My Uncle right now has major health issues that my Aunt is trying to deal with. She tried to give me what she had, but it was on my Grandmother and not my Grandfather. They thought I had it because my Dad was with me, but I went through everything I didn't see any paperwork regarding Marianno. I thought my Grandmother would had given everything to my Uncle when she came back here with him in 1951 or 1953. She was going to try and ask my Dad's cousin, Padre Anton from Ribeira Grande if he could find something, but he's not well himself being 85 and he is on my father's maternal side. Most of my father's paternal side has passed over there and only cousins left here who I haven't seen since I was a child so that isn't helping. According to my Uncle and my Dad when he was living, it was my grandfather Antonio Furtado son of Marianno who came to the US, but nothing on Marianno coming here. He did tell me that only his Aunt Marianna and Uncle Jose stayed there, but then his father went back and remained till he died in 1945. All their children came here or Canada. He said the parents came in the early 1900's went back and then some came again 1919/1920. I know jumping around is hard, but I think it's because it seems cousins married within the families, so we seem to be all interrelated especially from the same town, don't you think? Linda

Once I find the first record it should be easy to take it back and find a connection. This CCA passport information confirms that I am looking in the right place. Have you been able to get any more information about Marianno? I think you said your aunt an uncle had his marriage certificate that might give us more information. Also do you have any idea as to when he traveled from the Acores? Maybe I can get lucky on the CCA website.

Maria Therisa Tavares 1734-1762. See attached. Could Maria Therisa Tavares be a sibling to Jose Tavares? Jose Borges Tavares m. Mariana Francisca and their child Joao Borges Tavares m. Monica Jacinta de Jesus Ferreira Medeiros de Paiva dos Santos Faria. My Borges line dropped the Tavares on my mother's paternal side, but added Giesta to Borges though my mother never used Giesta, but her brother did. Could this be a connection to Charlotte as well? On my de Sousa's line-see attached, the Tavares again was dropped, but both sides had de Sousa. Caloura was added later to de Sousa on my father's maternal side, but never brought down Caloura either. I need to update those lines since I got more information going back to the 1600's.

I spent most of the time looking for the birth of a Jose born Feb 22 1879 but came up empty. What I have found tonight is the passport record of your great grandfather Jose Tavares Ferreira, the link below should take you to the CCA site and the record It is image 00000066. From what I was able to read it has a date of 23 Apr 1881, Jose Tavares Ferreira son of Jose Tavares Ferreira and Joanna Maria., age 38, married from Ribeira Grande NS Estrela, a stone mason, wife's name Maria Augusta, age 33, and it looks like Manuel 11 months Just 3 traveled in the party. It also has the ship Suffok. When I get back to the FHC I am going to see if I can find the birth of Manuel. http://pg.azores.gov.pt/drac/cca/biblioteca_digital/PPDL1875-1883/PPDL1875-1 883_item1/P67.html Richard Francis Pimentel Epping, New Hampshire, USA Researching Bretanha, Ribeirinha, Ribeira Grande, Achade Grande, and Ponta Delgada, Sao Miguel, Acores for, Pimentel (Costa), Carvalho, Teixeira, Rocha No virus found in this incoming message.
