It is a multi volume work and the last time I checked you could order it (a facsimile edition) from Guarda - Mor in Lisbon for about $2,500.00 plus shipping. I thought it was available as a searchable data-base on line though. I own a copy. It is invaluable for Azoreans who can link to an early settler with documented descent from one of the families in the Nobiliário(not too many). I hope this helps.
Also, for those who live in the New Bedford area, the Casa da Saudade library has a full set in their reference section. Good luck!

I know it's in Portuguese. I've found this online, which appear to be scanned pages of various versions: http://purl.pt/12151/1/ I've also found part of it translated to English, but only for one family: http://www.amazon.com/Noble-Familiesof-Portugal-ABREU-Pontes/dp/0806354070/ref=sr_1_6?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1366466235&sr=1-6&keywords=Noble+families+of+portugal But is this one of those rare folios only in Portuguese libraries? Any word on if any of teh other families will be released in English? (I'm specifically looking for Athayde/Ataíde) Cheers J John Athayde [email protected] www.boboroshi.com (personal) www.meticulous.com (work) www.rotoscope.com | www.juniperlane.com (music) -- For options, such as changing to List, Digest, Abridged, or No Mail (vacation) mode, log into your Google account and visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/Azores.
