Was it mandatory for all people leaving the islands to "get a passport" or be recorded. Even if it wasn't their first time departing the island. I ask because I have the immigration records for here in the US, but can't seem to find the corresponding record in the Azores passport records, as I have in the past. The person in question is Maria Julia Borges (Maiden name Desouza or Souza though not in the record) age 32-34 who is traveling with son Julio Age 3-5. On the US Immigration record it says they left from São Miguel, June 18th 1905 and arrived in the port of New Bedford, July 1st, 1905.
