No, not everything is online. I believe the records online stop at 1910/1911 or so. They may have records up to 1915 available now that are not online. I'm not sure. The dispensations are at the Angra archive and those are not online (what exists). There are manuscripts that exist that are not online either.
And if you are looking for crime stories - they don't have the murders and crazy stuff that we have in America. They may not have the "Society" columns either that we see in America. I don't know since I'm not fluent. I don't think you'll find a whole lot of details. They worked hard to put food on the table, went to church, etc. Next time you should email Joao Ventura who helped set up the CCA site. Make an appointment to meet with him. Maybe he has some ideas.
