Eric,
Thank you, Thank you so much. I thought I would never find her or her family.
I cannot tell you how much this means to me....
I have never heard the name CEREJA or TRIGUEIRO before. Are they an Azorean
names? Anybody out there with these names? If so please contact me.
Are we related some how? Where do you live? I am here in Merced, CA. Someone
wrote a while back that a lot of Flores people came here and settled in this
area. I think this is true as many of the obits show this.
I am so happy.
Thank you again,
Beverly Avilla Marcelo

Beverly,
Brick Wall, no more! By following Deolinda's sister Catherine, I located her
husband obit, then used his birthdate and origin in Flores to locate his
baptism in Lajedo. That was done by
looking for a similar name in the Flores e Corvo marrige book. Silvestre
Antonio Serpa, had the same name as his grandfather. Taking the guess that they
are from the same town
I located Deolinda's baptisn record on the CCA site. Then used the marriage
book to build the tree. I already had some of the ancestors in my files from
work on my Vieira family and a
friends Xavier and Novo families from the area. So here are your people:

I've become envious of the "Ponta Garca Gang" and the "Cabral Travassos Country
Club" and their good fortune in finding cousins. So I hereby establish the
"Flores Genealogy and Drinking Society". We Flores people are not so fortunate
as our more easterly "cousins". Flores was subject to the plunderings of
Pirates and Privateers which took a toll on our ancestors and their
institutions. According to historical accounts, Flores was attacked by
Privateers in the mid 1600's who burned every church on the Island. As a result
most records before the late 1600's were lost. Even the records on neighboring
Corvo go back earlier, to the early 1600's, as I recall.
The earliest documented marriage that I have discovered among my ancestors was
that of Manoel Pimentel to Isabel de Freitas, Nov 26, 1692, Santa Cruz, Flores
who were my 4G Grandparents (He had been married previously, in the 1680's as I
recall). His parents were Domingos Nunes and Marianna Fraga, date and place of
birth unknown although it was probably Santa Cruz, Flores. I would venture a
guess that Marianna was related to Diogo das Chagas, whose mother was also a
Fraga. Her parents were Domingos Fernandez and Catarina de Freitas.
How about it, any cousins out there with these same ancestors?
