Where did you get the marriage information from? Did they marry in a church? If it were a Catholic church then perhaps the record from the church will give additional information as to which village they were from.
Rick From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mary Pimentel Wheeler Sent: Sunday, July 9, 2017 5:49 PM To: Azores Genealogy Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] 1872 Boston marriage of Maria Margarida (of Sao Jorge) to Manoel J. Souza (of St. Michaels) Looking for the following people - do any of you have them in your tree? Maria Margarida - Born Sao Jorge ca. 1847. Married to: Manoel J. Souza - born in St. Michaels ca. 1842 They married in Boston on 30 Nov 1872. He was 20 years old, she was 25. Marriage certificate list HIS parents as Manoel & Florinda, and HER parents as Joseph & Elizabeth. Since I don't have frequesias for either Maria Margarida or Manoel J. Souza, I thought I'd start here to see if anyone has them, before I start searching village by village. Also - quick question. I've not seen "Elizabeth" as a given name in the Azores - does anyone know if that is an anglicized version of a Portuguese name? That might help me find her mother if I need to start searching CCA.
