Joanne,
There is an entry on the passports in Ponta Delgada on Feb 13, 1904 for a Jose

I have that info. The problem is that I think that he was from Sao Rogue
but she always said that she was from the "cidade" which is Ponta Delgada and

church would not have kept her baptism record (so

Joanne,
I've found baptisms for children with "pai incógnito" among legitimate
birth baptisms in 19th-century registos kept in parishes on Flores and
São Jorge, so I wonder if the same was true for São Miguel. In fact,
I'd estimate that roughly 1 in 6 to 8 baptisms in those parishes for

Dear Group:
Wow! I can't thank each and every one of you enough for helping. I
certainly have a lot of new information to work with and hopefully I can

On Wed,
For anyone who missed the Azorean concerts that were held this last weekend
in Sacramento, Tulare and San Jose, you can hear several of the selections
on You Tube. Go to a search engine like Google or Dogpile and type in
"musica em viagem" and you can hear various selections from the concert

I stopped by the Portuguese Fraternal Society of America office today and
found a flyer for the book launching of: So Ends Ths Day: The Portuguese in

J.A. Freitas Library, 1120 East 14th St., San Leandro, CA 94577.
I have just put Mr. André Claeys' Vol II of the history of Flemish

In searching the Pereira Azevedo family I've met so many nice, helpful
people on this website. I'm not sure if the following information
will help you. If not perhaps it will help someone else.
Ted Vierra from Los Angeles wrote my sister:

Don Warrin's a great guy, and I'm sure his book is really interesting,
so it should be a delightful evening. My own presentations (blush) of
two books I co-translated -- held last September at several locations
around California, including the J.A. Freitas Library -- was a great

The only thing I might know is that post-1910 records are stored in
local municipal buildings -- as opposed to in Regional Archives (in
the case of São Jorge, in the Angra Public Library). I vaguely recall
on my first visit to São Jorge that my cousin Carlos tried to check
something for me in Calh
Another great reason for members of this group to attend is that if
you've never been to the J.A. Freitas Library before, you'll be
impressed at what a comprehensive reference resource it is, and it
might be of help in your research! Their web homepage is:
