Kellie,
Glad you are finding a lot of help in your researching. The more you try to
read the records the better you get. Just make sure that you practice on
the later records so that you know what the names are in your village. The
further back you go in the records the more the priests used abbreviations
so you need to have an idea of what the names are and how they are
abbreviated! Good luck and you can always post 'need help' documents! There
 is a lot of help here and most will at lease try to translate what they
see.

I just wanted to thank everyone in this group. For a few months I have watched 
and looked at records posted and translations. After the new cheat sheets (love 
these indexes) I decided to take a stab add it. I have added so much  
DOCUMENTED info now and deleted a bunch of stuff I got from other trees 
previously. So many people have names in the trees of all these children with 
last names matching Dad which thanks to this group I have learned that is not 
how it goes no wonder I couldn't find marriages and children. 

I am loving learning about the culture in the Azores, the people, naming 
practices, etc. This group has been amazing.

Pat Corbera is on the Madeira list.  I think she's 100% Madeiran and has
nothing from the Azores.

Another reason we really should get in the habit of signing our last
names.  There's only 1150+ people on this list and I'm sure there are many,
many Pats.

You are very welcome Lorraine! I am happy I could help you  find some 
information. I get so excited when I find someone I'm looking for even  if they 
aren't from my line. It was fun to meet with you & your husband when  you 
were visiting CA. I hope you have a wonderful trip! I hope to go to the  Azores 
someday. That is a dream I hope comes true. Thanks for your kind words.  
I'm happy to help anyone I can. We don't get many people researching the 
Azores  here in our Moreno Valley Family History Center. It is pretty much just 
me  researching the Azores here. Take care.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Thank you to Sherry Barnhurst and Elaine Sharp

2013-03-09 Thread Lorraine Price
I want to thank Sherry Barnhurst, a very helpful contributor to this list,
who found some very important information for me.  I live in Virginia but I
found Sherry on this list when she posted that she had Graciosa films in the
Moreno Valley CA Family History Center.  I got in touch with her, sent her
my info (father from Graciosa) and by (laboriously) searching the Graciosa
films, she found my grandfather's baptismal records.  And in those records
she also found his parents and grandparents on both sides - that's 2 more
generations in my family, my great-grandparents and my
great-great-grandparents!  

 

When my husband and I were in CA at Christmas, we arranged a meeting with
Sherry at the FHC and drove over to meet her and see what she had.  She then
told us how to go about finding more info in our local FHC in VA.  This was
a wonderful experience for me.  Her amazingly generous work and willingness
to help is typical of the people on this list.  We new searchers could never
make such fast progress without the help of all of you who are willing to
share your knowledge and efforts.  

 

A year and a half ago when I first started all this, Elaine Sharp also on
this list and also from CA, was the person who single-handedly found the key
to all the information I've found since then.  I thank her again for all her
work and encouragement.   I've met several people from a family I never knew
I had and I'm going to the Azores in May!  I've arranged with Joao Ventura,
an Azorean researcher also recommended on this list, to help me with finding
family documents before I get there.  I hope someday I'll be able to help
others in this very rewarding work of finding our family's  stories.

I have to let everyone know how important and wonderful the information is that 
Joao has been gathering about men who wanted to be priests. 
 
 Joao just sent me 10 pages of charts that are the ancestors of my Manuel 
Teixeira Homem da Costa from Santa Cruz, Terceira.  This information is the 
result of Joao's work putting together the families from Terceira where my 
grandmother, Maria Jose Ferreira Dinis was born.
 
Thank you Joao and, please keep up the very important work you are doing.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Thank you all for your condolences

2010-06-28 Thread IslandRoutes
I wanted to thank you all for your condolences.  I am sorry if I have
not acknowledged everyone personally.  At some point in the last few
weeks, things got overwhelming.

Know that I read every email and that I appreciate everyone's words.
Things are getting a little easier.  We had a wonderful celebration of
life party with family and friends at my sister's house a couple of
weeks after he died.  We were able to take many photos of the
relatives.  Those photos will be treasured by us all and will add
another element to my family tree mementos.

I've spent quite a bit of time going over the last weeks of my Dad's
life.  I'm happy that I was here and that because I was here my Dad
was able to live his life out in the home he lived in for 48 years.

We are now slowly going through his belongings.  And, I keeping an eye
out for genealogical gems, things to hold on to for the next
generation.  I am also preparing to move in the next couple of months,
so life is still in disarray.

I hope soon I can get back into genealogy.  I found some interesting
things before my Dad's passing and I am eager to get back to it and
place it all together.

Thanks again for your kindness!

Hello E,
 
I was wondering how you went about getting the marriage certificate and the 
notice of intention of marriage.  I found a marriage record on the site but 
only know you have to write to them to get the certificate.  I did not even 
know they had a intention of marriage record.  Do you write to the same place?  
Let me know please.  Thank you Vivian

I want to thank all of you who looked up the birth record for John Silva on 
NEHGS. I am not sure if the birth record found is him but through that effort 
someone found the marriage record his parents that I have been looking for a 
long time, Maria Victor Pedro. Unfortunately, the NEHGS index lists her as 
Pedras and well as the marriage certificate I received from NB. But I paid 
extra and asked for the Notice of Intention of marriage (the form they 
themselves filled out to obtain the license) and her name is Maria Victor 
Pedro. I believe she shares the same father as my Isabel (my BRICK WALL) but a 
different mother. I am now in contact with one of her family members. Hurrah!!
