JR, Regarding the Sao Miguel passaportes....I know that some of the missing ones were NOT missing in the 1980s, when Bob De Mello did his passengers to Hawaii book. He extracted passengers from the 1890s and that book is missing. Also, Roberta Ingram sent me a link for passengers who left Sao Miguel in the late 1770s, some 1800s and went to Brazil. Someone had those books and extracted the information from them. And probably forgot to return them. I hope someone finds them one day and returns those books to the archive. They have more information in then to other locations that weren't extracted.
Didn't a few of the Azoreans wander over to New Zealand as well? Probably from Australia?
