The first three are already extracted by volunteers and available online here:

http://www.dholmes.com/ships.html

That's a good place to start searching.

There is another from 1893 that is currently being extracted.

Find the rest of these ships in the original records through Ancestry.com or something similar.

The surname "da Rosa" is very common in the middle group of islands, especially on Pico and those on Faial are often originally from Pico. But there are also Rosa lines that are very early residents on Faial and it is said that the first Rosa family did come from Faial with Flemish origins. Sometime in the 1400s or surely 1500s, some or many moved over to Pico where the vast majority named Rosa were living. I can't say they are more abundant on Pico now, since I am basing  what I say on records from 1911 on back. For all I know, most people don't use this name anymore, but I do know many living today named Rosa.

Exactly what you will find for your Rosa line is only going to be revealed by your research.

Good luck.

Good Day,

 

I am hoping for guidance in locating either the passports or ship log for my daRosa/Rosa family that immigrated from Faial to the US in 1893.  The family ended up in Cambridge, MA in the late 1800's early 1900s, yet also lived in Lowell, MA in 1894.  I am not sure through which port they entered.

 

daRosa/Rosa (Surname)

Immigrated 1893

 

husband: Jose/Joseph  born approx. 1872 - Faial

wife: Gertrudes - born 3/28/1872 - Faial

child: Maria (Mary)  born. 8/22/1889 - Faial

child; Marguerite     born  1/7/1892 - Faial

 

Any help you can give to me would be greatly appreciated. 

 

~Peace and Happiness~

 

Fawnie
