Groom's dad: Looks like it says "de ciro" which might be "deciro." Decir is "to say." It doesn't make sense there. Bride's parents: Umm, he sneezed on the dad's name and you can curse the CCA for the watermark? That one you will have to pull her baptism to get it I think. Cheri Cheri Mello Listo

[AZORES-Genealogy] History of Azorean Surames Resources

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] History of Azorean Surames Resources

Andrew, There is a book called *Armorial Lusitano *which gives the origins of the Portuguese names, not necessaryily Azorean. The book is all in Portuguese but has the coats of arms and a brief history of the names. I bought the book several years ago from a book dealer in Lisbon. This is what is

Andrew M, However, most families really don't have a coat of arms or armorial. We were just a bunch of hard working peasants back then! Also, you are used to the American tradition of naming patterns and you only *think* your surname is Medeiros. It's not. My surname should have been Jacome when

Thanks JR and Cheri. Now it obviously looks like Lobam even so heavily sneezed upon. Hindsight after someone reads it for you is wonderful. I think Cheri is right that I will have to find another record to get the name under the watermark, but both of JR's suggestions look possible. The nam
