Cheri, Good to know, I've only seen Portuguese on the Ponta Delgada pages, but I haven't spent much time scrolling through. It seems then, that these are a list of all passengers leaving as oppossed to the American applications that are for approval to leave? Eric On Tue, Sep 15, 2009 at 5:11 PM

Thanks Cheri. I should have written my question a bit more clearly. I was really asking if anyone knew of free newspaper sites that might include Illinois or Rhode Island newspapers where I could look for possibly information on my ancestors. Just kind of a stab in the dark to flesh out the live

Good question Marie. Unlike Eric, I've found Americans and British in the Portuguese passaportes leaving the Azores. That's weird that I've seen them and he hasn't. Hmm. I wonder if you emailed the CCA with your question if they would answer? * * *drac@azores.gov.pt* Want to scan the paper

Mel, Thank you for the newspaper info. I did find out he married in 1894, his wife died in 1900 (I think at childbirth), his son died in 1918 he remarried and he died in 1933 and I have sent for his obit at SF Library. I will play around with this site which is very interesting. "E" --~--~
