Cheri, In a previous post on the subject (Pesquisa de Passaportes Feb. 7) you passed along Mel's e-mail address. I tried to send a message and have yet to hear from her. I also tried the website yourislandroutes.com and sent her a message via the e-mail address there, still nor reply. Either s

Thank you Cheri for Mel's email address. As for my my family in Hawaii, all that I know is both the Azorean branch and the Madeiran branch were of the Suveric. Then went to seperate islands. The Azorean branch came to the mainland in 1913. While the Madeirian branch waited until the early 1920's

Paul G, You can reach Mel at islandroutes at gmail.com Yes, the Portuguese Hawaiian Society would be of help, but they have info only from the American end. And you've probably discovered all that right now. The fellow's name is Dan or George and his last name is Nelson. He's on this list. He

Thank you Dano, Aaron and Richard all of you have given me more ideas and areas to research for the information I seek. Richard, I believe you are correct that they may have bundled all the plantation workers under one* type* of passport. Cheri, no I have not contacted Melody or anyone else at

Paul G, Have you asked Melody Lassalle (Mel) who runs the Your Islands Routes web site and list?? That's what she calls her Portuguese Hawaiian genealogy stuff. You do have your freguesia though. You are able to research going back in time in the Azores. I know it's annoying missing a piece on

Paul G, I've looked 3 times. Nada. I looked down the column for Povoacao, checking for either Matriz, Mae de Deus, or Lomba anything (since it's squishy). Then I rechecked down the destination column for Sandwich or Honolulu. I also checked the top and bottom of each page, looking at the passen

Paul, #472 is the passenger or berth # for the entire family. The numbers are sequential, so its not the passport #. Occassionally, the passport # is listed, but that's not it. There seems to be something written between that # and the names, however, its too small to read from this magnificatio

Hello, You know, there was a a number written in front of the family, Here is the number: *AR2226723* Now, I'm not sure if each individual (even children) were issued a passport number, if they were, then I can't see the others. I tried uploading the passenger list that Paul had uploaded

Paul G, When you said, "He left Sao Miguel via Ponta Delgada on 5 Oct 1906..." Where did that date come from? The other thing is that it's hard to look for a Manuel. Go down the column for the Council and Freguesia and look for R.Grande, Mae de Deus (or maybe Matriz) and then look to see if it'

Hello, I went through Ponta Delgada passports, 1906, and did not find Manuel Bernardo da Silva. I found several Manuel da Silva's, and one Bernardo da Silva, at least it looked liked Bernardo, but parents were not correct and the wife was not the same. I did find the baptism record that yo
