I was just thinking about people living in the Azores traveling between the islands and wondering how common that travel took place. Recently I found that one of my greats parents may have lived on Faial in Pedro Miguel. I notice when people are doing research, especially, those who are new at end don’t take into consideration that one family member left one island to marry another on different island. My surname is Medeiros and I have a friend also a Medeiros. My most recent Medeiros side is from Fenais de Ajuda, Riberia Grande and Arrifes, Sao Miguel but my friend’s Medeiros line is from Terceira. So we just dismissed any common ancestors at least in recent times. Anyway I found this very interesting about the death records. George Medeiros
