Hello all! I just found this group while digging for Azores civil records or information. My great-grandfather Manuel/Manoel de Sousa/Souza was born about 28 February 1868 in ST. Michael/Sao Miguel, Azores, Portugal and immigrated to the US about 16 April 1885/86 at Boston, MA. He was naturalized 5 Nov 1897. According to marriage records, his parents were John Soza and Mary Silva. Knowing that these names are like Smith and Jones in the US, I was hoping for some help locating Portuguese records for the family. He had three sisters, Mary (abt1871-1933), Marion Augusta (abt 1875-1943) and Gertrude Alice (???-aft 1943).
Any help would be most appreciated. Regards, Steve Stevens (Souza) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Azores Genealogy" group.
