Jack;  I’m not Cheri but; thought you’d be interested to know that google 
translate does a very good job of translating the paragraph you have below.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] http://tombo.pt down again

Hi Cheri,


I've been a quite follower of your board for many years. This is the first time 
I"ve replied. My Great Grandfather, Joao Baptiste Perreira came from Terceira 
and my Great Grandmother was from Pico. I recently visited both islands for two 
reasons:  one to see where my ancestors came from, but also because I am 
writing a novel and some of it takes place in Praia da Vittoria in Terceira. I 
went with my daughter and it was a wonderful visit.


While there took a lot of pictures and made a lot of notes for my book, which I 
am now working on the section that takes place in Praia da Vittoria. One of the 
things I want to reference is a very small chapel, and I found a description of 
it, but it is in Portuguese, which I don't speak! So I'm stuck. 


The first person I thought of turning to for help with the translation is you. 
Would you be willing to translate this for me, or do you know someone who might 
do me such a nice favor? I would be so grateful!


Thank you!


Jack (Perry) Matthews



O Império dos Marítimos da freguesia de Santa Cruz, concelho da Praia da 
Vitória, Terceira, fica situado no Largo José Silvestre Ribeiro, no local onde 
foi outrora a Ermida de São Pedro Gonçalves, e a sua data de construção remonta 
ao último quartel do século XIX, ao ano de 1877.


Esta irmandade celebra a festa em honra do Divino Espírito Santo no denominado 
Domingo da Trindade.
O Império dos Marítimos contem imagens e tem a forma de uma capela. Devido ao 
pequeno número de irmãos e às dificuldades vigentes, esta irmandade não tem 
tido a possibilidade de realizar  atividades culturais durante a semana. Porém, 
no Domingo da Trindade realiza-se o cortejo do Divino Espírito Santo, 
acompanhado por uma filarmónica para a Igreja, onde é celebrada missa de festa, 
no fim da qual se realizam as coroações. Neste dia tiram-se os pelouros e é 
nomeada a comissão para o ano seguinte.


No âmbito da festa deste império, realiza-se, no sábado seguinte, uma tourada à 
corda.

Tombo.pt, a portal, gateway, or Table of Contents to the CCA is working just 
fine. 


The CCA is working for me as it usually does too. At least from my computer. :)
