Hi, I found the passport and have searched Feteiras and have found no marriage record. Perhaps I am reading the passport record wrong but it looks like Feteiras to me. Any other suggestions?

To get to Hawaii, you had to sail out of Ponta Delgada on Sao Miguel island. I've typed the proper spelling (minus the diacritic over the "a" in Sao) and you should spell it that way in your genealogy program. The Passaportes for the 1890s will tell you the freguesia. Emigration OUT of Ponta Delgada exists on the CCA site (passaportes). http://www.culturacores.azores.gov.pt/ig/passaportes/Default.aspx Pick Ponta Delgada from the drop down menu. Pick the range that covers 1895. Start the hunt!
