Repost for Terri Hill: I am researching my ancestry from Terceira. My grandfather, John Leonardo (way too common a name for the Azores!) was born I believe Oct. 13, 1886--his mother's name was Souza (another way too common name for the Azores!). John immigrated to Massachusetts in 1916; John died on Catalina Island in Los Angeles County, California in 1954. I'm not finding anything on John or his parents other than his naturialization certificate and census material from Tulare County, California--can anyone suggest a direct Terceira site I can look at? John's wife was Maximilliana Perry whose mother was Helen Augustirko or Helen Bettencourt Perry born 1878 also from the Azores and settled in Massachusetts. Hope to hear from someone. Thanks.
