Emil, The Jose Furtado Dutra born April 25, 1899 was my uncle by marriage. He came to the US in 1920 and married my aunt, Mary Elizabeth Lewis (Luis). They had no children, but my widowed mother and I lived with them. They also helped raise some other children as well. His sister Rose also came to the US, not sure when. She lived near New Port, RI and in her later years wintered in Florida where here daughters and son live. Rose married a man named Woodson. My uncle's other brother Antonio came to the US in the 60's as an older man to be with his daughters. His daughter Rose had come to the US in the 50's with her husband, Antonio Souza and two sons and they lived in California near us. His daughter Maria came when he did and she never married. Antonio came first to the East and then came to California. Another brother, Joao was a half brother. My Uncle Joe sent for Joao's two sons, Manuel and Frank during the time of the volcano in the late 50's. Their sister Maria came to the US later with her husband and two children and eventually Joao and his wife Maria also came to the US and lived here in Ca near us. I am very close to this family and am in contact with them regularly. We consider ourselves related even though we are not blood related. My Uncle Jose Furtado Dutra had two cousins, Jose Garcia and Joao Da Rosa (later americanized to Rose). I have early pictures of them together, but I am not sure if the pictures where taken here or in the Azores. They may have even come to the US together. There was also a Moitoso family that would visit us the were related to my Uncle Joe. I don't remember the husband's name, but the wife was Maria, of course and sons were Frank and Manuel. The whole family came from the Faial in the 60's also. Oh and by the way, I also have Vargas relatives from Almoxarife. Mary Ann In a message dated 7/18/2011 9:16:44 A.M.

Maybe we don't post as often??? In the Bay Area there is a bunch of us! Hopefully, you can connect with a cousin through this group. That has been one of the benefits of this group for me. The other is learning about the unique research skills and resources needed to research the Azores genealogy. So far all of my knowledge of our ancestors has come through cousins researching the same families. Don't forget to check all the neighbors in the census. The immigrants tended to migrate together and settle near each other. Good Luck!

Is there a active Portuguese club of some sort for the Northwest states as most all posting I read are coming from east coast area and I do not hear "Ellis Island" or Northwest mentioned much?? If not this is what I know about my grandparents and great grandparents. I believe his birth records there have been destroyed by fire as I read the church in Saoal burned to the ground??? Grandfather: Antonio Rosa Furtado (possibly a Jr.?) born 1892 Island of Faial (maybe little town of Saoal), Azores I read the church ( in Saoal) that his records were in burnt down and they lost a lot of informtion. Immigration - 1910 via Ellis Island (Ellis Island has write up and picture on wall of him) to Turner, Calif. Died 1971 Santa Cruz, Ca. His father possibly named Antonio R Furtado also. His Mother is unknown to me. Antonio has a brother named Joseph (S or R?)Furtado who settled in San Francisco Bay area, California prior to Antonio's arrival. There may be a 2nd brother Manuel Furtado who came over later. Such a common name and nothing to connect it too. 1918 Antonio married Mary Elizabeth George - 1893 to 1986. Their children Dorothy Rose, Edward A, and Geraldine May (my mother) . My Grandmother Mary's parents are - Father - Antone F. George 1863 to 1949 , Immigrated in 1887 from Azores (island ?),. Mother is Mary J Martin 1872 to ? Maybe born here in Bay area.?. Married - 1893 in San Francisco area and settled in Half Moon Bay, California.- their children were: Mary Elizabeth, Joseph F, Rose , Minnia (Minnie), Antone Jr. and Clara. I show Antonio and Mary made a trip to Lisbon in 1952. Both Mary and Antonio are buried in Santa Cruz, California where he had retired. I have hit a wall. I am still searching for distant cousins possibly in bay area???
