HI Eaim, The Azorean government has digitized and made available the records of all 9 islands up to about 1910-1911 or so. It's called the Centro de Conhecimento dos Acores, or CCA for short. Their web site has no English interface and is a little cumbersome to use. Many of us use tombo.pt as a portal to the CCA. He has a British flag to make navigation easier and links right back to the CCA. tombo.pt English: http://tombo.pt/en Stay in the left navigation pane and drill down, or here's the direct link: http://tombo.pt/en/f/vls04
You should also consider testing your DNA. The Sizzling Summer Sale should be in June or July. Happy hunting!
