[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: PEREIRA FROM SAO JORGE
Hi This is all very exciting. I too have Pereira family from Sao Jorge -Urzelina. My GGrandfather was Joaquim Machado Pereira (b 1850) - I have a great photo of him as a youngish man. His father was Christiano Machado Pereira (born in Rosais 1826 - died Urzelina 1881). Christiano's wives were two sisters from Urzelina - Vitorina Rosa and Perpetua Rosa. Their mother was Vitorina de Jesus and her husband from Urzelina: Manuel de Sousa Machado. Christiano's parents were Felix Jose da Silveira and Maria Joaquina de Jesus from Rosais. Two or three previous generations were from Rosais. I also note that that my 5x GGrandfather's name appears to be Matheus Pereira de Almeida and he came from Rosais and was married in 1777. In regard to the change of name mentioned by Ginger, name changes are sometimes dramatic. Joaquim Machado Pereira changed his name to Anthony Mitchell when he came to Australia in 1870. We only ever found his original name because his step-mother had written him letters in 1881 (or had them written) from Urzelina and I still have them. On his marriage certificate in 1884 (Sydney) he names his parents as Christian Mitchell and Victoria Rosa - so at least they were on the right track. Just goes to show how tricky this business of genealogy can be. The Azorean branch of my family tree is known as the Mitchells by all the cousins etc... Does anybody have any of these folk on their tree? Diane On Thursday, 26 March 2009 03:29:09 UTC+10:30, azores wrote: > Hi MAREK DELACROIX, > > I also have Pereira's from Sao Jorge.

Hi Mary, I, too, am related to Miguel Pereira de Lemos and Barbara Maria (my 6G grandparents). I am related through their daughter Izabel Joaquina de Lemos (b. 1773), who married Silvestre Machado Teixeira. I don't have any information on the births, marriage or deaths of Miguel Sr. and Barbara Maria. I also don't have any information on their parents. Do you have any of this info? If so, I would appreciate any information that you could provide. Thanks! Adam On Thursday, March 26, 2009 12:08:50 PM UTC-7, Mary Bordi wrote: > > My Pereiras are from Norte Grande.

"Wilhelmina" is a translation of "Guilhermina." Both names are feminine versions of "William." "Wilhelmina" comes from the German, however, so I wouldn't exactly consider it an Americanized version. If your Guilhermina Pereira lived in a Portuguese community, she probably wouldn't have changed her name. That's my guess, anyway. Nancy Windows Live™ SkyDrive: Get 25 GB of free online storage.
