet. My mother is a Silva through her father. She is from Manteca/Escalon, Calif area. My 2nd great grandmother is Maria Inacia da Silveira born in 1853 Calheta, Sao Jorge. Her spouse was Joao Faustino de Luz. Her mother (my 3rd great grandmother) was Marianna Inacia Silveira born Aug 26 1820 Ribeira Seca. Maria's father was Joao Silveira Nunes. Mariana Inacia Silveira's parents I have listed as Isabel Silveira s. Pedro and Manuel Michado Mendonca Borba. I don't have birth dates for all the parents or grandparents yet. I'm a slow reader of the baptism, etc pages. Does any of your Silveira line have any of these Silveira names listed? I have my family on tribalpages.com. I don't know how to do Gedcom, post my DNA results, or even understand them. I saw your post that had Silveira and the correct island so I thought I would ask. Thanks for your time.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Avila, Borba, Azevedo, Nunes, Machado from Brazil and Sao Jorge island
I also have ancestors from Sao Jorge. My great grandparents were married in St.Catharina church, Calheta. There used to be a big family reunion in Gustine my grandfather and his siblings used to go to. My grand father was George Silva and his father was Jorge da Silva. Jorge was traveling with cousins who got off in Brazil. He continued on to San Fran. He married Arminda Aurora Luis. Jorge's parents were Joao Faustino da Luz, His wife was Maria Inacia da Silviera. Jorge's three brothers were in Calif eventually. Joao's mother was Isabel Angelica do Coracao de Jesus. No father has been found yet. Arminda Luis parents are as follows Manual Luis Sineiro and Maria Isabel Dias. Manual's father was Luis Jose Fagundes and his wife was Antonia Jaconta. Still researching the lines but I have been told Avila, Bettencourt, Borba, Pimental, and a few others are related. I haven't found the connections and my mother is starting to forget things.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] (da) Silva, George Faustino, Sao Jorge, Calheta and Luiz(s) from Terciera- California Silvas from Gustine, Merced, Manteca, San Rafael. .
Dear Adair, My records are limited to what I have found on websites and what I was told which is not much. I have been searching but there are so many with similar names. My great grandmother Arminda Aurora Luiz(s)went through Ellis Island. She married Jorge Faustino da Silva in the Azores. Sao Jorge, Calheta, Santa Catherines(?) in 1906, then she came to America. I have not found the records for Jorge, just his citizenship in Calif. It is under George F Silva in San Rafael, Ca My Grandfather, George Faustine Silva was born on Feb 24, 1909 in San Rafael, Ca. He was a logger above Sonora before becoming a janitor in the Valley. He had a broken back from falling off the tank house as a kid. Jorge (George) and Arminda eventually had a small dairy in the Merced area. If I get that info correct according to my mom. She has talked about other properties her Uncles had that are now gone. My mother, Evelyn, was baptized, but the records burned, she had to find the 90 year old priest to confirm it. That is on record in Chowchilla's Catholic Church. She was born in a barn on the dairy. My Great Uncle used to donate the beef for the Manteca Festa years ago. My mom was raised in Manteca and Stockton and went to St. Mary's high school in Stockton, Ca. I was born in Stockton, but I grew up in Porterville, Ca. I was told there used to be a family gathering every year in Gustine. I have old pictures of relatives but I don't know who they are. I never really talked to Avo George about his family, never saw cousins. My mom has though. She says we are related to Silva, Pimentel, Borba, Luis(z), Diaz. They are cousins she says. Now I have to put the puzzle together. Hopefully I can find some cousins I don't know. I have been taking my Grandfather's siblings and trying to get that info because it is all California. That is why I listed them. I am starting to chip at the ancestral part that goes back to cousins in New Bedford Mass and to the islands.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] (da) Silva, George Faustino, Sao Jorge, Calheta and Luiz(s) from Terciera- California Silvas from Gustine, Merced, Manteca, San Rafael. .
Dear Marcio, The George (Jorge) b 1880 married to Arminda was born in the Azores, Sao Jorge. He came to America in 1898. He had left the Azores with some cousins. Some of those cousins got off in Brazil. Two stayed with him to America. My mother remembers an Uncle Manuel and an Uncle John that were his brothers. One of them had a wife named Rose. George (Jorge) and Arminda's children were the ones to start the Calif line. George married Catherine Cook b 1912, Concrete, Wa Henry married Catherine's sister Nina Jane Cook. He had a son named Henry Jr. William married (?) they had a daughter named Gertrude. She was one of the Princesses for the Manteca Festa back in the 50s. So I have some of the info on the 9 siblings also. Arminda's birth mother Maria d'Asension Diaz died on the boat Manuel Luis(z) was Capt. of. At that time the family lived on Terciera. I do not know where Arminda was born. Manuel took Arminda to Sao Jorge after her mother's death so relatives could help raise her. I do not know if he ever remarried. I was told he did this after dark because he was the capt of a slave ship. Robin On Nov 22, 2011, at 17:40, Marcio Borba wrote: > From what I read from the record. The marriage was June 26, not July.

Marcio, Just talked with my mom who called her brother. He said those were the only names they know of. So you are probably getting better information. Spelling and language are an issue. I have been watching the videos. They are great. Thanks so much for looking the records up.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] transferring genealogy programs
Reading the posts, another site that I use is TribalPages for keeping a copy of my family tree. A distant cousin suggested it. I love that I can put notes and pictures all together for the person. It is free up to a certain point and after that the annual fee is relatively low compared to ancestry. This is not for everyone and others connect it with their FB. It is just another tool. I have all my files saved to a memory stick. So far no compatibility issues with any computer. I have one I use on trips. I can use it anywhere I go to save records on a computer. It just makes it easier for me. If I get a new computer I just open and continue on. I have had no file or program issues yet. Have never used a Mac. So that might be different. I have a couple of programs that I use one is Legacy, but I don't really like it. A lot of genealogists maybe farther ahead in their knowledge than I am. I just thought this might help. Blessings to all on their searches. Robin L On Nov 30, 2011, at 0:02, Cheri Mello wrote: > Celeste, > > Gedcom is really archaic and I seriously doubt it carries the scrapbook > section of FTM.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] marraige records
Dear Gail, No need for the cemetery to charge you. There is a website that I take pictures for of grave sites. It is called www.findagrave.com. Look up the cemetery or the person's name to see if it has already been done. If not there is a place to send a request. I have my ancestors in a virtual cemetery on the site. I manage others I have recorded and when the family finds it I give it to them.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Da Silva family on Sao Jorge Island
Adair, This might be a cousin link somehow. I wish my grandmother had let us meet the family and maybe this would really not be as tough in trying to find info. The Cenus records have my great grandparents in the town of San Joaquin in 1920 and 1930. They have my great grandmother's name spelled wrong. They have my great grandfather and my grandfather's name as Geo Silva. My g uncle is listed as Willie Silva. Other names are spelled incorrect at that time as well. My mother Evelyn Catherine Silva was born around 1940 in the Manteca area. She tells me her grandparents lived out in Merced county, but not specifically where. They are buried outside of Escalon. Her father's birth records are from San Rafael. Her father was a topper for one of the lumber companies when she was a child. Do you have any family that worked in the lumber industry? I do know that the Silva side of our family would have an annual reunion in Gustine every summer. I never attended it though. I will go through some of my pictures and see if any have Borba for a name. I use Archives.com, so I have the records I have found attached to the person in my tree it goes to. What sites have you used to get information from Sao Jorge? I use a translator on my phone to translate for me. My husband thinks I am crazy to be searching, but I am determined to find the line.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Sao Jorge family names
To all, Talked to my mom about the name issue. She said that Ava Arminda said they changed their names on purpose. This may not be for every family, but this is what she was told. They were really poor in the Azores, so when they came to America they felt rich and they wanted rich names so they changed their names to be wealthy Americans. They were so very proud to be called Americans. They kept their heritage but the names were changed. When they went home to visit, the family in the village expected them to have a festa. The visitor showed their wealth by paying for the festa. We have pictures of an aunt paying for her festa. The celebration was a large one. This is a family story of what was expected. It may not have been that way with all families but it might explain some of the name issues. I do not understand it, but I don't know all the issues associated with it either.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Geneology software
Greetings, I started with using legacy and I still use it. Thanks to a cousin, I now have the family website on tribal pages. It is free up to a certain amount. I have yet to reach that limit point. My cousin has 25,000 names so he pays a small fee. I can put citations on it as well as pictures. My cousin has a family members who served military picture page. It sends out a monthly newsletter and I have a guest password for family as well as my own for editing. It does not do any research, just the info. My back up is a flash drive. I am still pretty new at all this, but for a beginner I really like it. There is a lot out there and it gets confusing to me. I feel what I have now is working for what I am doing. As the tree grows, I will probably need to make changes. It is always a works in progress, just like my garden.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] great grandpa help
Dear Mike, I went into find a grave and found a Manuel Joseph Pine b 1893, d 1914. His find a grave number is 88554320. This is at the Holy Ghost Cemetery, Fremont, Alameda County, California. Plot: Row 18. It says it shares the stone with Frank. I went to the Frank Pine in the same cemetery, but I could not find which Frank it was. the Frank Pine listed had others in that area but not the same plot. I found others, Pine, Joe and Joseph, but none had died before 1920. This might be a lead for you.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Terceira marriage records... how to find?
A recommendation; Joao just finished obtaining records for me as well. The first steps in breaking through my current brick wall. He found exactly what I requested and was extremely quick getting my records. I thought it would be slower, like those of us in Oklahoma. I got a packet today, but have yet to open my mail. ( Not home long enough. My son also wrote from boot camp. It's a great day for mail.) I tried for months to do it myself and got very lost, who went where with what name. I highly recommend Joao Ventura. Robin Lebo On Jun 4, 2012, at 22:24, Steve Wright wrote: > I totally agree with Celeste.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] would they?
Michael, I have a similar situation with my great grandfather. He came here supposedly in 1898. The only vessel for that year is a schooner from his island Sao Jorge to Provincetown, Ma. There are names that look like his brothers, but he is now where on the list. They are all probably related somehow since it is a small island. The lady in New Bedford, Ma helping me said that not all ships manifests have been done. We could not find info on the schooner so seeing if he was crew has not been found either. We checked other records that say he came here in 1898 but they do not record the actual date or how. We checked the whale men out of New Bedford he is not there so he did not work in that field. The search continues. He is found in 1906 when he brought his new bride here. They went to New Bedford. Trying to find out how long they stayed in New Bedford and with whom and how they got to California. He has a common name as well Jorge Faustino da Silva, 1880-1950 son of Joao Faustino da Luz. Keep searching it will be found.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Translation Help
Dear Eddie, I have a 3x grandmother named Isabel Angelica do Coracao de Jesus. Her son was named Joao Faustino da Luz. He was born about 1829. No mention of the father. I just got this information and I have not fully researched all of it. This grandmother of mine might be related to your Maria somehow. It might be Maria's grandmother's sister something like that. They were from Sao Jorge. Please keep me posted with what you find on that side of your family. Have not gotten that far. I have been trying to find out how Joao's son Jorge (my great grandfather) came to America. I was told he took care of the animals. His boat arrived in San Francisco in 1898. He went got his new wife and arrived a second time in 1906 in New Bedford. Might have to let it Go for a while and come back to it.
