Thank you all, Doug, that is my plan, that takes time! I was just "jumping" from generation into generation, backwards, just to see where I could go in the "backbone" of the tree, sem olhar para os "galhos" but I know I have a lot of work! Some of the branches I "caught" along the way were pure luck ;-)
Thank you Nancy, I will eventually some day, "dig" the hole Island I am aware of that, we might cross in to Cabral one day, I have it from both Paternal and Maternal side. Cheri, I can see that now for my unhappiness, and yes I already know that I will have to read some of those books. I also read that Velho Arruda wrote a good one, being from Santa Maria, maybe he got those books in better conditions, I don't know. I am curious when did these books deteriorated, I can tell you one thing, humidity in these Islands can be a "killer" for just about anything you can think of, specially electronics! Thank you Manoel, I will consider that in the future to see if I connect there! Obrigado Hermano, é curioso esse "material" andava no CCA e eu nao sabia! Muito Bom!! It seams that he got the same doubts I have, I know I wont find proof considering the deterioration of he books, but I still have hope in the birth records to get more info as they go back a little bit more than the marriages!
