These look similar to the Lomba da Maia Sousa Bonito's, yet they do not
match. Do you have any dates or time lines?
Is this the same Manuel de sousa Bonito cc Maria Isabel, Ponta Garca, Aug
19- 1819; Their descendants used Bonito in Lomba da Maia.

Ah, that explains it. I assumed that I got the email because I had done
the FamilyFinder, which I guess isn't eligible.
At least it makes sense now!

Are you talking about mainland Portugal? You can try contacting Torre do Tombo
in Lisbon. Also website familysearch.org has some records online. Also google
Portugal genealogy to see if there are genealogist in one of those sites to
help you but be prepared to pay for these services. I have
No. You have to figure out which island and freguesia your ancestor came
from. It takes a bit of time and effort. Researching an immigrant ancestor
is not easy.

is there some sort of genealogy organization in Portugal that I can contact

Basically, you take the Family Finder test and I look at your Matches. I
can tell you if they are researching Sao Miguel island, Flores island, etc.
And if you are real lucky, you may find a 2nd cousin who has a tree with
your freguesia (village).

Family Tree DNA (FTDNA) has allowed for volunteer group administrators to
oversee projects. One was created for the Azores and I over see it. We have
2200-2300 members. Because we pool our DNA in a project it allows for us
admins to observe patterns and clusters. Once we get the clusters going, we
so whats the DNA project ?

The 1850s emigration out of the Azores had no photos or portraits. You have
a name and a general date. You need a place. Unless another Australian has
an idea, you'll have to turn to DNA and see where your matches are
researching. The Azores DNA Project on Family Tree DNA is clustering up
nicely
I do have one picture of him, which is a portrait.

Hi Anthony,
I did not see a Jose Silva or Silveira on the Water Lily that went to
Australia in 1853 (I think).
You'll have to use Australian sources to track him there, see if he
naturalized, if his obituary said anything, etc. I'm sure those in
Australia who have traced their Azorean ancestor
well, the name of my grandfather, 5 or 6 generations ago, is Joseph Silver,
born somewhere in the azores, around 1836.
he that's about all I know.
he took a ship, and came to Australia, from 1850 something.
the info I have is quite limited.

I have helped a few people with the Bonito name.

Dear Ana and JR,
It is my understanding also that Bonito started out a nickname. My father’s
baptism record lists him as Eduardo Couto Bonito, and my grandfather is listed
on his marriage record as João do Couto Bonito. My family dropped the Bonito
when they came to the U.S. I would be
You are amazing!!! Thank you guys!

If I may, who was Manuel Lourenco Bonito married to? I have some Bonitos in
my files and would like to see if they are related. Bonito means pretty and
fine, but it is also a fish, a kind of tuna. And may be the source of the
nickname, as many people were fishermen.
