My family started emigrating from the Azores in the 1870's, finding their way to Falmouth, Mass where they were one of the founding families for a local Holy Ghost Society. My interest in family genealogy made me curious about why they emigrated at all and why they ended up in Falmouth. It led to a book I self-published in 2012 that may be of interest to some of this group because of its unorthodox perspectives. Of more interest, perhaps is a collection of turn of the century (19th/20th) postcards on my website amerazor.com.
