I’m traveling to Flores, my home island, in late August with my cousin Deanna.  
We hope to find other cousins still living there.  Our direct ancestors left in 
1880, but thanks to Cheri and Rosemarie’s super workshop in Salt Lake City I’ve 
now got a huge pre-1910 family tree.  They were fertile and healthy!  Does 
anyone have advice or tips about getting access to local church records in the 
islands?  I have a contact in the village, but I don’t think she’s much of a 
church goer.  Do I contact the priest directly?  Or do I have to contact the 
diocese first?  Or...??  If we can just bridge a generation or two I think 
we’ll find we’re related to just about everyone there!
