Hello Marge,
If his second wife's name was Maria Garcia & they were married on July 25,
1899 in New Bedford (both from Sao Miguel) then his marriage record at NEHGS
shows his mother's name as Anna Isabel and father "unknown". The Priest that
married them was A.G. S. Neves. His age is 25 on this record so that would
put his DOB at 1874. The record has his name as Pedro do Rego.
Yeah...found his first marriage too. May 11, 1895 in New Bedford. He married
Margarida Arruda (both living in New Bedford). His age 22 and her's 21 &
both from Sao Miguel. Again, father shown as "Unknown" but mother is shown
as Anna I. G. this time. Priest that married them was G.S. Mesquito. His
name on the record is shown as Pedro de Rego.
If you need information the spouses let me know and I'll get that for you.
Hope I've helped at least a little.
Regards,
Michelle

Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Peter REGO b. Sant Cruz Lagoa 10 January 1874
Dear List members,
If while any of you are searching the baptism records for Santa Cruz ,
Lagoa ,Sao Miguel and you see the name Pedro de REGO [ Peter Rego] would you
please let me know what the record says?
I have been searching for the names of his parents to no avail.
I have the following from various records here in the states.
His draft Reg Card New Bedford, MA states he was b. 10 Jan 1874. His name on
this record Pedro do REGO.
A conversation with the priest at Our lady of Mt Carmel, New Bedford, MA
confirms his birth as recorded on his son John's baptism record as Santa
Cruz, Lagoa, Sao Miguel. His parents name not listed.
He emigrated in 1895 and was naturalized in 1904 according to the 1920
census New Bedford, MA.
The Naturalization records on Ancestry.com shows he was naturalized 25 June
1905. He was living in Fall River at the time. It also confirms his date of
birth as 10 Jan 1874. It does not give his date of arrival.
His death record 21 Oct 1942 New Bedford, mA., states -names of father &
mother CANNOT be learned.
I have his marriage date and the information on all his children.
Unfortunately I DO NOT read Portuguese and current problems with my eyesight
makes it even more difficult to try to read the records now available from
Lagoa that are on line.
Should anyone run across this name I would very much appreciate knowing what
the record says.
Thank you
Marge [Howes] PERRY
