[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Name of the parish and island
I'd be very interested in knowing what you come up with for this marriage. My grandfather's family is from Flamengos, and I've long been told that the Duartes are cousins. My grandfather emigrated in 1907 with his best friend and "cousin" Francisco Duarte. They were both about 18 at the time, sponsored by their older brothers who had settled in the East Bay area across from San Francisco, and moved and settled in the City. I knew the next generation of offspring of "Frank" Duarte, and they were certain the Duartes and Leals were related, as my aunt and father had insisted, but no one knew how. Obviously, the connection was too far back for anyone to know exactly. What's interesting is the Duarte name came from the Flemish founder Josse van Heurter, who first settled along the shore at Praia do Almoxarife but left due to a lack of potable water and some pirate attacks, and then to the valley just behind, Vale dos Flamengos, where the colony did well. "Duarte" also appears as "Dutra" and "D'Utra" as does the name of the "big city" of Horta. My Leal family name is not from the Flemish, though the family name "Silveira" runs through all five generations ahead of my grandfather that I can trace. All males use Silveira as their middle name, which could indicate the Leals married into and settled on land originally belonging to a Silveira family. This name came from a literal translation of Willem van der Hagen, a leader of the colony who traveled throughout the "triangle" of Faial, Pico and São Jorge under the name Guillerme da Silveira. Three of his children (two daughters, one son) remained in Flamengos the rest of their lives, and the daughters had children, many of whom used "Silveira" as their primary family identification rather than their fathers' names (which were inserted elsewhere). Somewhere, I'm guessing, offspring of van der Hagen (Silveira) and van Heurter (Duarte) married and formed the connection my family and the Duartes claimed existed. However, I cannot find it. Similarly, I cannot find a link from the offspring of van der Hagen and the Silveira family that features so prominently in my Leal family names. Sigh! I would be most interested in knowing what you're able to come up with regarding any Duartes of Flamengos. Perhaps we can find a similar name somewhere back on our trees. Alas, anyone in California who might have any clue is long dead.

Yes, it is. Those were the parts I could not understand and couldn't get the translation to figure out :). Thank you ever so much.
