If you are researching the USA - in the South circa Civil War, you get  
tired of hearing the courthouse burned down and no records are available.  
One county courthouse burned down 4 times!!
Some vets who try to obtain a copy of the DD214 have had to deal with the  
records being destroyed, if memory serves me correctly, by water  
damage.and so it goes. Also, I tried to get records for who was in WWI  
and they also were not available.

There's a gap in the records (1884-1894) because they are missing.
American ones have missing gaps too :(

Ponta Delgada, Sao Miguel. There is a gap 1884-1894 (don't know why). Horta

Lester,

I don't know that someone else could leave under someone else's name.

Only the port of Ponta Delgada on Sao Miguel is online at this time.  You
don't state where your ancestors were from.  They could have sailed out of
Angra on Terceira or out of Horta on Faial.

Hi Lester,

 

Passports were required to travel (leave) the Acores. Only the ones from Sao
Miguel are on line. I would not assume he left by other means It could be
the name is wrong or perhaps the writing was bad and you missed it. If you
found his brothers then you know the council and village he came from I
would search the columns for everyone that came from that village. Can you
determine his arrival date in the US? If you can then I would go to the
passport records and start searching back from that date it most likely is
within a week of leaving the Acores. 

 

I do remember two men that applied with my great grandfather the same day.
All their names were together and they were all from the same village.  The
ship sailed a week later. When the ship arrived in NY only my Great
grandfather and one of them was on the ship. The other man must have had
second thoughts about leaving.

Questions about passports:

 

1. Were passports required to leave the Azores?

 

2.  I have been looking through the "Registo de Passaportes"  for a person
who left the Azores in 1904-1905. If his name does not appear in the
register, can I assume that he left through other, unconventional means?

 

3.  There was a passport for an older brother issued in 1905 and probably
not used by him.  Is it likely that his younger brother used this passport
to travel to the United States?

 

Thanks!
