Hi Everyone
Cheri Mello and I have put together a new document, "Naming Traditions
of Our Azorean Ancestors". It is on the Azores GenWeb site at
http://homepage.mac.com/kmacardoza/Genealogy/naming.html. Hopefully this
article will prove to be helpful to many of you newer researchers. The
article includes information on:
Method of choosing surnames
Female surnames and/or religious names
Variant spellings
Use of da, de, do, das, dos, and d'
Miscellaneous "rules", often broken rules
