I think I am confused. There are two Sao Sebastiao Churches one is in Ginetes and the other is in Ponta Delgada. It sounds to me like you need to look in Sao Sebastiao in Ponta Delgada.

That was a disappointment and I no longer get my hopes up the way I did that time. Thank you so much for your efforts. I know somewhere I will find them. I will certainly celebrate with the group when I do. :). On Friday, January 10, 2014, Hermano C.

Although I have basic information for him, I can't go back any further than his parents because I don't know which freguesias in ponta Delgada they were from and up to now i haven't found them. John, I will study the link you sent again in more in depth because the dates are off but the Names are similar. I received Domingos' birthdate from his daughter who was my mother in law. >From census records, it appears both Domingo's and his brother Clement, immigrated in different years. Domingo's immigrated in 1885 at age 11. Their parents were Jacinto Machado and Emilia Moniz. I will look Again through the Sao Jose baptisms in search of any one with those parents. They also had a sister named Maria. (She married a Peter F Silva in Boston and had a daughter named Beatrice (Pimentel) born in 1900. ) Margaret, I knew Domingo's had traveled to the Azores and visited his brother in law, Manoel Almeida. Domingo's' wife was Maria Georgina d'Almeida and they married in Boston. When he traveled to see that relative he was already a dentist and she was expecting a baby and didn't travel with him. He sent her a stash of postcards sometimes sending 2 or 3 a day. He mentions seeing a relative named Captain Mello. I also have Maria Georgina's mother's passport which shows Maria Georgina's parents were from the Sao Jose parish of Ponta Delgada. To me there is some mystery that I may never solve with Domingo's because my mother in law always told us he was raised by the Jesuits. Apparently, he had a "guardian angel" who helped him get an education. He was able to get into Tufts University and become a dentist. I have his graduation picture and certificate. He was married during the time he was in dental school. But I just could not find his birthplace in order to trace the family. I also tried learning which Jesuits in the Boston area would have raised him. Thank you so much for helping me- Maria Elena On Jan 5, 2014, at 10:59 AM, JR <[email protected] <javascript:_e(%7b%7d,%20'cvml',%20'[email protected]');> > wrote: Are you sure about the birth date for Domingos?

His name was Domingo's Moniz Machado; nor his brother "Clem". Must be Clemente (?) Moniz Machado. Their parents were Jacinto Machado and mother was Emilia Moniz Machado. Thanks to this group for posting the link for the Portuguese newspapers housed at the Dartmouth library. I stumbled on their sister, Maria M "Marshall" sister of Clemente Machado. I knew they had a sister but had no idea how to find her until I could find the parents. It was exciting to actually find her. For years I've been searching for the 2 brothers to take the line back. I think this is a dead end but I'm not giving up. Every time a new parish was posted on the CCA, I thought Aha! This is going to be the one. But sadly it was not. Now I'm going to go through each parish again to the years before and after their supposed birth years. Are there any other records from Sao Miguel that are not on the CCA? Any ideas where I might find where in Sao Miguel they were from? All his document just say Sao Miguel. Domingo's birthdate is 8 February 1874; Clemente born 9 Feb 1869 and I only have the death date of the sister, Maria M Marshall who died 8 August 1954. All three died in Boston. Any ideas? Thanks.
