Very interesting, Eric.I see he has a Camacho line going back to Bandeiras and likely my relative, since my Camacho is also from Bandeiras.I also noticed one person in my database named Jose da Rosa Duarte from Feteiras, Faial in the 1700s. Of course, he's too old to be his father, but maybe my hun
Rondo, that's not the history of the Azores - Azoreans didn't travel anywhere
unless there was an absolute need to. Their lives weren't much above
subsistence level, so, they weren't into sightseeing, they were into survival.

I think it was common knowledge that whalers from New England would stop in
the Azores and pick up extra crew. After the trip the Whaler would go to New
Bedford or any of the other ports in the US to deliver their catch and the
crew would be paid and then left to their own means without returning t

Bob,
I have a file on the Frederick Vincent Ambrose family. He was married three
times. To Anna Souza in 1882, Mary A Silva in 1904, and Frances V in 1915.
What are you looking for? I'l start a new thread for that family. I have
many photographs that are likely his family.

There is/are ship(s) that brought people from the Azores to the US
illegally and there is no ship's manifest documenting these people so
trying to find them in a ship's manifest is highly unlikely. I often
wondered if these people obtained a Passportes from the Azores since they

Antonio,
At the end of the ship manifest (last page), the Captain (or purser, whoever)
would write a list of the passengers and how many had died, how many were born
and if any stowaways were found. There is no list that I know of that just
lists the stowaways into the USA.

Thanks Doug, that is true. However, what's intriguing is what two sister

at the history at that time, may be troops were in town.

How would they be recorded on a ship's manifesto?
Anyone seen a ship manifesto mentioning a stowaway?
Are there any records of stowaways from the Acores to the U.S.?
