Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Machado, Domingos Moniz
Hi Maria, Do you have an approximate time frame/year of when Domingos left S.Miguel for the USA and if he went alone or with family? I'm thinking it might be easier to find his parish through the passports available on the CCA site.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Machado, Domingos Moniz
Hi Jackie. So glad to hear back fm u. Immigration 1885. Have had that thought and searched but can't find him. He is a mystery to us He was my husband's maternal grandfather. My mother in law told us he died when she was 6 and that he was a dentist and was rasied or educated by the Jesuits. Now this makes sense because when I sent to Tufts University for the requirements to get into dental school, a person had to have a good command of the English language and studied prep college courses. He graduated in 3 yrs in 1908. I actually found a business card of his with the address of his office on 174 Hanover Street downtown. I even went on Google Earth to see where it is today. He made a trip to the Azores and Portugal 31 May 1910 and I have a ton of postcards that he sent back to his wife and oldest son, a child at the time. They were living at 70 Burrell Street. I noticed his his mother, Emily (probably Emilia) lived at 70 Burrell back when she died in 1905. When I received her death certificate it listed names of her parents as Joao Moniz and Maria Machado. Now, that's strange; why was her mother's name Machado and that's the name of the family from then on. I I noticed that Domingos always signed everything I've seen as Domingos *MONIZ *MACHADO. I believe he was proud of his name. His brother, Clement, changed his name to Marshall. All of Clem's children were Marshall's. My mother in law told me once there were 5 brothers and a girl. Other than Clem I cannot find anyone of them living together or close by in the census. Thank you so much for your ideas. I am hoping on Saturday, we will be blessed and you will find him. Thank you so much.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Machado, Domingos Moniz
Maria, If I might chime in on the name usage. How the name gets changed is a cultural issue. An example, one of my professors in college was named Nguyen Uy. In Vietnam, the surname appears first, and the given name last. When he immigrated, the authorities changed his surname from Nguyen to Uy. I¹m sure they didn¹t realize it. I suspect the family was so happy to be here (after the fall of Saigon) that they didn¹t fuss about it. With my grandmother. Her father was Jose Rodrigues de Medeiros and mother was Josepha Clara Garcia. The family¹s surname became simply Medeiros here in the states, yet if you look at my great grandfather¹s lineage, its Rodrigues de Medeiros (for several generations), Rodrigues de Serpa (for several generations) and eventually just Rodrigues. As ³they² say: It is what it is. Gayle -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. Follow the confirmation directions when they arrive.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Machado, Domingos Moniz
I'd research a church to the right and then to the left of those churches of Ponta Delgada. Or maybe go back to the 3 parishes of Ponta Delgada and look very, very carefully at the page numbers. Are any pages missing? Shirley Allegre and I had this problem. Couldn't find the marriage in the church. We searched parishes to the right and left of the church in question. Couldn't find them. Upon close examination, we noticed the pages jumped from page P to page W. They must have fallen out of the book years ago. When we went to the Azores together, we asked for that book and we looked at it. It was tightly bound and there were no loose pages. We checked the back of the book for loose pages that may have been placed back there and didn't see any. So we figured the lost pages became kindling one very cold, damp night. Sad, sad, sad.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Machado, Domingos Moniz
Thanks, Cheri Will go back and research and then I'll check a map to see what's around those churches. Yeah, after that, we'll have to go visit the Azores. That would be nice.
