Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Lucinda Pacheco (1884-1955)

It looks like you found your Lucinda. The birth record for 1881 is the correct person the father is Miguel de Arruda and the mother is Maria Julia Ferreira. http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-RG-RIBEIRINHA-B-1880-1889/SMG-RG-RIBEIRINHA-B-1880-1889_item1/P60.html Going to

Yes, you are correct. It has to do with their sample populations that you are compared against, so everyone will have different percentages at the different companies. Cheri Mello Listowner, Azores-Gen Researching: São Miguel island: Vila Franca, Ponta Garca, Ribeira Quente, Ribeira das Tainhas,

Although, you specified Ribeirinha, you should know Aveiro's can be found in Ribeira Seca, which like Ribeirinha can be found in Ribeira Grande. The point is, sometimes people moved around even though they would list only one freguesia as their native place. Your Lucinda may be in one of the

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Lucinda Pacheco (1884-1955)

I searched the obits and did not find anything on this Lucinda. So I would put her in the mix. The problem I see is this would put her age off from the 1920 census which says she was 37. This would make her 39 off by two years, not necessarily a deal breaker but enough to try and find more
