[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: War in 1910's? about ggrandfather Jose Rego Vital from Lagoa, S. Miguel
Hello Maria Sousa, Thank you for your post. It reminds me of what I over heard as a child. My dad (born in th USA 1917) had said that his ancestor 'family' had been well to do in the Azores. There was a some sort of political overthrow that caused the remaining family members in the Azores to be rendered financially ruined. Unfortunately, I don't know the details. Perhaps, once the political coup occured in Mainland Portugal, it spread to the Azores. At that time, wasn't the Azores still considered part of Portugal? In other words, the Azores wasn't an autonomous region at that time, was it? I apologize for my lack of Portuguese history. I am third generation American and my parents never shared family history directly with us children.

I don't know much about Portuguese history, but your post made me think. My family originates from the north of Portugal in Valenca do Minho. It borders the Galicia border of Spain. My grandmother used to tell me her stories. She was born in 1900. Her father was all for the monarchy and around 1910, 1911, the monarchy ended. Her father, my g-grandfather was devastated. She remembers when she was a young teenager, she could hear the cannons and how many soldiers went off to battle. I don't know if this was about some sort of revolution that took the monarchy down or if they were battling with Spain, but the dates match with Jesse's. I also don't know how the monarchy affected the Azores, but many men were probably called to battle.

I think WWI was 1914-1918 or so. How did he know there would be a World War the following year? I don't think you could use fake names to come over. Even people who tried to sneak onto the boat were caught. Two good books on migration to America are John P. Colletta's "They Came In Ships" and Michael Teppers's "American Passenger Arrival Records." See if your local library has them.
