Thanks Cheri!  Does the freguesias mean the parish they were from?

Thanks again,

[AZORES-Genealogy] 1180s to the early 1900 research

[ldykas99]

I have been trying to do research on both sides of my family.  Both
came from San Miguel.  My paternal grandparents came to America in
1907 and my maternal grandparents came in 1914.  I can not find them
on any passanger ship lists. I find them on census forms but thats
it.  I have stories from my parents but only bits and pieces.  Not
sure where to begin.

Thank you,
Kelly Souza-Young
