Did you ever look through Saudades da Terra for this info?

Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Y dna Matches between Pico and Flores,
looking for a list of original Flores settlers.

Does anyone know if a list exists of the original settlers of Flores island. I can trace my paternal line directly to Baltazar Vieira born in Pico about 1580, I think he may be descended from Joao Vieira that settled in Pico about 1509. I have 2 Y-dna matches from Flores island one of which the Ftdna software has predicted our common ancestor to be approximately 500 years ago. I suspect my line and theirs trace to Porto Portugal. I also have a hunch both of these two gentlemen's ancestors settled in 1510 on Flores because I have read that a ship full of settlers from the north of Portugal dropped off settlers there in 1510, and there are various other reasons why I think it likely but I won't list at this time. The surnames I am looking for specifically are Vieira, Goncalves and Anes. If anyone is aware of a cited document with the names of the original settlers to Flores please let me know.--
