Your original post: <<my grandfather lived in St Michael's in the Rosario parish of Lagoa.Which port would be the closest to that parish for them to leave from. >> I answered that.
Then you switched gears and talked about arrival: <<They came to the usa and arrived in New Bedford Ma>> That post had no question attached to it so no one needed to respond. Now you are talking about passports to a thread where you are talking about Azorean records and American records. I have no idea which passport records you seek: the American or the Azorean passaportes. It sounds like you are new to genealogy. You need to start by getting a genealogy software program (Legacy Family Tree has their Standard Edition for free and RootsMagic has their Essentials free) and document everything, creating a timeline for your ancestors. You will create the timeline backwards, by beginning with the last event that occurred in their life: death/burial. A how-to can be found on the Azores GenWeb here: https://goo.gl/xYgVpZ Do some of that stuff and post here on what you've done and what you need clarification on.
