Hi group,
I've been out of the loop for awhile now (haven't really been able to do
any research for over two years now) but was wondering if there have
been any developments or changes as far as the status of the records
online and their accessibility has gone. I remember someone had been in
correspondence with the Azores site who said they did plan to eventually
have all the records online, but did not give a date. I also remember
that I had been using a website called etombo who had a great deal of
mainland records online (although their interface was slower than the
Azores site's). I believe etombo also had place holders for Azores
records, or maybe I had been told they would eventually host them? I
could be imagining that though. Familysearch was also in the midst of
some changes and was regularly adding records.
Unfortunately, I still am not really able to get to any family history
centers (and if I remember correctly the one nearest me was having
problems) and so *I was wondering if someone who has stayed up to date
could tell me if there have been any significant breakthroughs with
research methods in the past two years. It would be any major things
since the summer of 2010.* Time was an issue, but the big reason I got
out of researching was because I had done as much as I could with the
resources I had. I would love to be able to get back into it.
If it's relevant, my research revolves around Lagoa and Nordeste in Sao
Miguel as well as undetermined parts of Santa Maria, and then
Massachusetts and tiny bit of California in the 1900s.
Thanks!
