Jessica,
My Victor family had a circus. They orginally came from Italy and
mainland Portugal. Why they settled in the Azores is a mystery. They
performed on the trapeze and one of my great aunts said she hung from
her hair (ouch!!) My aunt told me they also had animals (horses and
dogs). So
Jack, I have also done research in Altares and Ribeirinha, Maybe I can help

Celeste,
Curious... When was you grandmother b. in Porto Judeu as one of my
great uncles, Manuel Victor, was born in the Village of Santo Antonio
Porto Judeu in 1885, which means my circus family was in that area
then. I don't know what happened to him, though.

Maria Jose Ferreira Dinis, my maternal grandmother, was born January 19,
1897 in Porto Judeu, Terceira, baptized at Santo Antonio, to Joao Ferreira
Dinis born Oct. 28, 1873 in Porto Judeu and Maria Jose Ormonde born Jan. 3,
1870 in Porto Judeu, both baptized at Santo Antonio.
Jack,
How about first and last names? I am sorry, I have my files indexed by
first name and just having last names make searching complicated.
My maternal grandmother's ancestors go back to the founders of the Island of
Terceira and I do have a few names from many of the villages in
