Hey all, After 4 years of working on my tree, I've hit some major roadblocks. Is it worth hiring a genealogist? My Portuguese is terrible and I live in Mexico. These are the spots I'm stuck. ANY information is eagerly accepted. 1. Antonio Jose Cordeiro, Matriz Graciosa (my great-great-

Hi Analytic (??), This is a do-it-yourself group, where we help each other out. Many of us had to learn how to translate (well, bumble our way) through the records and many of us have become quite proficient and can help others now. The how to do it yourself is here on the Azores. You want chapte

Well, it gives you places to start. The Pico site can be searched in English, just click on the British flag on the search page. The Azores docs are in Portuguese but they follow a pattern.

Hello, Antonio's first wife is Antonia de Jesus and she is your ancestor (mother of Francisco). She died 10 Sep 1833 and Antonio married at least once more after that. Here is their marriage: http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/GRA-SC-SAOMATEUS-C-1808-1825/GRA-SC-SAOMATEUS-C-
