Joe that’s great. Do you want to send me what you did and we can go from there. 
I was hoping other researchers had done an index or two. Please email me at 
fpimentel at hotmail.com 
Thanks Fernando

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Vila Franca Records

[Terri Santos]

I wanted to chime in here and say that I am currently working on the *Vila 
Franca Matriz marriage records for 1763-1799* (since there  already is an 
index of names starting 1800-1900)  
I currently have Apr 1763- July 1777 marriages done and will definitely 
share with the group when its all done. 
I think it would be fantastic if volunteers transcribe and share their 
index lists.  I still think its super important for people to confirm 
names, dates with the original documents on the CCA site in case something 
was interpreted wrong. The documents online may have alot more information 
that might be important that we are not including on the transcribed 
indexes like...places of birth, sidenotes of info...etc...

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Vila Franca Records

[Cheri Mello]

Fernando,

As you know, there is a marriage index for Sao Miguel Arcanjo from
1800-1900. My suggestion would be to work backwards from that date (so
starting in 1799 and working backwards). The further back you go, the more
abbreviations are there and the more difficult it is to decipher. You may
find more people willing to help out with the late 1700s too, as those
earlier records are more difficult. I'd think you find more volunteers for
a later time period. Anyways, it's just a thought. Since you are organizing
it, you can do it however you chose :)

[AZORES-Genealogy] Vila Franca Records

[Fernando Pimentel]

In a previous post I found out that Terri Santos had transcribed and made 
available an index of Sao Pedro in VF (which was helpful). I thought that 
instead of going through the records over and over I should create an index and 
hopefully the extra work up front would pay off after. Also once I’m done I 
will share with the group somehow and others can benefit. So I decided to do 
Matriz marriage from 1670-1705. Here’s why I’m writing this post, does anyone 
have any indexes they have done (of VF or any other areas besides the one on 
the Gen website)? Does anyone want to transcribe any records from VF? We can 
coordinate so we split the work and help each other out. 
Thanks Fernando

[AZORES-Genealogy] Vila Franca do Campo - Madeira family

[Steven McNamara]

The only information about this family came from the birth of Francisco 
Joaquim Madeira's daughter Helena born in Ponte Delgada

Translation:

Helena, legitimate daughter of Francisco Joaquim Madeira, who sells 
tableware/pottery, native of São Pedro, in Vila Franca do Campo, and Helena 
de Jesus, housewife, native of Água de Pau, both married in the village of 
Nossa Senhora da Conceição, in Ceará, Brazil, and they live in Rua da Fonte 
Velha, in São Sebastião, Ponta Delgada, paternal granddaugher of Manuel 
Joaquim Madeira and Maria do Rosário and maternal of Félix de Medeiros and 
Ana Joaquina, was born at 1:00am, on 30 July 1883 and was baptized on 1 
August, in São Sebastião, Ponta Delgada. Godparents were José Raposo 
Macedo, widower, seller, and Mariana Júlia Macedo, single, housewife. The 
godparents can write.

If you have any information about this family I would appriecate your help.

Thanks,

Steven

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Vila Franca do Campo - Madeira family

[Pam Santos]

I have a Jose dos Santos Madeira from SM Vila Franca do Campo he was born
on 22 Dec 1812, His father was Manuel dos Santos and was born in Madeira.
Later generations changed to Medeiros, family story says because his father
was from Madeira they added it to their names. If you find a connection let
me know.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Vila Franca do Campo People

[Marcia]

I've been communicating back and forth with the Camara Municipal trying to 
find some information that could be helpful to fellow researchers who 
decide to visit.   One of the things we've really enjoyed are attending a 
couple of the Festas in VFC, but often find it hard to get dates in 
advance.  Here is the festa schedule for the upcoming season:

Festa de São Miguel Arcanjo | Procissão do Trabalho - May 11
Festas do Feriado Municipal – São João da Vila - June 24
Festa do Coração de Jesus (Ribeira das Tainhas) - July 20
 Festa de Nossa Senhora da Piedade (Ponta Garça) - August 3
 Festa do Santíssimo Sacramento (Água d`Alto) - August 24
 Festa do Senhor Bom Jesus da Pedra - August 31

We attended Sao Joao last year and it was wonderful - crazy, but 
wonderful!  Advice to attendees - rest up in advance!  A few years ago we 
attended the Festa de Sao MIguel Arcanjo and it was extremely moving.   

The other thing I've noted from time to time on this board is that folks 
would like to rent apartments in VFC which are also a bit difficult to 
find.   Here are 3 links provided by the Camara.  

http://www.homelidays.pt/PT-Alojamento-Ferias/pt_acores_pt/vila-franca-do-campo_r3.asp

[AZORES-Genealogy] Vila Franca do Campo marriages

grooms.

Campo, and d. 29 MAR 1809, Santa Cruz, Lagoa), parents of Henrique de Medeiros,

23 JAN 1788 in Santa Cruz, and died 01 JAN 1825 in Santa Cruz.


2. Thome Correia and Maria Luiz, parents of Thereza Espirito Santo, AKA Thereza 
Correia, Thereza Pacheco, Thereza de Jesus, b. abt. 1750 in Vila Franca do 
Campo. Thereza married Antonio Vieira Faro 04 JUL 1784 in Agua de Pau, and d.

HI Marcio,

I don't have any of those particular people in my tree.  

I think all of the Sao Miguel Arcanjo films exist.  Canto made an index of 
selected families and that index runs from 1600-1856.  I copied only 1600-1670 
(where the film starts).



The Sao Pedro church has gaps (some are not noted in their catalog).  Shirley 
Allegre and I know of 11 or so pages that are missing in the 1770s.  When we 
went to the archive, we asked for the book.  It had been rebound.  Those pages 
were just lost.



I don't know if that's the same case you have at the Matriz.  Look at the page 
numbers.  Look at the dates and see if they jump too much.

Wish I could be of more help.
Cheri

I would guess that almost half the list does (if they have an island

What do you need from Vila Franca?  Which church?  I have both.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Vila Franca

[Margaret Vicente]

Hi,

Yes it is possible especially after the French invasion in 1807.  The
Portuguese progression up the chart are 1st Homo Sapiens in the North,
Iberians in the South (believed to be peoples from North Aftrica), Celtic,
Roman, Germanic, Morish.  And  then,  after the age of Discovery (Infant Don
Henrique, the Navigator), 60 years of Spanish Dominion, followed by the
French invasion :

France and Spain  signed the Treaty of Fountainebleau, which gave Napoleon
the right to invade Portugal through Spain. They agreed that after the
invasion, Portugal would be divided between France and Spain. The French
occupied the country in 1807, and the Portuguese royal family fled to
Brazil. About 50,000 French and Spanish troops roved the countryside
arresting, killing, plundering and raping as they pleased. In 1808 Portugal
got help from the British, their oldest allies.

  I don't think the  French settled in Vila Franca Xira..  A  grant of land
 about 1147 near Lisbon was given to Guilherme Shire of England, a crusader.
 His name became Xira, a Portuguese corruption of Shire.  He gave it the name
 Vila Franca de Xira.  He had been  one of the crusaders on his way to the
 Holy Land for the second crusade.  The ship made a stop in Lisbon, and never
 left. King Afonso Henriques, with the help of those crusaders, English,
 French, and Germans,. drove the Moors from Lisbon in 1147.  The King,
 grateful for this help, gave land to the crusaders who wished to remain in
 Portugal.

 Today Vila Franca de Xira is a large city on the Tagus river.   So as the
 story goes, is is possible that one of Guilherme's descendants, Goncalo Vaz
 Botelho, founded Vila Franca on Sao Miguel, the first capitol of that
 island.  Vila Franca was destroyed by a terrible earthquake and flood of
 water and mud in 1522   And as a result,  Ponta Delgada became the capitol
 of Sao Miguel.

  Vila Franca is an old city near Lisbon.  Vila Franca de Xira.  According
 to -Nossa Senhora da Vida- 3rd Visconde de Botelho, that Vila Franca do
 Campo was named by Goncalo Vaz Botelho, one of the early colonizers in Sao
 Miguel.  It is thought that he was born in the region of Vila Franca de
 Xira, close to Lisbon where his family had good estates (seigniories).  Many
 of us are descendants of Goncalo Vaz Botelho.

 I'm hoping that perhaps you can provide some advice to us regarding
our upcoming visit to Vila Franca do Campo in about one month.We
hope to locate relatives there but do not have much information to go
on, other than the fact the family could be from the St. Michael's
parish.

 When the family emigrated in 1904, the eldest daughter stayed
behind.   We know her name,  that she was a teacher, and that when her
younger sister visited her many years later she reportedly still lived
in  VF and had a houseful of children and grandchildren.

Our living cousins here in the US have scoured their family records
trying to help us find more information without success.   We know
that she as born pre-1892.   While we've searched LDS films for her
parents vitals, we don't know any of hers.   We've struck out on the
parents as well, and are thinking that they could have been baptized
and married at another parish even thought their passport records id
this as their parish.

We also have some family photos, but none that include this eldest
daughter.   Still we hope they might be useful, and have made reprints
to use when we are there.   Other than simply walking around and
asking town residents, I wonder if you have any advice for us.   We
have also timed our visited to coincide with the annual parish festa,
in hopes that this could afford additional opportunities for us.

We hope that if we can find her decedents, perhaps they can lead us to
more information about the parents.   Any advice at all would be
appreciated.

Regards,   Marcia Andre
