Gloria, You have to attach the file as a jpg or pdf. Not a link to your desktop on your personal computer. We can't get into it.
Also, what is the year of immigration? What freguesia & island are your ancestors from? Yes, you can possibly get more information with the Alien Registration. You can get the form that they filled out with lots of information. When requesting a death certificate, you use the date on the death certificate. The tombstone could be wrong. I've seen some that they have tried to carve over to correct the error. Hopefully the state you are researching has a death index. If Ancestry doesn't have it, try FamilySearch or www.deathindexes.com Cheri Mello Listowner, Azores-Gen Researching: Vila Franca, Ponta Garca, Ribeira Quente, Ribeira das Tainhas, Achada -- 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.
