Jose Soares X Joaquina Candida de Mello 2 Jan 1828 she was from parish of Sao Roque, Rosto de Cao, I don't know about him. I copied the marriage certificate and can't figure out his, Jose's mother's name. His father is Jose Soares X Rosa de Inama? Can you make out her name? It's probably something you're familiar with.

I do not know the group you mentioned. You should, if possible, collect information from living relatives first. l. Name of parents 2. Place where they were born, if Sao Miguel, then you want to know what parish they were from; like Sao Pedro, Sao Jose, Sao Roque, etc. That's like a parish here. 3. Year of birth or approximate 4. Any brothers and sisters would be helpful of your parents and dates Name of your paternal grandparents same thing; place of birth; year of birth, if possible or guess Name of your maternal grandparents same thing That's a start; try to subscribe to the [email protected] if you are interested in ANY part of the AZORES. If you go to the website familysearch.org, you will see where you can download for free a Personal Ancestry File (PAF) and put these names in it so you can keep track as you go along. It is free. It is very helpful if you could find out what town your ancestors were from in the Island of Sao Miguel; do you have any certificates? Hope this gets you started. M. Lima (how did you get my name?
