Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Faria from the Azores

Edna, YES! I'm still trying to figure out that too! I was sure it was from Antonio Pereira de Faria and up that line, but now I don't know since Manuel was really a Goulart and on his mother's side, do Coracao de Jesus! His godfather was Manuel Silveira de Faria- I'm assuming that's who he was

Sami,\ I made a mistake. St. Paul's Church in San Pablo, CA. My children attended St. Joseph's Catholic School in Pinole, CA. We also have St. Joseph's Church in Winters, CA, where I live now. On Fri, Feb 17, 2017 at 2:36 PM, Sami wrote: > Sandra, is that St. Joseph's

Sandra, is that St. Joseph's the church, or the cemetery? On Thursday, February 16, 2017 at 7:49:25 PM UTC-6, Sandra Perez wrote: > > Yes, > > St. Joseph's is still there. > > On Thu, Feb 16, 2017 at 11:24 AM, Sami > wrote: > >> Thank you Sandra! I've contacted a couple

I just wanted to post an update: As of last night, I found Manuel and his family This has been 3 years of digging. I'm so excited! He and his family were from Capelo, Faial. His father was Antonio Pereira GOULART; mother was Maria Angelica do Coracao de Jesus. I am now trying to connect

Based on the information you provided I think you should seriously concentrate researching records from the island of Faial. On Wednesday, February 8, 2017 at 7:57:11 PM UTC-8, Cheri Mello wrote: > > Repost for Sami, saudade1264 at gmail.com > > My grandfather was Portuguese, and his father was

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Faria from the Azores

Thank you Sandra! I've contacted a couple other churches in the area just yesterday- St. Paul (my great-grandmother's mass was held there when she died), and St. Catherine of Sienna. Is St. Joseph's still there? My great-grandmother and my grandfather are buried at St. Josephs. I'll check into

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Faria from the Azores

Generally, you have to get back to about the early 18teens to make a connection. A few lucky people hit someone researching their lines right away. Most don't. You really need your freguesia (village) and you don't have your island yet. Knowing the Azores is like saying you know someone was born

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Faria from the Azores

Does anyone have any of these people in their family trees please? I keep hitting brick walls with each one of these I try to trace. The main ones are Manuel P. Faria, John Enos/Enes Vargas (or sometimes shown as John V. Enos), and John's wife Emma. Does anyone know if "Emma" is a nickname for
