I am looking for information about two ancestors from the Azores. The spelling of the names is very likely different originally in the Azores. Joseph VINCENT born 1812 (which island is unknown) died 1899 and is buried in the Catholic cemetery in Sawyers Bar, California. It is thought that he arrived in the U.S. sometime during the 1850's or 1860's. He married Anne ALGERS-DEAS who was born April 1, 1847 on Faial Island. She died in Sawyers Bar in 1927 and is buried in the Protestant cemetery there. Joseph and Anne ended up in the tiny gold mining community of Sawyers Bar, Calfornia. Their children were Albert, Charlotte (my great great-grandmother), Annie, Jessie, Raymond, Amy, Esther, Sydnie and Sylvester. Any information about Joseph and Anne would be much appreciated, especially the names of their siblings and even, hopefully, their parents.
