Just a quick question regarding citizenship.
If I've read this thread correctly I would not be eligible because I have
to go back to my g-g-grandfather to find someone born in the Açores. Right?

Robert,I am pretty sure anyone can become a citizen of Portugal, but since you don't have a parent who is a citizen, then you'll take the long route and have to become naturalized with living there, language proficiency, etc. - pretty much like becoming naturalized in the USA.Doug da Rocha

The Facebook groups have no real way of collaborating on research, but a
good place to post old family photos.
A lot of posts are along the lines of : my grandfather was Joe Dias, do
you know where he's from?
Expect to have a mountain of Portuguese and Brazilian spam start filling up

Doug's post reminded me that I haven't posted about the Portuguese Hawaiian
Genealogy Group on Facebook. We have a fairly active group working in

I have had the opportunity to work on lines in the Azores and Southern
France (not Portuguese...LOL) I noticed something that made me wonder
about terms. In France, there is an equivalent to Pai Incognito. It
escapes me at this moment, but it isn't important. It means the same thing
that
Tyler S,
Post the link to the exact record and its location (left bottom, etc). You

The only one I know was the female got pregnant (by her cousin) and they
set up house while they waited 4 years for the dispensation to be granted.

Hi Tyler,Hopefully your grandfather didn't steer you in the wrong direction, because on image 4, March 1900, there is only a child named Oscar and one named Jose.Oscar's father is Francisco de Sousa, so maybe you just made a mistake?If Oscar is indeed your ancestor, then this becomes interesting
And...no surprise...my hometown of Fall River, MA is #1! At least they're #1
at something... ;)
It is an interesting chart and good for beginners in genealogy. Thanks!

There are cases of pai incognito for the child but later on this child's
children (his grandchildren) name the grandfather. So you might check
these records carefully.

Tyler, I'm referring to your own Sousa ancestors living in Angra.I mentioned they are from Graciosa island. If you are not familiar with the islands, see a map on my website here:http://www.dholmes.com/master-list/azores/graciosa.htmlBut it shows only Graciosa. To see the spacial relationship
