Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Searching Madruga, Cardoza - Azores
Edgar, First, I want to thank you for all the time you have taken to help me. I have now connected with my cousin Eleanor and we have compared many records. What you sent seemed to be a perfect fit until we realized that this Mary P Joseph died at age 89 in the Azores. All the names and facts were too good to be true. Our great great grandmother Mary P (Madruga) is listed in the census as bookkeeper for the family grocery store on friend street. There were in fact 3 Mary P's. The first was the grandmother to Manuel Madruga - the one married to Phillipa (Cardoza) Madruga. The 2nd was an infant that died at birth. The 3rd was the oldest girl of Manuel and Phillipa, grandmother to ELEANOR - my long lost cousing. So if Mary P (1) worked in the grocery store she could not have died in the Azores - unless she went back. So far I have been unable to find any record of her in Gloucester. Also, we have now confirmed that Manuel Madruga, born June 15, 1853 was naturalized in Gloucester in August, 1894. He arrived from Peak (Pico) about October 15, 1870. Any advice is appreciated.

Ginny Swinson - Original Message - From: John Machado To: azores@googlegroups.com Sent: Sunday, February 10, 2013 5:21 PM Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Mary Roderick Joseph Silva | Azores - Island Unknown | Research Ideas I have come to seek wisdom from the group. Recently, I have hit a wall with one of my branches. The ancestor nearest me is Mary Agnes Silva (married William Perry). She was born in Buffalo, NY Jan 24, 1868. Her parents were Joseph Silva and Mary Roderick. I have no records of birth, only the death cert to confirm. In 1869, I find the family in Oakland, CA, with a new son named Joseph. Interestingly, Joseph’s name on the internment records is Joseph Dyce. Also, his death cert is Joseph Dyce with mothers maiden name as Mary Roderick. So that fits. Fast forward to the 1880 Oakland, CA census she is now married to Joseph Nichols and living next door to a family of Roderick’s. I have to assume it’s her brother. Her mother was also living with the brother I believe. All are buried at the same cemetery. All I believe are from the Azores. I would like to find from where in the Azores. I have searched Ancestry at nausea, Google, news archives, library of congress and so on. Anyone have ideas or connections? I can’t find any info on Joseph Silva the biological father. I assume only the birth record of Mary Agnes Silva would include that info, but she was born in 1868 Buffalo, NY, hospital unknown. Mary Roderick (Silva, Dyce, Nichols) died in Oakland in 1901. The death was only recorded on ledger and gives simple info. Thanks for reading… John Machado -- -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Searching Madruga, Cardoza - Azores
Eleanor, I am so happy and excited to hear from you. I have lots of questions. Edgar advised me of the infant Arthur Perry Madruga, born December 11,1894 and died October 12, 1896. I am not aware of an infant girl or her death - that would make eight children. I will check the city archives and search for the older sister? You said your mother was named after her older sister who died as an infant. Manuel Madruga's mother was Mary P. Joseph (Madruga). Do you think your mother was Possibly named after her. I need to check for her death record as well. She is listed in the census as a bookkeeper - I believe she ran the grocery store. To further complicate my search, Edgar has sent me a number of genweb pages where the dates seem to be those of our ggrandfather and gggrandfather. However, on closer examination the Manuel Madruga born Pico 1819 married Maria Josefa Piedade - still sounds correct - died May 10, 1909 Pico. Our Maria P. Joseph - Mrs. Manuel Madruga - our gggrandmother lived in Gloucester, is reported in the census as the bookkeeper. It was John Perry Madruga, my grandfather who died in the 1918 epedemic. I'm not sure of the time of Williams death but he was born September 1890. I believe he died of epilepsy. Do you have any pictures of any of the Madruga's? Your grandmothers brother Manuel married Jennie __, they had a son Robert who married Gloria Swinson. They lived in Manchester, MA. I am married to Gloria's youngest brother Harold Swinson. I have many family connections and stories to share with you. If you would, please share your personal email with me so that we may continue to communicate.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Searching Madruga, Cardoza - Azores
All of our family members have always referred to the family as haviung six children, even the six children themselves. I'll have to go and check for a death record. Maybe he died as an infant. The Madruga pages on the GenWeb site are wonderful. I have looked at them before (many years ago) and didn't put it together because I wasn't sure of dates of place of birth at that time. They seem to be the right ones going all the way back. Pam has given me a lead on Phillipa (Felipa) Cardozo. I am really excited and can't begin to express my thanks to you both.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Searching Madruga, Cardoza - Azores
Pam, Working backward from the death record which indicates age at death, in Gloucester, Ma, she, Phillipa should be born about August 24, 1865. I will check the link you have suggested. Thanks for taking the time.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Searching Madruga, Cardoza - Azores
Pam, In my original post I have given the names and dates of birth of their six children, all born in Gloucester, MA. All records have been taken from the city of Gloucester archives. The parents dates of birth are approximate based on their age at death in Gloucester. Place of birth - Azores. Thanks so much for taking time.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Searching Madruga, Cardoza - Azores
Pam, I am rechecking my records for Phillipa. I may have made a mistake. There are conflicting records. Her marriage certificate says she was 21 when married in 1883. That means born in 1862. Her son Manuel was born 1899, which means she was 37. Her obit (1921) says she was 55 - born 1866? The obit is not official - it is from the local newspaper. I will go to City Hall this week to get the official one. - Original Message - From: Pam Santos To: azores@googlegroups.com Sent: Sunday, February 03, 2013 4:42 PM Subject: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Searching Madruga, Cardoza - Azores I don't think if that baptism is correct, since she would of been 52 when she had Manuel in 1899 On Sun, Feb 3, 2013 at 12:57 PM, Pam Santos pamsanto...@gmail.com wrote: oops you did give children sorry about that On Sun, Feb 3, 2013 at 12:50 PM, Pam Santos pamsanto...@gmail.com wrote: I think if you give us their children it might be more helpful.
