Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Texeira from Ribeira Grande, Sao Miguel island to Hawaii
Here is the passport list from Ponta Delgada: http://goo.gl/3Og2JO your ancestors are near the bottom of the page. The emigration notation document can be found here: Câmara Municipal da Ribeira Grande, MUSEU DA EMIGRAÇÃO AÇORIANA...link: http://mea.cm-ribeiragrande.pt/?p=p search tab: Requerimentos séc. XIXhttp://mea.cm-ribeiragrande.pt/?p=psp=req if you find there's a mix up of the document, use the contact us tab, and email them about the document mix up. I had a few that were incorrectly indexed and I emailed them. They sent me pdf's of the correct documents in a week or so. I think they have a Francisco Barrela document where your Manuel should be. What I mean is the link reads Manuel Teixeira, but the document is not his. Research it a bit more and see what you can come up with. These are nice documents to add to your family collection...and they may give you additional clues. When I initially located one of my ancestors from the Ponta Delgada passport registration list, is listed her as being from Ribeira Grande. So, I thought I would either have to wait for the CCA to post RG records or order the microfilm from LDS, Then one day someone posted a link to the emigration records. I found my ancestor's document; and it listed her as living in Rabo de Peixe but a native of Achada Grande. From that information I've worked back as far as I can go with her direct lineage. One more link for you: this is actually from the CCA website, it's information that's found on the passport registration. It's easier if you search through the advance search tab. All 5 of your ancestor were listed here: http://www.arquivos.azores.gov.pt/ On Thursday, March 20, 2014 9:29:10 PM UTC-7, Syndi T wrote: Thank you Cheri. I will definitely look into it tomorrow.

Aloha Aaron, Thank you so much for the information! I was able to open the first link to the photo of the page. I was unable to open the other links ( it went to the home page). I will take your advice and contact them. Thank you again.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Texeira from Ribeira Grande, Sao Miguel island to Hawaii
Go to LDS.org (the church's website) to locate family history center closest to you. They're closed on Mondays but usually there will be people there to answer the phone and help you get started from around 9-3 from Tuesday to Friday and Saturdays afternoon. They were very helpful to me. Maria Elena Sent from my iPhone On Mar 20, 2014, at 11:21 PM, Cheri Mello gfsche...@gmail.com wrote: FHC = Family History Center.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Texeira from Ribeira Grande, Sao Miguel island to Hawaii
No, the LDS.org site is the part that deals with the religion. To deal with genealogy and family history, you go to the LDS's genealogy site at www.familysearch.org. Since they've redesigned their FamilySearch Web site, I have no idea of how to navigate to the FHC Locations page. A google search pulled up this: https://familysearch.org/locations/centerlocator Every FHC will be open different days and different hours. Mine is open Monday through Saturday. Others are open only a couple of days a week. So you will need to check the one nearest you for hours. And if you live in an area with weather, such as snow, that will affect the operating hours as well.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Texeira from Ribeira Grande, Sao Miguel island to Hawaii
Yes, I said the Lds. Org because that's been where I've gone to find a meetinghouse when I travel. But I just checked the familysearch.org link you sent and that works great. I just tried entering a city and state anywhere and Voila! The map showed the centers and when you hold the cursor over the area you want, the address pops up. At first I just saw the map and didn't see the search bar at the top. That's great! Nice shortcut . Thanks, Cheri.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Texeira from Ribeira Grande, Sao Miguel island to Hawaii
Hi Cheri and Maria, Thank your or the link and clarification. I have joined familysearch.org and I located the FHC on my island. They are open 2 days a week and it is the same place I went to years ago as a child with my grandmother. I know most or their records were lost to a fire so I hope they can help me further my search.

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Texeira from Ribeira Grande, Sao Miguel island to Hawaii
That would mean he was born about 1843 and married around 1872. Those dates fall in the dead zone for the records I have. I would start looking at the marriage records of NS Estrela in Ribeira Grande for the marriage of Manoel and Maria. The records for Ribeira Grand are not on line yet. In the mean time you could order the film at the FHC near you but the records when they are put on line are easier to use than the micro films. I can definitely say that the marriage is not in Ribeirinha as I have all the marriages from there.

Hi Richard, The only information I have is what my grand uncle had found on his own and the other information I located from my great grandfather: his name was Jose but then it changed to Joseph Texeira. His birth date was September 23, 1877 or at least that's what is own his grave. The only other information about Maria da Estrella is that she died in April 1927 and was buried at the Kurtistown Catholic Cemetery but there are no markers. The cemetery has fallen apart.
