[AZORES-Genealogy] Searching Madruga, Cardoza - Azores

I have been following your group for several months and am amazed at how so many of you have been able to locate where you ancestors came from. I have been researching intermittently for 50 years and have had little success. My great-grandparents, *Manuel Perry Madruga* (b. about February 15, 18

Virginia; Not sure if this is him or not but; worth following up. Ancestry.com shows a Manuel Pereira Madgruda naturalization card. Book 61, page 358. I'm not knowledgeable in this area so, perhaps someone else can tell you how to follow up on this information. Since this is a Rhode Island recor

According to the 1900 census if this is the right person Felipa would have been been born abt 1847. Below is a baptism in Picos http://www.culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/PIC-LJ-LAJES-B-1845-1860/PIC-LJ-LAJES-B-1845-1860_item1/P10.html On Sun, Feb 3, 2013 at 11:21 AM, eric edgar

Dear Eric, Thanks for taking time to look for their records. They did not have a son Arthur. Manuel and Phillipa had six children, all born in Gloucester. I have corresponded many times in the past with Jeff Madruga in California, Arthur may be one of his family. Thanks again. I will check out t

Pam, Working backward from the death record which indicates age at death, in Gloucester, Ma, she, Phillipa should be born about August 24, 1865. I will check the link you have suggested. Thanks for taking the time. Ginny (Madruga) Swinson - Original Message - From: Pam Santos To:

Pam, I looked at that page for a long time. I didn't see Felipa. Perhaps I'm not looking at the right page. I don't speak Portugese and am having a difficult time deciphering the information on the page. Please advise. Ginny (Madruga) Swinson - Original Message - From: Pam Santos

These seem to be the correct Madrugas. I believe the dates are correct. The baptismal record for Felipa Cardoza also seems to be correct. The dates are approximately 5 years off per her death record. Thanks again. You can't imagine how much I appreciate all the help. Ginny (Madruga) Swinson

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Searching Madruga, Cardoza - Azores

Pam, I am rechecking my records for Phillipa. I may have made a mistake. There are conflicting records. Her marriage certificate says she was 21 when married in 1883. That means born in 1862. Her son Manuel was born 1899, which means she was 37. Her obit (1921) says she was 55 - born 1866? The ob
