Vivian Have you tried the Church Baptismal Records? That would be the place to look that might have the info you need. I'm sure that they were Catholic so try the Catholic church in SLO. Rosemarie - Original Message - From: Vivian Christy To: Azores@googlegroups.com

Vivian For the timeframe you have the births, I think they would be at the Mission in SLO. The Mission have been microfilmed but the Baptisms only go to 1869! Darn. The marriage records to to 1906 and can be ordered from Salt Lake City. Otherwise, you'll have to get into contact with the

Hi Ronnie,   I went to Guadalupe, Ca. about 15 yrs ago and found Oso Flaco but it was just a Road not an actual town.  There was a church there built in 1875 Our Lady of Guadalupe Catholic Church.  I will try to see where they would have kept the baptismal records for that church. I don't know

Robin,   Thank you for all your information.  I will do somemore checking and like you said make sure that the boundry did not change during the time period when they should have been there.  Also check out the Guadalupe Museum.  I do put them aside and move onto someone else and then go back.

Hello Judi John My connection is with Francisca, in that she is a distant cousin. My connection to Lopo Anes is that one of his sons married one of my cousins. If you have descendants for Manuel and Francisca I would love to get that information. Let me know if and/or how I can help.
