Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Help -need info from Robert DeMello's book

Hi Nina, It says Jose de Mello, 37, son of Jose de Mello & Martinha Rosa from Matriz of Ponta Delgada (that's the Sao Sebastiao church) with Francisca da Conceicao, age 32 and children Agostinho 8, Antonio 6, and Jose 3. No mention of a Manuel. #480 on the Suffolk. The front of the book says the

[AZORES-Genealogy] Help -need info from Robert DeMello's book

I'm having limited success finding information on my grandfather, Jose De Mello. Family records shows he emigrated to Hawaii from Azores. Based on the 1930 census for Honolulu, he was 50 yrs old (which then calculates to 1880 birth year) and emigrated 1882 around 2 years old. My understanding

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Antonio Botelho and Thomazia de Jesus

Hi Melissa and Cheri, That's because the record is incorrect. The name is Luis not Francisco and the paternal grandmother is also incorrect, her name is Anasticia Joaquina. Notice how the record shows both grandmothers with the same name. Here's Luis's birth record with the correct set of paren

I had the incorrect record actually. My bad translation skills. I think the only connection Lillian and I could find was through the DeMello family which makes sense if Lillian does not share DNA with my Aunt so it has to be on my maternal line. With all the information JR posted on the Furta

If my mothers DNA matches Lillian then it must be through her maternal side. I believe the only connection Lillian and I could find was through the DeMello family. Todd On Monday, January 22, 2018 at 1:34:55 AM UTC-5, Cheri Mello wrote: > > I didn't see an AntoniO, but an AntoniA. I think you s

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Antone F. Lawrence of Sao Miguel Azores

Thanks. Keep me updated. I'll contact Lillian again soon. I remember we could not find the connection through the Furtado line though. Lillian and I are related on both sides of our families so we share a lot of DNA. Todd On Monday, January 22, 2018 at 9:53:25 PM UTC-5, Cheryl Lawrence wrote:

Ummm, you're asking an Azorean genealogy list about something that could be a Russian passport? I know of no one who is of Portuguese/Russian descent on this list. Maybe there is. Or maybe someone married into their family who is of Russian descent and knows. But I doubt you'll get any help for a R

Men generally do not change their names around. The priest was required to read the record back, so the vast majority of errors were caught. I'll look over this when I get home, although Mara may beat me to it. I do know that in instances where I have found discrepancies, I had to collect all sibl

You have to be careful. There are Furtado Lourenco's and Furtado Lourencia's. The first is mostly in Ponta Garca; the latter is mostly in Ribeira das Tainhas and come from Vila Franca. Moreover, they sometimes interchange the names! And there are similar names in both villages! I suspect the R
