RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Topic: da Costa, de Sousa Domingos, dos Santos
Hi Yvonne, Disregard the other information I sent you. That is the wrong family. Looking at the Passport record I read the following: 23 Nov 1906 Manuel Joaquim de Costa age 56 Son of Jose Joaquim de Costa and Rosa Caetana Maria dos Santos age 56 daughter of Manuel (Vieira?) (Gi?) and Rosa do Espirito Santo. Idelina age 19 Lepoldina age 16 And looking at the last line it appears this person is traveling with them Manuel Ferreira age 10 son of Manuel (Rego?) and Julia dos Santos. I have a Manuel son of Jose Joaquim de Costa and Rosa Caetana born in Ribeirinha on 1 Oct 1850 but no marriage record for him (Which means he may have married after 1883) I am still looking for Maria dos Santos. I am going to have to search the records for births in 1850 for her. May be some one else on the list can look at this CCA record and get a better read on the names of the parents of Maria dos Santos.

Thank you for checking it out for me. I really appreciate it. hat is the FHC? I'm new at all of this. This name thing must create nightmares. I wonder why they opt to change their name so much. For all we know, then the name Angelina could be wrong, no? At any rate, I went back to the CCA site and tried to imagine the names you found printed on the passaportes list, but I'm not sure. I'm attaching it for you to take a look at if you don't mind. Here is the link as well: http://pg.azores.gov.pt/drac/cca/biblioteca_digital/PPDL1906-1907/PPDL19 06-1907_item1/P34.html I guess your idea to write to Ponta Delgada for copies is a logical next step. Do I need to request this in Portuguese? I don't think I speak enough to do that, but I can ask a few friends who do. The problem is that I only have a full date for one of the sisters (Adelina or Idalina). She was born April 18, 1887. I have Marianna as born in 1885 and Leopoldina born in 1891. As for the archives in Ponta Delgada, would they have a record of my grandfather-in-law's birth record as well? I happen to have a birth date for him (July 6, 1881).

This Manuel Joaquim de Costa was born before 22 Jan 1856 (Based on age given on marriage record) you said your Manuel Joaquim was born about 1855. As far as the name Maria dos Santos and Maria Julia Arruda, I have found that woman seem to have their names recorded in more different ways than men and most of the time only the first name remains the same over the course of years. My 2d great grandmother was known at different times in her life as Rita dos Santos, Rita de Jesus, Rita da Conceicao, Rita de Sousa, and Rita de Pimentel. So what needs to be done is to find a record that names one of their children (Lipordinha, Mariana or Aldina) and names them. I took a quick look at the FHC this past Thursday to see if I could find anything and The Baptism records for 1881 in Santissimo Salvador are not on the microfilm but I did look at 1880 and 1882-83 which is all I have access to I did find the birth of a child Angelina baptized on 1 Jan 1880. The parents names are the same as I previously reported. This may require a request to the Archives in Ponta Delgada for a copy of the birth record of Lipordinha if you know her birth date. Where on the CCA site did you find the passports?

[AZORES-Genealogy] RE: Cape Verdean Ancestry and the Azores
Hello Hardrick, I am forwarding this to the Azores list as there are several researchers that have done more research in Vila Franca than I have. You can join the Azores group by going to this link: http://groups.google.com/group/Azores As far as where to look next: I would suggest the Dartmouth Family History Center in Dartmouth (It is not far off I-195) George Pacheco who is on this list works there and they have Microfilm of all the church records from the Acores. The family history centers are run by the LDS and use of them is free. You only pay for making copies and a small fee if you have to order a film from Salt Lake City I realize that Clinton is hour+ drive to Dartmouth but I only suggest it because they already have the films there.

I am assisting my wife in tracing/researching her Cape Verdean Ancestry. For years she assumed her family immigrated to Falmouth, Massachusetts directly from Cape Verde only to recently learn they immigrated from Sao Miguel, Azores. The surname for her family is Andrade (Andrada in one Census and Andrade with an accent on a Death Certificate). Her father was born in Massachusetts but her grandfather, great grandfather and great great grandfathers (all named Manuel Andrade) were born in Sao Miguel. We suspect it was the previous generation that immigrated from Cape Verde to the Azores. The information we have was determined from U.S. Death Certificates which provide the information of the mother and father of her ancestors. Our trail has temporarily ended with the birth of her Great Grandfather at St. Michael, Azores in 1872. He died in East Falmouth, Massachusetts on December For example, her Great Grandfather was Manuel Andrade born in 1872 at Villa Franca, Azores His Father was: Manuel Andrade born at Villa Franca, Azores His Mother: Mary Santos born at Villa Franca, Azores His wife, My wife's Great Grandmother was Mary Michael born in 1883 at St. Michael, Azores and died at East Falmouth, MA in 1956 Her Father was (first name unknown) Last name: Michael unknown DOB born at St .

Yes, at first glance it looks like Francisco but there is writing over the name so I don't think it's him. I have been through all the AdP records in this time frame looking for a Manuel, born to these parents. What I know about him is that he was first married in 1820, and when he had my great-great-great grandmother, it was 1853. So I know he was an adult by 1820 but not elderly in 1853; that is why I'm certain he was born around 1800. I've searched from 1790 to 1805 (with other sources saying he was born in Agua do Pau) and this record is the best fit. I'm hoping someone else can look and see if they think this really is for a Manuel. 2) The baby's maternal grandmother's name is one I am not familiar with, but maybe I'm reading it wrong? I'm seeing Jezceta or Jezeta Pacheca? Jezeka maybe (I know k was not used in Portuguese)? -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Noia family from Vila Franca do Campo - ilha de São Miguel
Manoel, Perhaps I can answer that. Linda’s great grandfather was Marianno Furtado and was from Ribeira Grande. We have search and have found but have not verified a Marianno born 29 Mar 1868 in Ribeirinha the son of Francisco Pimentel and Maria da Conciecao (Furtado). This Marianno is the brother of my Great Grandfather who went by the name Francisco Pimentel Furtado. We are guessing that if this Linda’s Marianno then on the information she has the Pimentel was dropped and he simply went by Marianno Furtado. We have been searching for his marriage but it was after 1883 and the records are not on film, so until the archives are searched we simply do not know for sure who the parents of Marianno Furtado are. I just in the last week have found another Marianno in Ribeirinha and have not told Linda but he was born 14 Feb 1857 the son of Jose Furtado and Rosa de Jesus. This Marianno would be the younger brother of Maria da Conciecao who married Francisco Pimentel. In either case the most likely age wise is the Marianno born 29 Mar 1868. So if either of these Marianno’s is Linda’s then we are related with a common ancestor of Joao Furtado and Elena Rosa.

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Update: Family Tree DNA's Sizzling Summer Sale Now Extended!
Hi Nancy, Every one caries the Mt-DNA from their mother but only daughters can pass it on. Your Uncle carries the MT-DNA from his mother (Your Grandmother). You can test him for MT- DNA only. Any MT-DNA test will be fine, there are no special tests for male for female testing of MT-DNA it is the same test. I do not think the MT-DNA test is on sale but the web site says it is $149 for the MT-DNA plus test (tests HVR1 HVR2).

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Sometimes you get lucky
Nice work Celeste.

I met Mary last Saturday while going on a walk in Hayward, CA that focused on the Portuguese that lived here during the 1800-early 1900's. Of course, one comment led to another and she told me she would like to find information about her paternal grandfather. She told me his name, Joseph Rodrigues Costa and said she thought he was born in Pico. His wife's name was Lucy Maciel. I had to leave the walk early and did not speak to her again. On Monday, I tracked her down and we spent a little time (she was at work) trying to find her grandfather on the Pico website. No luck. Since Mary was very new to research, Tuesday, I stopped by and gave her the outline for a time-line that I use when gathering information about someone. I asked Mary if it was possible that her grandfather had been a member of one of the Portuguese Fraternal societies. She responded, like the UPPEC? I explained that the UPPEC was originally for women so he would not have been a member of that organization/lodge. When I arrived home, I thought about the possibility that not Joseph but Lucy may have been a member of the UPPEC. I looked her up in the death records and BINGO, not only was she there, (of course born in Portugal,) however, her parents names were listed and also her date of birth. I took the chance that Lucy may have been born on the island of Pico. Back to the Pico website: Not only did I find her and 8 generations of her mother's ancestors; 7 generations of her father's ancestors AND her husband, (they were married in Pico) Jose Rodrigues da Costa's 7 generations of ancestors. The point of all of this is that sometimes, the planets are all lined up; the moon is in the right place, and you just get so lucky it gives you the courage to keep looking when you hit brick walls.

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Name Spelling Standardization
Hi Jesse, It would depend on what you want to do with the data base. If I were doing a tree to show my family then I use actual names as they were spelled at the time. If I were doing a searchable data base (which I am) then I standardize spelling with some exceptions. A good example is the one you give I treat Helena and Elena separately but others like Mello and Melo are all spelled Mello.

Do these spellings reflect the priest who wrote the records or how the people in question actually wanted their name spelled?

[AZORES-Genealogy] Twins
Hi All Just a general discussion but has any study been done on the frequency of twins in the Acores? In my own lines in the past 50 years I can come up with three sets of twins. In my research in the parish of Santissimo Salvador (1836-1883) there seems to be a couple sets of twins born each year. I have not counted up the exact number but the frequency seems to be much greater than the general population. I remember seeing a program a few months ago about a village in Brazil where there seemed to be an unusually high number of twins. The conclusion of the program was that it was genetic.

Hi Nancy, My condolences on the loss of your most loved mother. It is a joyful thought to know she died with Jesus in her heart and is now with the saints in heaven. As a choir member I frequently sing at funerals and we are sometimes given a list of what hymns to sing as requested by the family. Occasionally we get a list requested by the deceased.

While he had had ups and downs over the last year with breathing problems, it was completely unexpected. He went into the hospital for his emphysema, was about to be released, then the next day he began showing different symptoms. It turned out that his colon was bad. He died 3 days after emergency surgery. My Dad and I were very close. When I couldn't work anymore he allowed me to live in his house without question. As he aged, I began taking over control of the household and then his medical needs. When he was put on oxygen last year, I helped him learn the equipment and remembered the things that were too much for him to deal with. I am not with the program right now. I am sort of checking the group and the IslandRoutes (Portuguese Hawaiian google group).

She is 92 and lives alone (with the help of a lady who comes in for a few hours daily). Mom thought someone had done something (to put it charitably) with one of her jewelry boxes. After searching around a little I located the missing box and we looked over the contents and she decided that everything was there. We both decided that it wasn't the monetary value of the items so much as the sentimental value that would have been the loss if they had turned up missing. (Not to mention the thought that someone might have taken them.) We were very happy that all was well, but this prompted her to have me go through her trunk of old stuff. This is of note for this group-- you'll see! We found my grandmother's wedding dress that had been cut up and used to make Mom's first communion dress. (My grandmother is the one whose parents were from the Azores.) Also, my grandmother had kept HER mother's purse just as it was the day she died. Great grandmother was the one from the Azores. She had died suddenly from a heart attach just days after my mom's wedding--in fact Mom and Dad had come back early from their honeymoon because of this. The purse contained a gold compact of rouge, a pocket knife, a sweepstakes ticket and, in the bottom, grains of rice from the wedding. We have retained the tradition in our family of keeping the purse or wallet of someone who died. It is a glimpse into their personality for future generations. I never knew my great grandmother but feel closer to her by seeing what she kept in her purse. The prize of the day, however, was the photo album. I could remember seeing an album of studio portraits Portuguese people (presumably relatives or friends) but had not seen it since becoming interested in my Azorean roots. Here were labeled pictures of cousins that I had recently tracked down on the census! Mom gave me the album for safe keeping and research. Now I can compare the picture of my great grandmother's sister with unlabeled pictures in another photo album! I thought I would never know what these family members looked like! Mom and I both had a wonderful Mothers Day! Happy hunting all... Mary Bordi -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.

Honestly, the *EASIEST* way to do this is to first try to get your hand on the ship's manifest for your Grandfather. Ancestry.com has a search function that helps to narrow manifests down by name to make them easier to spot. Once you get a hold of that, life becomes much easier when looking for the passaporte. The manifest will have the date the ship arrived here in the US as well as when it left the Azores. Typically, I've found that my ancestors filled out their passaporte requests anywhere from a week to a month before they set sail from the Azores.

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Azores DNA project matches
Hi Elaine I guess at this point there are just not enough people tested to make a match but that is not to say that testing is not helpful and will not provide results. I have had my mothers DNA tested and she is in Haplogroup W. I had traced her maternal line back to a woman who came to Quebec from France in the 1600's. I put the results on the MtDNA website and have met others who subsequently traced their line to the same woman. So testing has provided help and has verified the genealogical work and has introduced me to distant cousins. Generally speaking on the information you have provided what you need is a match from the same village/area from where your ancestor came from to give you a clue as to what the line is. I think we are all looking for the magic bullet result that will reveal all but the truth is that testing and research must go hand in hand. In Portuguese genealogy surnames do not necessarily mean much in tracing a line as there were so many name changes along the way. I have been watching the results and would like to find a match to my father's maternal line from Sao Miguel.

My relative did his DNA as part of a surname project and in hopes he would match someone which might give us a hint of his father's line but no luck there at all. Of course, it could mean people he would match have not done a DNA study. So, what do you feel you got out of doing the study?

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Disappointment with microfilms...HELP!
Hi Terri, The best way is to start with some smarter searching. It is difficult to search for a birth record because there are many more births than marriages. To search for a birth you have to know the name of the parents because the births only give the first name of the person. Further in the record is given the names of the parents and grandparents. If you have the names of the parents then it may be easier searching for their marriage record. Most marriage records in the 1870-1880 time frame have the parties named in the margin of the record and the record itself gives more information such as the names of the parents, age of the bride groom, occupation, parish where they were baptized. In the Azores you have to know what village/parish your people are from as this is how records are kept. Also keep in mind the depending on what parish you are looking in will determine what years were filmed. Most filmed records end in 1883/84 as they were filmed in 1983/1984 (100 year rule). So if the person you are looking for was born after that time there is no filmed record available When searching for a birth record I try and narrow it down to as close a date as possible. Then pick a year to search. If the person name was Antonio de Mello then I start by focusing in on every record for a person named Antonio. Sometimes the name Antonio is written in the margin and on other records it is in the text of the record. You have to learn where in the record to look. In many of the earlier records they start off with the name Antonio filho de Manuel de Mello and Antonia de Jesus etc I hope this helps. You may also try posting what you are looking for with as much information as you have on this list as there may be others searching in the same area.

Terri, When I read these films, the first thing I look for is the name, and the first name Maria will drive you crazy, as it seems every other one was Maria - and sometimes when you think the name is something else, chances are they were originally named Maria on the records and the other name is either their middle name of nickname i.e. my Emma was Maria on her baptism record. Then I look for the names of the parents in the text. This is about all you can do when you don't have an exact date. I have done this so many times on many Portuguese, Danish, Polish records and it seems the easiest for me. I don't try to read all the text unless I feel I might have the person I am looking for. Don't get frustrated. If you feel you are getting that way, get up, walk around a bit, do some exercise while sitting and then go back to the screen--sometimes these breaks help.

I would suspect the real name in the Azores would be Jose Vieira Simas. His fathers name would be Jose Vieira and his mothers would be Teresa Simas. Possibly his mother went by another name such as Teresa de Jesus. I am assuming this marriage took place in NZ. Do you know when Jose emigrated there? Some of the Passport records are on line. To do any research in the Azores you need to know what village your Jose came from. Simas is not a common name so that should help there. Vieira is found more often but not as much as Sousa.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all my friends on the List. When I think of the last two days I am grateful and thankful to God I pressed my doctor about the swelling in my foot presisting after having surgery to repair my Achillies tendon a month ago. He sent me for an ultra sound to check my circulation and it showed I have a major blood clot in my leg. In other words I was a ticking time bomb for a pulmonary embolus or even worse. They were thinking of sending me right to the ER. I was thinking I might wind up in the Hospital for Christmas. After checking with my doctor they decided to send me to him. They would not let me walk out of the hospital but insisted that I be put in a wheel chair and they took me out to my car in the parking lot. When I got to my doctor he put me on some blood thinners and took a blood test. So for now I am home and will be in church for Christmas. I will be following up next week with more appointments. I guess my Christmas present was finding out I had this condition before it really became serious. I have something to really be thankful for this Christmas. May God bless all of you.

Hi Jacki, First check the 1930 US Census to see if he was a Citizen. If he was then depending on where he lived the court that had jurisdiction at the time would have the records. Many immigrants did not apply for citizenship until the late 1930's when social security was started. At that time you had to be a US citizen to get social security. Citizen ship records could be in a state district court such as records for Attleboro, MA up till the 1940's were kept at the Taunton district Court and then transferred to the State Archives in Boston. Later records in the 1950's were done in Federal courts and are now in the Federal Archives in Waltham MA.

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Jose Tavares Ferreira
Hi Charlotte, I just wanted to let you know I am still looking at Estrela records of Jose Tavares Ferreira. I was at the FHC on Saturday and was looking for the marriage I looked from 1880 to 1870 and did not find it there but I need to continue and try the records 1870 to 1860 which I am now convinced it the right time. In re-looking at the passport records I am sure Maria was 11 years old when they left the Acores. So that would mean she was born around 1870. I hope to get back to the FHC this week and continue looking. I will keep you posted.

It looks like I will have to find the birth of Maria and or the marriage which I have good reason to believe is in Estrela. If Maria was 11 and they were 33 38 then that means they most likely married when they were 22 and 27 which is in the range when most marriages took place in the Acores. It should not be difficult finding them. Another thing infant mortality was high back then they may have had other children that died.

Hi Linda, Perhaps there is a connection but right now I am trying to get into the Estrela records with this family. Once I find the first record it should be easy to take it back and find a connection. This CCA passport information confirms that I am looking in the right place. Have you been able to get any more information about Marianno? I think you said your aunt an uncle had his marriage certificate that might give us more information. Also do you have any idea as to when he traveled from the Acores? Maybe I can get lucky on the CCA website.

Sometimes they use to put the occupation after a persons name or his current status in life, i.e. widower, or sometimes the word natural or naturais meaning that he or they were also born in the town spoken of above. However, I can't make out any of these clarifications in your document. I would agree with Margaret Vicente that it is definately Ignacio da C I believe that it may be Casimiro but it is definately da. I don't believe that Rezende is even there. I believe that whatever that word is it ends in ente. Look at the word presente just 3 lines above. The ending is the same. I think the best thing to do is to look for a marriage record for a brother or sister which would have all of the other names on the family's side and you might get a better view. Birth records for Florinda or one of her siblings should also give you some clarification. Hang in there; some documents are almost impossible to read.

Hi Leslie, Welcome to the list. If you live in the New England area there is a workshop at UMass at Dartmouth on Oct 31 presented by Cheri Mello and George Pacheco. I attended a very similar one this past spring presented by them. You may find it helpful. My grandmother was a Carvalho, her parents were from Bretanha and from Ponta Delgada. I have worked with the records form Sao Sebastiao in Ponta Delgada and have the films on permenate loan at the local Family History Center. I know when you first start it is overwhelming looking at hand written records in a strange language but I was in the same situation when I started in 1990. The best records to start looking at are the marriages. These records would list the name Virginio Augusto de Carvalho and most records the names are written in the margin or at the top of the page. Birth records would only have the name Virginio which may be harder to spot. But Virginio is not a common name such as Jose or Manuel so you are lucky there. You have many friends on this list that will help you when you have questions.

Hello Lex, Welcome to the list. It appears your great grand parents (your grandmothers parents) were born in the time after the records were filmed. You are lucky you have their birth dates and the village which they were born so the archives should not have a problem in finding them. There are no books that I am aware of so your best bet is to get copies of their birth records from the archives. Once you have these you will be able to research your family using the filmed records which can be requested at the LDS family history centers.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Is this a twin?
I was playing around this morning on the Massachusetts Archives web site to see if my grandmother was listed. She was born on 8 Dec 1898. I narrowed my search to the last name Carvalho and the year 1898-1899. I had three names returned. Two were from Fall River which was where my grandmother was born. One was listed as Mary and the other was Joao. My grand mothers name was Maria Josephine but on her baptismal record it is listed as Maria. So I would guess that was her even though the date was given as 1899. (it may not have been reported until January 1899 so it was in with the 1899 births.) Now the mystery, the volume number was given 484, page 163. The other person born in Fall River Joao Carvalho that came back with the search is listed as volume number 484, page 163! It is too bad the site does not list parents now I am going to have to go to the archives and look at both records. If my grandmother had a twin brother I never knew it and who knows may be she did not know it. I also suspect this Joao Carvalho may have died before he reached 2 or 3. My great grandmother died in 1907 so perhaps no one ever said anything about it.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: trip to Ponta Delgado
Perhaps someone has already answered this. The using of a digital camera is a method of taking pictures of images from film viewers and other media. Some FHC's have machines which you put the film on and it takes a digital image which you can take home on a disk or flash drive. Our local FHC has one and it is a very helpful tool. The machine is expensive so not all FHC's have them. So the use of a digital camera is the next best thing.
