I have found her on the 1940 Census and copied that. Now I know for sure she was born in the Azores. Thinking Sao Miguel because someone told be that. Know her birth and death dates from the cemetery. This website you gave me has a cost to it, so have been playing around with it to see if it is worth it or not. So far what they have flagged and I can see is not correct. I am going to Sao Miguel in July. Just to be there, know I do not have enough info to find them or their parents yet. Thank you very much for your help. I will keep searching for info on her and My Great Grand Father. Soon will post other side of family from Santa Maria Azores. Might take a day trip there as well. -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected]. Follow the confirmation directions when they arrive.
