Hi Lester, I just looked at the record on the CCA site Page 59 number 705 4 Jun 1904 Jose Pedro Tavares son of Jose Pedro and Helena? I can’t make the second name of mother out. Single age 22. The rest is a bit fuzzy for me to make out but it does say he is going to the US and I am not sure of the ships name. If you can make it out you may find him on the passenger list arriving. http://www.culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/PASSAPORTES-PDL-1903-1905/PASSAPORTES-PDL-1903-1905_item1/P61.html He used Jose Pedro Tavares on the passport and when he got her he became known as Pedro Tavares. This was not his brother Jose Tavares.

I am researching Pedro Tavares born 1883 in Agua de Pau, San Miguel and have been unable to find him in the passport files or ship passenger lists that are available. According to the 1930 US Census, he arrived in the US in 1904 (his wife provided that information to the census enumerator). His older brother Jose was born in AdP in 1882. He received a passport 5 June 1904, but I think he did not use it. Jose was married in AdP in November 1906, had a large family, and presumably never left. It seems to me that if Pedro was going to leave the Azores, he would have gotten a passport with his brother and likely travelled together. Thanks!

I have been looking through the "Registo de Passaportes" for a person who left the Azores in 1904-1905. If his name does not appear in the register, can I assume that he left through other, unconventional means? 3. There was a passport for an older brother issued in 1905 and probably not used by him. Is it likely that his younger brother used this passport to travel to the United States? Thanks!-- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com.
