The name most certainly must be "Algarvio". I have in my database a few variations of that name; do Rego Algarvio, de Medeiros Algarvio, Tavares Algarvio, Pacheco Tavares Algarvio, Nunes Algarvio, to name a few. Although most of mine are from Lagoa, they can be found elsewhere. Sorry that I don't have you Antonio Pacheco Algarvio.

Rats! My post from last night disappeared. Trying again... JR, I forget sometimes that you all haven't come along on this journey with my for the last 25 years. I originally thought the family added Algarvia (Algrava, Algarva, etc.) to coincide with my great grandfather's escape to California. In 1906, he was diagnosed with leprosy and marked for deportation to Molokai. He was smuggled out of Hawaii with the help of family. His family used the surname Smith and some of the others began using Algrava/Algarva. My whole theory was blown when a cousin produced a copy of Antonio Pacheco's Santo Antonio Society membership certificate. It's dated 1903 (well before the leprosy date) and his name was given as Antonio Pacheco Algarvia. I will go through the1856-1863 in Algarvia and see if they pop up. If not, I will then determine my ancestors were pranksters that loved sending me on a wild goose chase ;) On Sunday, August 10, 2014 10:39:27 AM UTC-7, JR wrote:Of course, you just gave cited a clue by using the name Algarvia. It is possible they went and lived in Algarvia and thus the nickname Algarvia. I have ancestors that lived in three places. It depends on the circumstances of what lands they owned, or where the work was. So try looking in Algarvia for Antonio and all baptisms between 1856 and 1860! -- 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.
