This is not much to go on, but for now, it is all I have thus far. According to his obit, Manuel F. Perry, Jr. b. abt. 1905 Lagoa, Sao Miguel d. 1987 Fairhaven MA. He married a Virginia Souza in the US. His parents are listed as Manuel F. Perry and Mary Rosario Ventura, both probably born abt. 1880. The parents came to the US in 1910 with their children Manuel, Joseph and John according to census records. Their first child, Charles, was born in US was born in New Bedford MA in Jan. 1912, then Mary "Lucy", and Virginio in 1916. I have the family in 1920 and 1930 census records. I am trying to find their ship's manifest and where exactly in Sao Miguel parents came from. I am also trying to find death records (so I can get obits, of course) for parents probably in the New Bedford area. I have birthdates for children b. in US. Do NEGHS records go to 1915 now? as a couple of these kids were born between 1910-1915 and that might give me more info other than Azores of where the parents were born.
