Hi Karen, >
My grandparents also attended St. Anthony's church, now on the corner of Cambridge Street and Cardinal Mederois ( Way or Street). The original old wooden church was across on that street a little further down. My dad and his brothers and sisters went there as well. My grandmother was Deolinda (Augusta) Souza and was born in 1882, also from Angra, Terceira. I was wondering if you had any more information about your grandmother who's last name was Augusta. I have been trying so hard to find out how many brothers and sisters she had and there names. I know she had a brother Joseph and a brother Bernard. My Dad is now 86 (soon to be 87 next month) and was the baby of 8 kids in his family and the last older brother he has left has dementia, sadly. My dad doesn't remember any family history to tell of. I was only 12 when my grandmother died in 1972 and back then I didn't have the bright idea of asking her about her family and growing up in the Azores. She spoke mostly Portuguese so I never really had a conversation by myself with her. My aunt would translate. But I loved her just the same and now want to know all about her (when it's too late!). Just wondering if there might be a connection I could work with! Thanks!
