Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Finding S.S. Braunfels Ship List or?

Gloria,

Why don't you detail the information you have on your Carvalho in Hawaii.
Where are they on the census in 1900?

Why do think the Manuel dos Santos Carvalho on the Braunfels is the right
person?


I have researched a Carvalho family who arrived in Hawaii in 1912. They
turned out to be from Braganca, Portugal.

 HI RICK,



 I HAVE LOOKED IN THE PASSPORTS AND FOUND MANUEL DOS SANTOS CARVALHO BUT
 THE NAME OF HIS WIFE AND 2 DAUGHTERS ARE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT THAN WHAT WE
 KNOW THE NAMES TO BE. IN PASSPORT APPLICATION, MY

 GREAT GRANDMOTHER (Manuel’s wife) Margarida de Ressureicao, daughters,
 Erminia and Rita. OUR FAMILY KNOWS THEM AS, WIFE; MARIA ROSA, DAUGHTERS,
 MARY AND MAGDALINA. SO THAT IS WHERE THE CONFUSION COMES IN. HOW CAN I FIND
 INFO. CAN I GET INFO FROM MY GRANDMOTHERS ALIEN CARD?



 THANK YOU RICK

 *I take it you have a date and a ship name and need to look at the
 passenger list for the SS Braunfels. If they arrived at Ellis Island then
 it can be found on the Ellis Island website. Also is Manuel dos Santos
 Carvalho how his name appears on the ship index? In the passport records
 his name may be listed as Manuel Carvalho or Manuel dos Santos.*

 Would greatly appreciate any info!! My great grandfathers name Manuel dos
 Santos Carvalho is in ship index with wife and 3 children. One of the
 children was my grandmother. Trying to find more info on her parents and
 siblings besides the census. Tried numerous times searching the passport
 application from Ponta Delgada, Angra and Horta. Found Manuel dos Santos
 Carvalho (in Ponta Delgada passports) but the names with his is not my
 grandmother, her mother or siblings. Names are not even close to what we
 know. Would anybody know how I could get the S.S. Braunfels ship list of
 all names on that ship or is there another way I could find them? Just the
 other day my cousin was looking in her mothers box of papers and found my
 grandmothers ALIEN REGISTRATION RECEIPT CARD. Is there a way to find info
 with her alien card? It is a duplicate card and her birth year is wrong!
 She was called Maggie but birth name was Magdalina. Also, when requesting a
 death certificate would I use the death date that is on a headstone? I am
 attaching my grandmothers alien card



 Thank you

 Gloria

You will find a Manuel W Robert from Portiugal  in Trinity county, Ca in
 !880 and a Manuel Robert in Humboldt county in 1900 from Portugal. A Frank
Roberts in Siskyiou.

There are dozens of Portuguese born who used the surname Roberts in
California from 1880 -1930

It may be that the father in Flores had a first name of Roberto that got
reflexed to the last name .

 Andrea,

 The snippet does no good. Best to say you got it from the 1900 U.S.
 Federal Census in Sacramento, Sacramento Co, California for Joseph Roberts
 and let us hunt it down (for those with Ancestry subscriptions).

 This does NOT say that anyone was born in Flores. It says that the FATHER
 of Joseph Roberts was born in Flores. Weird that they specified one island
 and everything else they generalized.

 The 1880 for Euponia Twp in Lyon Co, KS (how in the world did some
 Portuguese people end up there???)...Joseph has a brother, Charles aka
 Carlos. If you can't find a lead on Joseph, go chase Charles/Carlos.

 I see a variety of immigration dates for these people. And naturalization.
 You really need to get that.

 Thank you very much for looking, I feel like I keep hitting a wall!  I
 was hoping that having a date would be helpful.  The photo above is the
 1900 census that mentions Flores, everything else says Portugal until a
 more recent census that says that ROSA and CLEMENTINA were born in the
 Azores.

 I believe they were married around 1867  I was hoping to see her name
 ROSA LIMA in the marriages or the daughter's name CLEMENTINA (born 1868)
 and figure out what the original surname was but have had no luck do far...

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Exposto Search and Surname

2015-07-01 Thread luiznoia .
There seem to be certain churches that are a center of Exposto baptisms (
Lomba, Flores in my records) and that they tend to do large batches of
them.

In a Luz,  Graciosa book, there were almost 60 in a row, with ages from a
week to 4 years old.

Sometimes the parent  who is raising them is named in the document, but
often not. In the case the parents are named, often padrinhos are named
too. That could track the correct Alexandre from it's use on his marriage
record.

Naming is likely the priest's choice

 great grandfaher's surname was Ramos, not Francis.  I am trying to verify
 this information. My problem is in trying to decipher the handwriting on
 the marriage record. I am not sure of the spelling of Ramos. Can anyone
 help me with this?  I appreciate the help.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Joseph Monsebo (or Mancebo) Rodrigues, Flores to Hawaii

2015-05-31 Thread luiznoia .
The Mancebo usually means  the Younger. If Jose Rodrigues has a son, he
would be known as Jose Rodrigues Mancebo to differentiate from his father.

It is often seen applied to the first born son, when he is named for his
father .It can become part of a surname.

There is a family group in Lajes, Flores that has used the Rodrigues
Mancebo surnames consistently for more than three generations

Do you have any more info? a birthdate, death date , place of residence?

 Repost for Gloria Rodrigues, suchislife55 at gmail.com

 Hi Debra,

 My name is Gloria Rodrigues. Started doing my genealogy about 8 months
 now. My great grandfather Joseph Monsebo Rodrigues (assuming his name was
 Jose Rodrigues Mancebo) went to Hawaii from Flores Island (late 1860's to
 early 1870's) on a whaling ship and jumped ship there. That is all we know!
 We found info on him in Hawaii (not much) but not have been able to trace
 him or family in Flores. Was wondering if you came across that name in your
 research. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Finding my great grandfather

2015-04-27 Thread luiznoia .
Pacific whaling ships went out for years at a time. They left out of New
England, rounded Cape Horn, resupplied at Hawaii, and often again at
Australia. The early Hawaii and Australian newspapers list their arrivals,

sometimes the crew members who were released, or jumped ship and were being
sought. Stories of crew misbehavoirs and court actions appear also. Try
searching in this Australian database:

http://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper

The Hawaiian Gazette at the Library of Congress can be searched back to
1868

http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn83025121/

The Pacific Commercial advertiser back to 1856

http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn82015418/

http://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn82015418/


 Many of the earliest Portuguese in Hawaii arrived on whalers long before
the government sponsored immigrant ships started.

 I don't think the whalers went to Hawaii.  The people who research Hawaii
 know best though.  To get to Hawaii from the Azores, you left from Ponta
 Delgada on the island of Sao Miguel or from Funchal on Madeira (Madeira is
 not part of the Azores).

 Also check your years.  Born 1952 or 1955 but died in 1919?  Did you mean
 1852 or 1855?

 A how to is here: goo.gl/Ds6UKd

 You also might want to look at the Portuguese Hawaiian site, Your Island

 web link may not work.

 I'm not sure if the Portuguese Genealogical Society of Hawaii has a web

I've read about 50 years of the Horta passports now and find very few
Flores residents on them. Less than one person per two pages. So, maybe 1
percent

I'm hoping Angra turns up more.

The format of the Angra passports is very different, a book entry for each
passport rather than the table form that Horta uses. Less information is
given.

 Brenda SP,

 The 3 ports for the Azores are:
 Horta on Faial
 Angra on Terceira
 Ponta Delgada on Sao Miguel

 Since Flores is closest to Horta, I'd look there first.  If they needed to
 get out though, they could have caught the next ship, regardless of the
 port.  Most sailed from the port closest to them though.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Reconciling Information

2015-03-19 Thread luiznoia .
I found the format incorrect. My father's family comes from Spain and
Mexico and I've worked with thousand of records over the last 20 years.

Joao Ventura has the more correct form.Jesus Gonzales and Maria
Moreno marry.

She becomes Maria Moreno  Gonzales, or in older form Maria Moreno de
Gonzales

When her husband died, she becomes Maria Moreno Vda de Gonzales  (Vda-
viuda, widow of)

If their son is named Jesus, then he is named Jesus Gonzlaes Moreno.

Some times the new compound surname becomes a surname and a marriage adds
to that.

Example from my family-

Francisco Robledo married Angela Montante, their son is Heladio Robledo
Montante

Heladio Robledo Montante then married Margaret Edgar

Their child is Heladio Robledo Edgar. Because the family moves back and
forth between the US and Mexico, the surname becomes compound

Heladio Robledo Edgar marries Artemia Calleja, and she is now Artemia
Robledo Edgar de Calleja


Although, at the time I was born , the US couldn't grasp the compound
 surname, I'm Eric Allan  Robledo Edgar but legally Eric A R Edgar


What this has to do with Portuguese geneaolgy, is the compound surname
issue. You will see this as  Correia de Melo de Rosa Duarte  
Ferreira de Avila etc..

These name get passed down as compound for generations, until they arrive
in the US. The they usually lose one of those . It could become a middle
name.

The first part could be dropped. The second part could be dropped, often
I've seen the first part dropped and the second contracted with the De.

So If you're looking for a  Francisco Ferreira de Avila,now in the US  he
may be :

Frank Ferreira

Frank Avila

Frank F de Avila

Frank Diavila, Deavala, or Davilla

or he could have chucked it all, and  is now Frank Smith

 Hi Anthony,

 Really nice indeeed, just one small point when you mention the Spanish
 naming tradition. You've got it wrong. See here:
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_naming_customs#Generational_transmission

 You wrote: For example, if a couple named Jesus Gonzales and Maria Moreno
 had children, their children would use the 'surname' Moreno Gonzales.

 The correct order in Spain (the one in Europe) would actually be Gonzales
 Moreno (paternal+maternal). And the maternal 'Moreno' would be dropped when
 naming the children. It's extremely confusing to tell you the truth, and
 i'm used to the Portuguese two-surname tradition that's basically the same,
 except it's maternal+paternal.

 It may be that you're right when describing those traditions when applied
 to some other Spanish-speaking individuals, but in that case don't call
 them Spanish or you'll risk confusing your audience.

 Cheri,

 Thanks for the search info.

 Sorry for my confusion.  I am a novice at this.

 I am trying to get back to the person who sent me information pages on Da

 It was from *luisnoia  *with the e mail address noblankt...@gmail.com

 I thought that e mail was Eric's.

 yahoo is linking all the e mails and I need to expand them to read
 everything.  But I might have also deleted some without knowing I deleted

 Jeanne L,

 I'm not Eric.  NEPS doesn't want to be called NEPS anymore.  They want to
 be called CITCEM-GHP.  NEPS was something like Nucleu Estudia para

 Something like the Core Study of Population and Society in English.  I'd
 have to look up CITCEM-GHP on their web site.  It's a mouthful, so most
 people still call it NEPS.

 As for the CCA, you can't search their pages.  When you get to your
 freguesia and find the years you want, you go page by page looking for your
 ancestor.

 Recent history depends on your definition of recent.  10 years ago?  50
 years ago?  The records are online up to 1910/1911 or so. That's it.  Any
 other 1900s record you will have to write to the Civil Registry for that
 particular council that your freguesia belongs to.  They don't do searches,
 so hopefully you have the exact date.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Quadros from Sao Jorge island, Telles from Faial

2015-03-05 Thread luiznoia .
Here is the original post from back in 2008 from John Q

I am looking for information on my ggrandfather Joseph (most likely
born Jose) Quadros who
immigrated from the Azores to Boston in about 1879. To the best of my
knowledge, he was born on Sao Jorge on 24 March 1863 (possibly the son
of Joao with mother's name unknown at this time). He lived in the
Charlestown section of Boston, married Elizabeth Sangster, and had
four sons (Percy, Joseph, John and Gordon) and a daughter (Helen). He
worked at the Charlestown Naval Shipyard where he died in an
industrial accident in 1904.

I have no knowledge as to which parish he was born in. I tried
searching the LDS copies of the baptism records for that period, but
as most of you know the quality is poor and the local machines are not
in good shape. I recognize only a few Portuguese words so that doesn't
help me any. I looked into paying someone, but even though the cost
may be justified if successful, there is of course no guarantee that
anything would be found. I was excited to discover on my own that the
Portuguese government is putting much more legible digital photos of
the records online with excellent zoom tools to search the pages
closely, but so far I haven't found my ggf's record.

I would appreciate any information anyone may have on Jose Quadros
from that time period in Sao Jorge, or any information as to when more
parishes may be available online. Thank you.

 Repost for Eric Edgar, noblanktree at gmail.com

 I have been working on this Quadros family and have their origin and
 descendents

 Manuel Jose Quadros b. 1857 Calheta , Sao Jorge is Joseph's brother. He
 married Filomena Telles in 1882 in Ribeirinha, Faial. He has four children
 there and then just disapears after 1888. In 1892 his wife takes the family
 to join her Telles relatives in Mission San Jose, California.

 Filomena continues to be listed as married up to the 1910 census, then
 re-marries in 1912.

 Jose was born on the date you have in Topo, Sao Jorge.

 In a 2002 e mail, you had mentioned a Henry Escobar living in California.

 My mother's cousin was Henry Escobar (born 1916) who,  in 1993 lived in
 San Anselmo, CA.  He moved from there around 2000 to possibly San Rafael or
 there abouts.)

 Henry's  father,  Joe Rosa Escobar, immigrated from Cascalho,  Cedros,
 Faial  along with four siblings including his sister,( my maternal
 Grandmother),  Ana Clara da Rosa de Escobar (born 1884).  Ana and  three
 siblings settled in Taunton, MA  but Joe went to California.

 Henry Escobar (born 1916)  and my mother shared the same maternal
 grandfather, Antonio da Rosa de Escobar (born 1846, married Maria Clara da
 Rosa de Medeiros in 1874)  all from Cascalho, Cedros, Faial.

 Cousin  Henry from California made at least nine trips back to Cedros and
 I am hoping people there would still know of him.

 Cousin Henry, who would now be 99 years old, had a son Jeffrey A. Escabar

 I am hoping perhaps the Henry you corresponded with is related to my

 Repost for Patricia Phillips, patricia.phillips1 at earthlink.net

 I am Patricia Phillips, and have been trying to make connections
 pertaining to my mother's family heritage.  It is difficult to do so
 because my grandfather died in 1929, and my mother was only 10 years old.

 Her Aunt was Mary Avila (Avilla), who was married to John Borba.  In the
 History of Stanislaus County book, his last name is listed as Azevedo.  I
 understand John Borba came to the United States from Brazil.  To my
 understanding all the children from his marriage are deceased.

 My great grandfather was Joseph Machado Avila (Avilla).  He was from Sao
 Jorge.  He married Isabelle Conceicao de Nunes.  Their sons with the
 exception of one carried the Machado middle name.  My Grandfather was
 George Machado Avila (Avilla). I shared the Avilla, because the family was
 uncertain about the spelling of the last name, and when doing my research,
 I need both names.

 My mother is Annabelle Avila (Avilla).  She was born on my Great
 Grandfather's ranch in Crows Landing, California.  Her name is the
 combination of two Avila Aunts:  Anna and Belle Avila.

 My Grandmother was from Gustine, California, but she was not Portuguese,
 therefore, after my Grandfather died in an automobile accident on the
 Pacheco Pass, my Grandmother distanced the children and herself from the
 Avila family.

 This may not be helpful to anyone, but I thought I should share this
 information.

 Regards,
 Patricia

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Carvalho (Flores) and Thomas (Pico) Families who settled in San Joaquin Valley

2015-02-26 Thread luiznoia .
Annie,

I saw this tree also. Some of the children here are documented, but others
seem to be pasted on because the surname matches.

They need to be checked against the California death index and the CCA
records for Santa Cruz Flores. Even a  shiplist of the collective family
would help determine which belong.

Like this on from 1940- Maria J Freitas Carvalho arriving from Flores. It
references two daughters- Ana Rodrigues Carvalho back in Sta Cruz, Flores
and Christina CM Dias in Fresno

 The parish church for the freguisia of *Bretanha* in the concelho of *Ponta

 so the records read *Ajuda de Bretanha*.

 *Nossa Senhora de Ajuda* means Our Lady of Help ( or assistance).
 There is another freguisia in the neighboring concelho of *Ribeira

 Paternos-  the father's parents,  Materno-the mother's parents


 On differences in names in records- It's common that a persons baptism
 record, marriage (casamento), and death record (obito) are going to be
 written by different priests

 The way they record the names does tend to change. In the marriage
 record, she was recorded  as Maria Jose de Freitas, yes, same person

 The baptism record shows the given name at birth, but the middle name
 used later is often the confirmation name. The surname can be the father's,

 young man maybe 15 or 16 yrs on a whaling ship.  He ended up in California
 in 1867 and settled in Hawkinsville, Ca, which is near Yreka, Ca about 15
 miles south of the Oregon border.  So far I have not been able to find out
 who his parents were or which village in Flores that he was from.   Family

 *Nossa Senhora de Ajuda* means Our Lady of Help ( or assistance).

The baptism record shows the given name at birth, but the middle name used

Annie,

Yes a different Carvalho family.

The record that says Maria Jose de Freitas is the same person. It could be
a transcription error by the archivist, or the way the priest wrote it.

I live in the San Francisco Bay Area. My mom's family came from Flores and
I have cousins raised there that are now in the US and Canada.

 Eric,

 I want to be sure I understand you.

 Are you saying this family you gave me information for is not my family?
 Because the names and dates fit, but my family did NOT go to Hawaii,
 though I'm in contact with a good friend in Hawaii whose husband is a
 Carvalho.

 And are you saying that
 Maria de Jesus de Freitas and
 Maria de Jose de Freitas are the same person because a different priest
 did the recording?

 Thank you for all the information. I really appreciate it.
 I figured out after a bit that the paternos and maternos were the
 grandparents.

 Do you live in Flores? Because my Tio Alfredo just passed away there a few
 years ago and I still have a cousin, Joaquina, who lives there with her
 husband whose last name is Felix. I'm not sure what became of the house
 that Tio Alfredo lived in, but it is the same house his parents lived in
 and I have both an old photo of the house way back when and then a new

Hanford.

His father Raymond Perry  ( Frank Ray Perry) was also a singer and radio
station operator in Hanford. He was born in Massachusetts in 1919 to Frank
Perry and Lena S.

 Grandparents were John and Georgiana Perry who were already married when
they arrived in Massachucetts in 1890 according to the 1900 census. I do
not know which island

John and Georgiana Perry, Frank and Lena Perry all lived in the Hanford

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Tom Hanks, Portuguese ancestry

Antonio,

His Frager family, originally Gonsalves Fraga comes from Ponta Delgada,
Flores.

The immigrant ancestor, Francisco Gonsalves Fraga. B 1848 arrived in
California

 in 1864. He was married in San Leandro in 1869 to Barbara Enos, also of
Flores

Francisco and his sons were cattle ranchers in the Sunol area before moving
to

Pleasanton. Tom would be fourth generation in California

 Nancy,

 When I first saw your email I thought, at last someone who knows about
 Joseph Victorino (Vitorino Jose)! But I guess it was a different one. From
 what I could find the one I am looking for was born Feb 25, 1832 in
 Angústias, Horta, Faial, Azores. His father was Vitorino Jose dos Reis and
 mother was Mariana Luisa Candida. He did settle in New Bedford. But my
 relatives say it was New Bedford, New Jersey. I haven't verified that yet.
 He supposedly came over to America with his older brother, Antonio
 Victorino in 1859.

Nancy,

Jose I Victorino did make it onboard the Paladin for that sailing. he is
found on this page from the Ancestry Massachucetts Passenger lists

goog_378601891
http://interactive.ancestry.com/8745/MAM277_90-0201/4273266?backurl=http%3a%2f%2fsearch.ancestry.com%2fcgi-bin%2fsse.dll%3fgst%3d-6ssrc=backlabel=ReturnSearchResults

There is no date on the manifest, but Ancestry has it as 13 Aug 1883.

He is listed as Jose I Victorino, 21 yrs old.  He is just below Francisca J
de Bettencourt. On the Horta passport, she is at line 561.

You can also see on the arrival list, Francisco I Pimentel that matches the
Francisco Ignacio Pimentel at line 572 of the Horta list

   Barbara,

 In America, the Customs Passenger Lists cover the period from about
 1820-1890 (Immigration Passenger Lists cover the period from about
 1890-1954).

 In Michael Tepper's American Passenger Arrival Records, at the end of
 the chapter titled Customs Passenger Lists (it's Chapter 3 in my book,
 published 1993), it lists the ports and years covered, as well was what
 exists and what's missing.  For example, it says that Boston has copies or
 abstracts covering 22 Sep 1820- 31 Mar 1874 (gaps) M277.  M277 is the
 National Archive roll number.  That film is indexed in M334.  It also
 mentions that 1848-1891 (State Lists) are indexed in M265.  Other east
 coast ports (up in New England) are Baltimore, MD; Bristol  Warren, RI;
 Edgartown, MA; Fall River, MA; Nantucket, MA; New Bedford, MA; New Haven,
 CT; Newport, RI; New York, NY (this is Castle Garden; Ellis Island was NOT
 in existence); and Providence, RI.  You'll have to go to your public
 library to check for the details on these ports.

 You can search Castle Garden: http://www.castlegarden.org/
 I also googled: ships 1859 and came up with this.  Don't know how good it
 is though.
 http://www.olivetreegenealogy.com/ships/tousa1854-1860.shtml

 You can search Ancestry too.  I don't believe they have every port
 though.  If you don't have a subscription, your local public library or FHC
 has a subscription.

 As I understand it, Boaventura is a more common given name because it is
 the name of a saint, and those with this name often go by Ventura.  My
 wife's mother and grandmother knew him as Ventura, but I believe they
 mistakenly thought it was short for Boaventura so that is why I was told it
 was Boaventura.  Finding his baptism proved otherwise.  She said they used
 to joke that my great grandparents, Ventura and Felicidade de Mello were
 named good fortune and happiness (boa ventura e felicidade) even though
 they never quite found either.   My wife's family knew my great

 Below is a link for Horta passports from August of 1865. The last entry
 (numbered 33) for Catharina da Conceicao is possibly my 3rd
 great-grandmother who married in New Bedford, Massachusetts in December of
 1865. From what I know about this ancestor, she was from Pico, she was
 known as Catherine Brum or Catarina da Conceicao, and she was born around
 1835-1840. All of this is consistent with this Catharina da Conceicao
 passport entry.

 I would appreciate assistance in deciphering the village of which this
 Catharina is a native. I can see that she's from Pico, concelho of Lajes,
 but am unsure of what to make of the freguesia. It looks like Silveira to
 me, but knowing that is not the name of any frequesia in Lajes I do not
 know if this is an old name for a village or if I'm just misreading. I'm
 excited to find out if this is my 3rd great-grandmother and finding out
 what village she's from will definitely help in verifying this.

Eric Edgar

On Tue, Oct 7, 2014 at 5:10 PM, linda menesesli...@gmail.com wrote:

 Hi Everyone,

 My name is Linda, and all my antecedents are from the Azores.  I've always
 had an interest in my family history, and I had thought that someday it
 would be fun to tackle the project of expanding my family tree.  About two
 months ago while I was idly googling this and that, I discovered that the
 Islands' parish records are now online.  I found my grandparents' baptismal
 records, and that was it-- I was completely hooked on chasing down the rest
 of the family as far back as I can.

 It's been great fun.  I read a little Portuguese, enjoy history and
 puzzles, and have a research background, so the learning curve hasn't been
 too bad-- though I'm certainly finding that deciphering the handwriting on
 some records can be challenging to say the least!

 I knew that my family migrated to California from Terceira (Villa de Praia
 and Santa Barbara) and Flores (Santa Cruz and Cedros mainly), but I was
 surprised to discover that Santa Maria figures prominently in my family
 history too.  It looks like I also have a connection to Faial though I
 haven't pursued it yet.

 So far, I've done a little of the Villa de Praia line (back to about 1800)
 and most of the Cedros line (though with gaps).

 At the moment, I'm concentrating on Santa Maria and have got back to circa
 1710, mostly via the marriage records.  I'm currently working on the
 records from the Matriz de NS de Assuncao, and then will tackle Sao Pedro
 and Santo Espirito.   So far, this branch of my family is packed full of
 Resendes, with a few Curvelos, an Almada, a Cabral and a couple of
 Figueiredos and Souzas.

 Finally, a huge thank you to everyone in this group.  I've been reading
 old posts, and the information they contain has been extremely helpful.  I
 really wish I'd known about the Flores marriage book before trying to slog
 through the Cedros records (agh!), but it will certainly be useful when I
 return to working on the relations from that island.  I've also read the
 posts on software recommendations, and I appreciate all the various points
 that were suggested for consideration.   At the moment, I'm working with
 paper and pencil, but I definitely see the need for a database.  Trying out
 a couple of the programs is one of my next priorities.

 I expect that I will be asking for help with decipherment and nuance.  As
 my skills improve, I hope I'll be able to contribute back to the group too,

 for now, back to reading baptisms,

 Linda

 I think Claudia died young as no other records are found for her, and that
the mother is the same, that Maria Coelha and the Cura Domingo Bernardo had

 other places could be included, like Sao Miguel where I suspect you saw it.

 I'm not arguing one way or another about Joao's ancestral line. That takes
 in-depth study which he has done. But it certainly was a fact freed slaves
 were married to other regular citizens in the community. In fact, I have an
 ancestor from Sao Bento, Terceira whose son or daughter married the child
 of a slave. This was about 1700, if I recall.

 I just want to say that I have seen a marriage of a slave to a free
 person. I can't remember what village I was searching when I saw it, but it
 was possibly Ginetes. I just remember because I had never seen that before.
 Maybe the priest in your case was progressive or anti-slavery so he did not
 mention race or status of the women.

 Hi Anthony,

 I can't speak for every place in the Azores but I can speak to you about
 the use of alcunhas in Lajes do Pico. My father frequently talks about
 people from the old country he lived there until his early 30's and
 usually  refers  them by their alcunha seldom by their surname most
 families were known by an alcunha and they were usually passed down along
 the paternal line just like a surname in the United States, surnames
 however were inconsistently passed down. Surnames are even today seldom
 used in everyday conversation I suspect due to so many people sharing
 common surnames.

  If you walked into a village and asked for Manuel Cardoso most people
 wouldn't have any idea who you were talking about even though that may be
 that person's official surname, But if you asked for Manuel Melao(Melon) or
 Manuel Pombo(Pigeon) someone would figure out who you were talking about.
 Interestingly those are actual alcunhas for two different Cardoso lines.

 I've looked at the information from the  Rol dos Confesados for 1883(This
 information was collected by the parish priest and documents all those of
 age to confess by household) and found some interesting alcunhas for some
 of mine and my wife's line's. Some I am able to translate,  two are also
 used as surnames by some families Bonito(Handsome) and Craveiro others I
 found are Touro(Bull), Toucinho(bacon), Caipiras(Countrified, the American
 version I think would be Redneck), Zarigo, Burrinha(Donkey), Carocha(Bug),
 Zidro, Pe de Galinha(Chicken Foot, very interesting!)

 I have also noticed that some of my lines didn't have alcunhas recorded
 for some reason especially the one's that owned more property.

 I'm curious if anyone else would care to share their families alcunhas.

 I've been searching through various guides about Portuguese naming

 My mother-in-law is a Parreira, but she has mentioned that it is common
 for families to have nicknames. For example, someone by the name of Antonio
 Parreira may be known as a 'Galante' yet the surname 'Galante' is no where
 to be found. Other nicknames I've come across are what appear to be
 'rrabola' and 'Ilhars'.

 Does anyone have an explanation for this?

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] From Italy to Portugal - Death Record Info

2014-09-18 Thread luiznoia .
I work with Italian records often, to provide background to citizenship
application.

If you are looking at 4th great grandfather's time period, I'd guess early
1800s?

Trieste was not part of Italy until after 1918 when it was taken from the
Austro-Hungarian Empire , where it was the main seaport and fourth largest
city.

It has passed in and out of Yugoslavia and Slovenian control

I have not found any source for records from earlier than 1918 Italian .
There are some indexes of church records called Kirchen-buch in German, but
no parish books

like we are blessed with in Portuguese research.

It's currently in the province of Friuli-Venizia-Giulia

 Familysearch.org has a lot of Italian records online, these are the FHC

 not indexed for easy searching, you have to go through the film, but many
 times individual books have indices in front.  I found it easy to find
 people.  If you know the region and town and the approximate date, look and
 see what they have.  The records are generally civil records, on a printed
 form that was then filled in with the information.  Not so hard to read
 once you get the format. My understanding is that the law required civil
 registration of all births, marriages, and deaths (Thanks to Napoleon), so
 these records are a good source.

E,

Your text of the message is very small, need to rest it.

Trieste was not part of Italy until its annexation following  the First
World War. It was the Mediterranian seaport of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
 If church records can be found from that era, they will most likely be in
German

Steve,

Sorry, the Anthony Sears stuff was for another Steve. Unless I click the
name on the message it only shows you with first name.


You said in a previous message that you are assuming that your great
grandmother Filomena b. 1851 is attached to the Jose Thomas Carneiro
family, and this is all built off that.

I'm proposing that this Filomena Carneiro may actually be the one your
looking for.

 Eric,

 I know you're scrupulous, but I just want to be sure about the death
 identities for the following reasons:

 These two deaths are a major find because it means my great
 grandmother, Filomena b. 1851, cannot be their daughter, yet I have
 constructed my descendants around this assumption. (Talk about shaking a
 big tree).

 That is, they can't be her parents since José Tomás Pimentel Carneiro
 died on ? Jun 1844 and his wife Isabel de Jesus (Isabel Tomásia) died 16
 Apr 1850.

 Indeed, my family records have always disagreed with this parentage
 (plus I've never been able to find Filomena's baptism record). I had been
 persuaded by other genealogical sources when I first started in 2012.

 Now eliminating Jose and Isabel as Filomena's parents fits with a
 revised scenario since I'm somewhat confident that I have found Filomena's
 real parents recently.

 However, I found no records in which Isabel de Jesus is listed as
 Isabel Thomasia. I found three children for her as Isabel de Jesus:

 Maria (Maria Isabel Carneiro Thomas)
 b. 9? Nov 1833  Santa Cruz das Flores, Flores
 d. 3 Oct 1927  Contra Costa County, California

 this case, you can tell the designers what you don't like about their

 Our beta test was completed by people with both computer and genealogy
 experience, then we released the Family Tree to about 10% of our most
 regular users for further testing.  Sometimes all of the best planning and
 testing still does not catch all of the problems, unfortunately.

 We are getting much of the same feedback regarding names and sizing of the

 problem is that the women with the given name and a religious name was not
 showing on the main page. I went it and put the Sao Joao or de Jesus in

 Yes, your mom doesn't show as a link because you ended with her on that

 I had my mom's DNA kit listed as H. Louise.  In my Gedcom, she is Helen
 Louise.  That is why it wouldn't link her.  I had to change it.  So if have
 Joe Mello and you have him as Jose de Melo, with the same birth and
 everything, it may not show the link.  Altino's my dad's 2nd cousin, but I
 have the surname as Mello and I think he has it as Demelo, so it won't show
 Altino as a link.  This is a problem.  Ugh.

 Eric,

 I know you're scrupulous, but I just want to be sure about the death
 identities for the following reasons:

 These two deaths are a major find because it means my great grandmother,
 Filomena b. 1851, cannot be their daughter, yet I have constructed my
 descendants around this assumption. (Talk about shaking a big tree).

 That is, they can't be her parents since José Tomás Pimentel Carneiro
 died on ? Jun 1844 and his wife Isabel de Jesus (Isabel Tomásia) died 16
 Apr 1850.

 Indeed, my family records have always disagreed with this parentage (plus
 I've never been able to find Filomena's baptism record). I had been
 persuaded by other genealogical sources when I first started in 2012.

 Now eliminating Jose and Isabel as Filomena's parents fits with a revised
 scenario since I'm somewhat confident that I have found Filomena's real
 parents recently.

 However, I found no records in which Isabel de Jesus is listed as Isabel
 Thomasia. I found three children for her as Isabel de Jesus:

 Maria (Maria Isabel Carneiro Thomas)
 b. 9? Nov 1833  Santa Cruz das Flores, Flores
 d. 3 Oct 1927  Contra Costa County, California

 very interesting blog post
 http://excavatedshellac.com/category/azores/ about 78 RPM recordings
 of Azorean folk music made in Oakland, CA in the 1940s by an Anthony

 to see how music researchers work much the same way as genealogy
 researchers, but also because there is a chance that someone on this list
 will be related to this Antonio Soares and might have more info about his
 recording business. At the end of the article there's a link for A

The Joseph Sofrino in Boston states he is from Faial on his childs marriage

 To: Azores Genealogy azores@googlegroups.com

 I'm looking for the origin of this family on Graciosa.

 Manuel Souza Safreno ( or Manuel Silva Safreno) arrived 1893 or 1895
 married Mary Regello around 1905. They lived in Contra Costa and Alameda
 counties.

 This name has come up before in the group. as a Zafreno  and as a draft
 card for a Safreno Melo Frates in Oakland

 I feel this may be an alcunha. I know from Spanish that   sofrenar is a
 verb : to restrain, repress, reprimand or curb.  so yo ( eu)  sofreno


 There is a large family in Boston Massachucetts descending from Joseph
 Sofrine a lobsterman b. 1848 Faial arriving 1878 and

  Manuel Sofrine b 1863  Mass.

 A 1922 Diario de Noticias article shows a M Sofrine in an East Boston
 social group. Some trees show that family from Terceira

 Those people found on the 1900 census Boston do not match with the:

  *8 July 1895 ship list for the Trindad that arrived in New York from
 Hamilton, Bermuda. *

 Manuel Sofrina 48 yrs

 Mrs Manuel Sofrina 40 yrs

 Mary 6yrs

 Manuel 3yrs

 Almena 1 yr,

 That family hasn't been found again census records.

 I've looked though all the fregusias baptism records from Graciosa around
 the 17 May 1876 birthdate shown without success.

 The family visited Santa Cruz , Graciosa back in the 80s and were shown a
 tavern that this Manuel Sofreno's mother was said to own.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Have you uploaded your DNA results to GEDMatch.com?

2014-08-15 Thread luiznoia .
I've run my data through 6 different studies of Ethnic makeup. They
consistently gave the same general porportions, which is reassuring, but
within each general ethnic group, seemed to vary in content

For example for the African markers, most studies uniformly gave Sub
Saharan African, split between West  and East Africa.  One study showed
tribal association of Omotic ( southern Ethiopia) and Mbuti-pygmy ( west
equatorial)

One study showed that it was mostly Northern African with some Western.
Another showed twice as much Eastern as Western.

It's all in how large and varied a population used for each model is in the
studies.

 It is interesting to see everyone's experiences with GEDMatch.  I'm trying
 to encourage the researchers on the Portuguese Hawaiian Group on Facebook
 to upload their data so that more Portuguese researchers will be included.

 I have several estimated 4th generation matches.  I've started emailing
 people today.  If they are on my Azorean or French lines I should be able
 to figure it out.  If it's the Britsh, Welsh, or Irish lines, I have much
 work to be done.  I am almost hoping the other research has done more work
 than me so we can bridge the gap.  I did make one positive connection on my
 de Braga line.  I'm waiting for that person to email me back.

 I do wish the GEDCOMs were linked to the match entries.  It would be
 easier.  My surname searches don't seem to pull up anyone that is in my
 list.

 I'm having fun with the admixture stuff.  It it interesting to compare the
 different break downs.  The Eurogenes 36 seemed to be the most descriptive.

 I'm finding it's better to play with this after 10pm as it can be really
 slow in the day time.

 I still have a lot to learn about DNA research and interpreting my
 results.

The full name of city when founded :

El Pueblo de Nuestra Señora la Reina de los Ángeles del Río de
Porciúncula or The Town of Our Lady the Queen of Angels of the
Porciúncula River

The origin of the name Porciuncula: Porziuncola, also called Portiuncula
(in Latin) or Porzioncula, is a small church located within the Basilica of
Santa Maria degli Angeli in the frazione of Santa Maria degli Angeli,
situated about 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) from Assisi, Umbria (central Italy)

 It is the place from where the Franciscan movement started

Bob,

I'm saying you should help yourself by pulling out all that you can,
identify what you don't understand and ask for help on those. That's how
most of us here became proficient at it.

This is a mutual help community, not a service. I've already spent a good
12 hours on our shared Flores families. I don't often do any professional
work for Azores families.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Looking for Fernandes Baleeiro (Surname unknown)

I'm thinking it's likely a Jose or Joao etc, Fernandes, Baleeiro.

His alcunha or even occupation as a whaler.

You can find the Baleerio in Bahia records, but not until the 1890s.

Maybe some background on where the information came from would help here.

 Hello Albert,

 Fernandes is a surname. Maybe his name was Fernando?

 Or maybe you are missing his given name and Fernandes Baleeiro is the
 compound surname.

 Your information about him coming from Graciosa matches what I know about
 people named Baleeiro. They are found elsewhere in small numbers, so can
 easily be found passing through Faial, Pico Terceira, Sao Jorge, etc.

 No need to travel to Faial for research when they put those records online
 this past year or so.
 The government site is called CCA and it's quoted all the time, nearly
 every day on this list. Look through past messages for the URL.

 Unfortunately, your lack of more information is a huge barrier to making
 further progress. I don't know this person. It seems to me you will have to
 find him in Bahia records to learn who he married, and most of all the
 names of his parents. Then you work back in time from there.

 Dear all,

 We are trying to find some information on a man named Fernandes Baleeiro
 from Faial and Graciosa. As far as we know, he emigrated from Faial to
 Bahia (Brazil) in 1726.

 I'm aware that the information is scarce, but perhaps you could gide us on
 how to begin or where could we try to ask or search before going directly
 to Faial and spend som,e days there.

 Thank you in advance.

 Hi Marilyn,

 I'm still learning about it, too, but know enough to explain it.

 Basically, you get your autosomal test done, which you did, and download
 the files for each of your kits.
 Then you go to the gedmatch.com website and create an account.
 Right away you upload these files which contain the raw data and right
 away you can start looking at all the various ways to view your ethnic
 identity, plus you can compare right away your results to another person or
 to your own kits you administer.

 Once enough time has allowed them to process your uploaded data, such as
 two days, then you can compare your test kit results to everyone else in
 their database. You no longer need to know in advance their kit numbers. It
 just searches and finds the results for you.

 But studying and digesting these results is what I'm just getting into
 more now. Interpreting the data comes with practice. For instance, Antonio
 Faria has been comparing his results with amazing conclusions that I am
 still trying to figure out for myself.

 So it's very simple to do, but then you have to play around with it to get
 the most out of it.

 I had a female cousin who married in the 1980s at the age of 15 (with
 parental consent).  There's a whole story behind that!

 Research wise, I think the youngest female I have found was my mother's
 grandma.  She was 14 at marriage in 1893 and 15 when her first child was
 born.  I can't remember any males younger that 18.  This is in American
 research however.

 the basic information is posted such as Name, birth date and place, and
 death date and place. That is not much information but it is enough to find
 a common match. The other thing people are reluctant to display is any

 anyone that knows how to use the inter net can find that information if

 Nicole R,

 You can find ALL the kids of a particular couple (the kids' baptisms and
 marriage).  It will strengthen your reading of the records.  It will also
 build your database so when you get a DNA match, you'll have a starting
 point to connect your DNA match to.

 You didn't mention a place for your ancestors, but at the bottom you
 mention Achada and Santana.  Achada has some of the worst records on Sao
 Miguel.  I think the only records worse than part of Achada is Santa Maria
 island.

 There is a partial index for Achada marriages.  It starts at the beginning
 (1680s) and goes to about 1730s if I remember correctly.  I have a copy and
 I typed it up in Excel.  Once you get to that time period and you're still
 in Achada (start hoping they came from somewhere else), send me an email
 and I'll send you the Excel file.

 It's going to be a bit of a struggle.  I think I found an ancestor about
 the 1820s in Achada and most of her ancestors were from there.  It was
 hard.  I had to ask a lot of people to verify what I was reading.  On the
 plus side, if you can read the stuff coming out of Achada, you'll be able
 to read anything.

 I know this isn't what you wanted to hear.  I know of no other sources for
 Achada.

 Someone asked a question about this, but I can't find the post.  I
 researched this extensively when I wrote my research guide (an ebook) on
 Portuguese immigration to Hawaii during the sugar plantation era.

 A Hawaiian sugar plantation owner would fill out an order for labor, much
 like they would supplies.  In Pau Hana, it gives a list that looks
 something like
 10 boxes of nails
 10 bags of flour
 50 boards
 10 Portuguese
 5 Filipinos
 3 Japanese

 Yes, they wrote out the nationality of the laborers they wanted and how
 many right on their supply list.

 In the Azores or Madeira, the person (or couple, married women signed
 contracts too) met with the agents from Hawaii.  They signed their
 contract.  They applied for a passport and arrangements were made for
 passage.

 All Portuguese who came over was processed through the Portuguese
 Consulate in Honolulu.  It was at this time that they learned what sugar
 plantation they would be sent to.  I am not sure if they had much say in
 the matter, for instance, if they already had family working on a
 plantation on one island.  I don't think so.  My feeling is after they
 finished their contract, they would move.  But, they did not split up
 husbands, wives, and their children (children also worked in the fields at
 certains times of the year).  Remember that the clever American businessmen
 were trying to populate the islands with what they saw as suitable
 immigrants (meaning, not Asian), so bringing over whole families was
 encouraged.

 The Portuguese Consulate records are probably the most overlooked records
 available for Hawaii researchers.  I think they are called Portuguese
 Consulado General em Hawaii (or something very similar).  The LDS Church
 has microfilmed the entire collection.  Why they don't give much details
 (early entries only have names and dates), they tell you who in the family
 group actually set foot in Hawaii.  This could be important to people
 trying to prove if a family member died aboard the ship or if babies were
 born on the ship.

 The contract itself has very little information.  However, when a person
 completed their contract, the plantation manager made a note at the bottom
 with the name of the plantation and the date the contract was completed.
 They also signed it.  It is a shame that their was no effort to preserve
 these records.  They would answer that all important question of which
 sugar plantation did my ancestor live and work on.  I have copies of
 Jozimas and Maria de Braga's contracts because Jozimas saved them and then
 someone had sense to pass them down through the line until they got to my
 cousin.  And, luckily, she is researching the family tree and saw how
 important they are.

 Hi Edna

 Piedade is a freguesia on the island of Pico that is where my one ancestor

 Sao Jorge I have met several people from Calheta Sao Jorge with the surname
 Borba If you look on NEPS for Ribeira Seca Sao Jorge you will see several
 examples of Borba's in the 1800's but not on Pico. It is possible Joseph
 Coreia Borba was born on Pico but my hunch is his line traces to Sao Jorge
 and in Calheta you will find various Borba lines. I also remember hearing
 old timers talk about when it was required to have a passport to travel
 between Pico and Sao Jorge but not so between Pico and Faial my
 understanding travel was somewhat closely watched between islands for a
 period of time and not really encouraged. Perhaps someone more

This link is of interest because you had Piedade, Pico as a possible origin
for this family. The link for Seraphim here doesn't seem to relate to the
Borba line, but does show that the mother Jacintha Rosa

is from Piedade, Pico

  I took a search through the Portuguese newspaper database and found a  a
 Uniao Portuguesa,  1898 obit listed for a Maria , daughter of Manuel Correa
 de Borba and Maria Candias of Boeiro, Sao Jorge. This is a small village
 around

 Topo.

  I followed the John C Borba to his death listing: *BORBA   JOHN   C
 1879   10   18   TEXEIRA  MALE   RE   SANTA CLARA   1962   07   14

 I went to the CCA site for Topo baptisms :

 This is for :* Joao born 18 Oct 1879 and baptized 1 Nov 1879,  legitimate
 son of Manuel Correa de Borba and Maria Candidais , paternos Alexandre
 Correa and Maria Isabel...*

 *.maternos, Antonio Ignacio Texeira and Rozalina Candida*



 An exact match on birthdate and on mother's and father's surnames. The
 Borba will likely turn up as the family of Maria Isabel

 I think this is the origin and it's a matter of poking around the Topo
 baptisms to find Joseph's record.

 I think I've found a brother or cousin to help on searching Joseph's
 origin.

 The Siskiyou county marriage book shows John Borba marries Evalina Bell
 next to Joseph and Emiliy's entry

 The WW1 draft shows he is John C Borba , Evelina as wife.

 The 1910 census for Yreka shows him as John C Barber, and that he
 arrived in 1891, the same year that Joseph lists as his arrival

 I have come across a confusion with Pico as an origin a few times now.

 Although the census show Pico, and the family lore says from Pico, it
 has turned out to be Pico da Pedra in Ribeira Grande , Sao Miguel.

 Antonio, I am wondering if the family records could mean Piedade
 rather than Pico?   My Lemos family is from Sao Jorge.  I have just 
 started
 looking at this Borba line so really just posted my note to see if someone
 else may have something that might help me.;)  Thanks for your input.

 Hi Cheri

 That is a surname very rarely found on Pico I have one in one of my
 line's in the early 1700's from Piedade it is found much more frequently 
 in
 Sao Jorge.

 Repost for Edna Lemos Epps,dave-edna at comcast.net

 I don't suppose anyone has a connection with a Joseph Coreia Borba
 dob 7-7-1875 in Pico?  I don't know village.  He came to USA in 1891 and
 settled in Northern California, Yreka or Hawkinsville area in Siskiyou,
 County.  He married a Emilia Rose Lemos there in 1910.  Emilia is a 
 sister
 to my Grandfather George Lemos.  Just curious as I see the Borba name on
 here.
