My ancestors came to Brazil from São Miguel, and I know that some of my

Hello everyone! I'm hoping to get some advice on tracking down an

I have to say that growing up in Brazil, we have the same tradition. It is
a sign of respect to ask for your grandparent's blessing whenever you see
them. We usually ask for it by saying Benção, Vó/Vô and they reply Deus
te abençõe.

Thanks João. This is very helpful. I wasn't aware of some of the mainland
records that were digitized. Hopefully, they'll keep advancing with the
digitization in Viseu where some of my mainland ancestors came from.

Pam,
In response to your research in Maia, I've found that the Maia records are
actually included in the Povoação records for Furnas. My initial research
was for Furnas, and I kept encountering the Maia records there. Not sure

Hi Jeff,
Have you looked at the Rio Grande do Sul Catholic Church records on
familysearch? There are only a few states that have been fully uploaded.
I've found a lot on my family (including my Azorean ancestors), but we are
from Rio de Janeiro. I checked and they do have Rio Grande do Sul
gone. Any help would be appreciated.
