Faria is in my ancestry line from Pedro Miguel, Faial. Sam (Mazatlán, MX)
From: Cheri Mello Sent: Thursday, December 20, 2018 4:35 PM To: Azores Genealogy Subject: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Modern spelling of Ferias Faria rhymes with Maria. Frias is only 2 syllables, I think. I don't think I know anyone with that surname though. Yeah, standardizing the database is lots of fun when the records have misspellings! Hope someone has an answer for you.

"Ferias" is the way it is spelled in some of the records. For example: Left page, top, 4th line down http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-PV-FURNAS-B-1860-1869/SMG-PV-FURNAS-B-1860-1869_item1/P161.html I've also seen it spelled "Frias". I think it is a different surname from "Faria" but I'm not 100% sure either. I just want to normalize the spelling of the name in my database.
