I have the following information. American name is Manuel Rose. Immigrated in Dec 1892 on the SS Vega; born on 9 September 1874 Santa Luzia do Pico (this information was listed in his Alien registration file). I found a passenger list from Dec 1892 that lists a Manoel de Rosa but have been unable to find actual immigration records. I was always told the name was changed from Rosa to Rose. After 1920, he shows up exclusively as Manuel Rose in the census records. However, I finally found the 1910 census records that list him as Manuel Rose Silveria. In that record his wife is listed as Lucinda D Rose Silveria (her maiden name appears to be Rodriques). She was born 22 April 1886 (same island).
I also have a very old handwritten family tree that lists Manuel's parents as Sesje Rosa and Delsenia Josesa and Lucinda's parents as John Rodrigues and Louisa Rosa, but not sure how accurate that is. I did find the handwritten baptism lists online but can not read the handwriting. Any advice or suggestions are appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Azores Genealogy" group.
