I have tried to locate online either some place from which I can purchase a copy of the book Familias da Ilha das Flores or else some library that has a copy I could request... But no luck yet on either score. Not even the Family History Library Catalog seems to list it...
I did locate on a cached page from the Azores Regional Government website an e-mail address for the author, who apparently had a role with a government agency, but the current version of the website no longer carries his name or that government e-mail address, so I have to assume he is no longer in that role and so the e-mail address is no longer effective. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I could obtain a hard copy, or are they all gone and I just need to wait for the e-book version to get published (and in the meantime rely on the kindness of strangers for look-ups)? So, pending my getting hands on a copy of the Familias book, I do need to ask for someone to do me the kindness of looking up a couple whom I located in the Lajes das Flores section of the Casais das Flores e do Corvo book, and letting me know in particular the names and birth dates of any children they had: José Francisco Coelho [n. Lomba, Lajes das Flores, f.º de Manuel FurtadoCoelho e de Isabel Furtado] c. 1844.09.01 c. Ana da Trindade [f.ª de Manuel Furtado Lourenço e de Maria da Trindade]. -- from Casais, p. 107.
