Monica, Thank you for the generous offer. As Cheri Mello mentioned in an earlier email to me (see below), the DNA doesn't show a connection; but that far back, it doesn't mean I am not related to the Paiva line. I was following up on an email from my cousin Maria Sue Luna (see below) to Nelia, stating that a match is likely on Maria's (our) Martins Correia Bettencourt line. If you are willing to share info, I gladly would examine a paper trail. While not proficient in Portuguese, I am able to pick out a lot of the key info in genealogy documents. Deb
When I searched for ancestors, I found friends!

We are probably a match as well. To confirm a paper trail, you will need to locate information/dates before 1911. Is that an issue for you? Hope to hear from you. Monica :) On Saturday, December 7, 2019 at 11:52:30 PM UTC-5, DBM wrote: Thanks Cheri ! When I searched for ancestors, I found friends!

Nelia did not turn up on your match list. You can match on paper and not with DNA. Sometimes 2 individuals do not inherit enough DNA to be reported as a match. Hope this helps, Cheri On Fri, Dec 6, 2019 at 9:12 AM 'Deb McCabe' via Azores Genealogy <azo...@googlegroups.com> wrote: Hi Luna, Does Nelia match with me? (Asking here because I don't have her kit #). If so, it should be the Martins side of your tree.Deb Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android On Thu, Dec 5, 2019 at 8:11 PM, lunamarc<luna...@gmail.com> wrote: Hi Nelia, I have the wrong line but now that I have narrowed it down. We are most likely related on my Martins/Correia/Bettencourt line. Let me know if either of these come up on your tree.

I believe we are related through my Grandmother who still has cousins in Feitera with connections to Capelas based on some hints I found. I have yet to upload this cousin's info to Gedmatch and I'm going to do it now.

If you have any info on your parents if they lived in Capelas then I can ask him about your family etc and he may be able to remember something about your grandparents.... my grandfather was born in 1913 so your ancestors are younger which would probably mean that my father may remember them. In Capelas everyone pretty much knew one another. Regards, Nelia.

Below I will provide some names that i found in an obituary for my grandfather. While I do not have too much information, I was wondering if anyone on this forum could help me find out any information about my grandfather and his relatives. Specifically links to databases, pictures, records, etc. Anything that will help me complete a picture of where I came from. Any assistance anyone could provide would be greatly appreciated. I joined just now in hopes to learn more about myself and the people who proceeded me. Thank you. This is what I have for names: Manuel P. Melo: Born in Teatro Novo, Capelas, St. Michael, Azores, he was the son of the late Joao and Margarida (de Paiva) Melo and the brother of the late Maria dos Anjos Paiva Medeiros and Jose Paiva Melo. Again, not much but if there is anyone out there who may know something please share! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Azores Genealogy" group.
