Fawn-- I have used the NEPS site for Pico but it also includes Faial. It might give you some the names and dates of some of your ancestors prior to that time. You could also try the Biblioteca Publica e Arquivo Regional da Horta; Rua Conselheiro Medeiros 11; Horta; . 9900-144 Acores They have records up to about 1910. I hope this helps. Carol Silva Warnock
