Adair, what a beautiful family picture! Rosemarie From: Adair Borba Sent: Saturday, February 22, 2014 8:13 AM To: azores@googlegroups.com Subject: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Catholic Church in Cambridge, MA
Thank you Karen, I think Jennie(Eugenia) came from Sao Jorge, as I understand it Jennie met Manuel Borba after arrival married in 1875 in Rhode Island, migrated to Hayward, California in 1880. I think she had a brother Manuel Silva in Northern California. They settled in Sebastopol, had many children there, and is buried there. The only source document I have is attached below, which is attached to her parents in my tree, and I cannot read...additionally this is a picture of Jennie/Manuel and their Borba children. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- For options, such as changing to List, Digest, Abridged, or No Mail (vacation) mode, log into your Google account and visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/Azores.

I can tell you right off though that Jennie is not a name I have in my database. I am assuming you don't know where in the Azores they came from as this would help greatly. Without a location, I can only say that I do not have any Silvas named Jennie or Soloman and none of the Silvas I know settled in Rhode Island. My Silvas all came to Cambridge, MA and then my grandfather moved on to Visalia, California. So sorry I can't be of more help.

(I lived in Cambridge but not being Catholic I don't know the names of any churches that would be of interest to you.) - Shirl - ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: kmh4sch <kmh4...@aol.com> I am looking for the church that my grandparents likely attended when they lived in Cambridge from 1921 to about 1924. I'm guessing it was probably East Cambridge, as that was where many other ethnic groups first settled. My grandparents, Joe Machado Silva (1894) and Maria Augusta Silva (1897) came from Angra, Terceira to the area in May of 1921. Joe had several brothers and sisters that lived in Cambridge. I do not have an address. Their first born child, Paul L. Silva was born there. I know that because I found him on the Massachusetts birth Index on Ancestry.com. I have the book, volume and page and I am requesting a copy. I would like to also get the church record. Paul only lived a few months and died in 1922 (again I found him on the Massachusetts Death index and have requested the civil record). Knowing where he was baptized and buried would be great. My grandparents left Cambridge for California in 1924 so it must have been so hard to leave their first born there. -- For options, such as changing to List, Digest, Abridged, or No Mail (vacation) mode, log into your Google account and visit this group athttp://groups.google.com/group/Azores.
