Though my Luiz Ferreira b. abt. 1700 was from Ribeira Grande m. to Maria ? de Mederios. They brought down Luiza de Medeiros m. Manuel do Santos Faria. Their child was Monica Jacinta de Jesus who married Joao Borge Tavares. Joao was the grandchild of Joao Rodrigues Ferreira and Maria dos Santos. The male dropped the Tavares in the early 1800's? I can understand the female dropping Ferreira since they kept their mothers name instead as you can see by Ferreira is no longer added as well. They are coming from NS da Conceicao, but others are from NS da Estrella as well.
Can there be a connection by siblings?

I have the films for both NS Estrela and Santissimo Salvador at my local FHC and have accumulated much information on the marriages in both Parishes. You have the parents of Jose Tavares Ferreira and his birth date does that mean you have his Baptismal record from Ribeira Grande (I assume NS Estrela) that would give the grand parents of Jose Tavares Ferreira and Maria Augusta Pimentel. A quick look in my files and I find a Maria daughter of Jose Pimentel born 8 Apr 1848 in Ribeirinha. There is a good chance we may have a connection.

I have much information on my mother's family roots. Her grandparents were Jose Tavares Teves born on June 1, 1854 in Rabo de Peixe and her maternal grandmother was Rosa Augusta Ventura also from Rabo de Peixe. We can trace both of these families back to the 1600-1700 hundreds. However, I have very little information on my mother's fathers family. He was Joseph Tavares Ferreira and was born on Feb. 22 1879 in Riberia Grande and was the son of Jose Tavares Ferreira born in 1843 and Maria Augusta Pimental born about 1848. He arrived in Hawaii on Aug. 24, 1881. I would be very grateful if anyone has any info. on this side of the family.
