FHL = Family History Library (for those unfamiliar with the acronym). I have a print out of all the Azorean film created by the Genealogy Society of Utah/ LDS/ Family Search. Over time, I have made annotations to it, back in the day when chats were big. So I have a small list of discrepancies. I'm sure it's not complete. But for those who have tried to find a film for their village and can't do so, maybe this will help.
Sao Miguel island Bretanha: Earlier books were unfilmed and are not at the archives. However, an index exists by Vicar Andre de Sousa Dias and that is at the archive. Fenais da Ajuda = Fenais de Vera Cruz (old and new names) Joao Bom: Some can be found in Bretanha. The early people can be found in Mosteiros. Remedios: Some can be found in Bretanha Sao Roque: See Rosto de Cao Terceira island Casa de Ribeira: See Praia da Vitoria Feteira: See Ribeirinha Raminho: See Altares Sao Mateus: Film 1518165, item 3, baptisms section 1640-1690: Page 58 begins with the marriages of 1641-1690. The catalog states that marriages there don't begin until some other time. Rosemarie, do you know where to report FHLC discrepancies? Sao Jorge island Ribeira da Areia: See Norte Grande This is all I have and I'm sure this list is not comprehensive. -- Cheri Mello Listowner, Azores-Gen Researching: Vila Franca, Ponta Garca, Ribeira Quente, R. das Tainhas, Achada --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected].
