Jesse,
   I found this Joao Pacheco in my database that is related to my 
husband's maternal grandmother Maria Paixao da Costa born March 27, 1888 in 
Rosario, Lagoa, Sao Miguel.  You may be able to connect to this line at some 
point.  
   The /Diana I noted at the end of the place where an event occurred 
is Diana Silva who has done extensive research in Lagoa and other villages in 
Sao Miguel.

  Hi. I originally made this posting from my other email 
  (pacheco.jess...@gmail.com):

  Hi group. Of my 8 Portuguese Great-Great grandparents, 7 come from
  Lagoa.

  Joao Pacheco is the remaining one and I was wondering if anyone
  possibly knew this family or had any more information. He was born 9
  Mar 1888 to Jose Pacheco and Rosalina Moniz in Nordeste, Sm. He came
  to America in 1902 and married Maria de Andrade in 1906. They had 8
  children.

  I know this is vague but I have no other way to get information. My
  grandfather has never had contact with his father's family. If anyone
  knows how I can find the village possibly that would also help. I just
  don't know where to start with this branch; I also haven't been able
  to find any immigration information.

  Jesse (iggy1...@aol.com)

  I would like to add some additional information about Joao's 
children. 
  Maybe someone in the Fall River/New Bedford Area will know them.

  1. Mary (1907-1997) married John Leandro, had children Dolores, 
Edward 
  J, Richard
  2. Manuel (1909-)
  3. Frank (1910-1974), married Maria de Luz Medeiros, had children 
Robert 
  & Raymond, married Alice Fereirra, had children Barbara and Pauline
  4. Constance (1912-), married a Nardone
  5. John (1914-)
  6. Georgiana "Gina?" (1917-) married Botelho and/or Medeiros
  7. Antone (19178-2008) married Emily Medeiros Soares, had children 
  Deborah, Marjorie, Ronald, Janice
  This is a piece from his obituary which could help identify him:/
  He was Past President of the Diocesan Council of St. Vincent de Paul 
  Society and had received the Top Hat Award. On the local level, he 
was 
  Secretary/Treasurer of the Our Lady of Health St Vincent de Paul 
  Conference. He was the Recipient of the Marion Medal. At Our Lady of 
  Health Church, he was the first Eucharistic Minister, a Collector and 
  Past President of the Holy Name Society. He was the Past President of 
  the Bishop’s Ball and served on its Committee since the origin. He 
was 
  the Master of Ceremonies for the past number of years. He was 
President 
  of the Our Lady of Health Federal Credit Union and a Board of 
Director. 
  He was also the Past Vice President of the Fall River Electric Light 
  Credit Union. Mr. Pacheco was a member of the the Portuguese War 
  Veterans Club and served as its installing officer. In addition, he 
was 
  a member of the Fall River War Veterans Council. He was a Chairman of 
  the Building Committee for the Bishop Connolly High School Drive. A 
  member of the IBEW retirees, he also belonged to the Happy Group 
Seniors 
  and was Treasurer of the Our Lady of the Angels Seniors./

Hi Justin,
I may be wrong and your Pine may be part of a nickname but I know of
no word like this in Portuguese. At the other hand, we have - at least
here in Brazil - a surname PINA. I have some friends POMPEU de PINA.

Hi Cousin Justin,

You'll have to wait to hear from 
  Shirley Allegre as to where the "Pine" came from (Pinheiro comes to mind but 
I 
  don't know if that was correct for this particular family).? The de Mello 
  Pines go back to Antonio de Mello and Constancia de Jesus who I think were 
  married in Ponta Garca.? Not all of the children attached "Pine" after 
  the de Mello.? Only some did.? Shirley's line did it and yet mine 
  didn't.

Hi Steven,

Delfina's translation is Delphinium which is a flower.  In those days women
didn't have surnames many of them carried a 2nd first name from their

Our characteristics and where they ultimately come from may be
somewhat different and have some "foreign influences and mix," but the
evidence of the past 300 years is that the Mello's came from Ponta

  Justin,

  I'll fire up my genealogy program after work and let you know the marriage 
year.  Antonio married Constancia probably in the late 1700s.

  There is no Pinheiro in this line (or none that has been discovered).  I just 
think that pine tree is the literal translation for Pinheiro for some reason.

  This line doesn't go back to England.  It goes to Santa Maria island where 
the records are really deteriorated (sp).  The direct line in my family was 
dark.  My father (when he was younger) had such dark hair that I'd always use a 
black crayon.  He would get very dark in the summer too.  So not all in the 
family are fair.  I also tested his DNA.  This branch is Western Atlantic Modal 
Haplotype - the most common of the most common European grouping out there.

  More later.

I agree that Pinheiro was not probably correct for this family.
There's no reason why they would not have simply used Pinheiro.  Pine
is not at all a Portuguese word.  Given the fair complexion the family
has - based on personal knowledge and the photo online of Joe DeMello
Pine - there has to be some English blood.  Or someone must have left
to America or England to return with the nickname.

It's an interesting question...

  Yep, the Pine is in the mid to late 1800s.  I'd say that there were plenty of 
Mellos in Ribeira Quente too so it would help distinguish them.  I just can't 
remember why they choose Pine.  Shirley probably knows.  It was her branch that 
did it.  I don't think Shirley is on her email right now though.  She'd be all

My mother was a DE MELLO PINE.  My grandfather, Jose "Joe"'s parents were
Antonio de Mello X Antonia Jacintha de Arruda.
My grandfather used the name Joe de Mello until about 1915.  His 
brother-in-law, who lived next door was
Frank Mello.  There were people in both families with the same given name, 
so the mail was sometimes going
to the wrong family.  SO -- my grandfather added on the name PINE. 
I don't know why he picked
that name.  One of my cousin uses DEMELLOPINE.  his brother uses PINE.
Go figure.

Hi JR,

I am well aware of families using nicknames and this is especially
true in Ribeira Quente.  However, I do not know any family that has
incorporated their nickname into their last name.  I know this from
personal knowledge/experience.  The nicknames continue to this day.
The DeMello Pine's for some reason had Pine recorded as their last
name (whereas the Pacheco family did not have "caranguejo" added to
their last name).

It's true there are a lot of DeMello's in the Azores but in a village
the size of Ribeira Quente I doubt there were so many that a nickname
was required - plus, the surname DeMello Pine recorded back through
1825 doesn't seem to me like Pine is just a nickname.  The fair skin,
blonde hair and "un-Portuguese" characteristics of the Pine family
suggests that there may be some English blood.  Ribeira Quente was/is
after all a major fishing port on the island that could have easily
been frequented by foreign sailors.

However, I appreciate your post and think it may very well be true.
But one final question:  why Pine?  It's not Portuguese.  I doubt they
translated Pinheiro to Pine - however it is possible, but I think
highly unlikely. Additionally, Pinheiro was already a common surname
and therefore would not serve well as a nickname.

Alas, the question remains unanswered - maybe forever.  But there may
still an answer out there left to be uncovered.

It is possible that Pinheiro was translated to Pine.  The dictionary gives the 
meaning of pinheiro as pine tree. 
 
 I know of a person whose name was Cunha.  They called themselves Wedge, again 
a literal translation.  
 
You may never know the reason names were changed, added, deleted, or 
translated.  My best guess about my family is that when someone "in authority" 
said that the name they had meant something else here, they agreed.

Ermelinda Delfina were probably given names, i.e. Emmaline Delphinia. 
Family names might have included dos Reis, which would translate into King in

I can only guess.  I'm sure someone else on this list will know and answer your 
question.

Glad I could help.

Thanks again Judi!
 
I found Ermalinda’s obit.  When I found the record of Manuel P. Daniels & Rose 
Silva’s/ Silveira wedding it listed Ermalinda Delfina.   Does Delfina mean King 
in Portuguese or does it have a different meaning?  
 
Thanks,
 
Steven

Ermalinda King Silveira's obit is in the paper dated Feb. 11, 1935 on Page 2.  
He was already deceased, and it listed her address and surviving children 
including Rosa Daniels.  You might also try Mt. Carmel Church.  All the 
funerals were held there.  I was able to get the section and plot number for my 
grandmother's burial in 1942 from the funeral home, so don't forget to check 
with them.  
I searched for Rosa's obit, but no luck.  I did however find one for one of her 
daughters who died at age 29 in 1945, so we know Rosa was still alive in 1945.
Good luck.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: De Mello Pine and Ribeira Quente

2009-07-02 Thread justin.pine

Hi JR,

I am well aware of families using nicknames and this is especially
true in Ribeira Quente.  However, I do not know any family that has
incorporated their nickname into their last name.  I know this from
personal knowledge/experience.  The nicknames continue to this day.
The DeMello Pine's for some reason had Pine recorded as their last
name (whereas the Pacheco family did not have "caranguejo" added to
their last name).

It's true there are a lot of DeMello's in the Azores but in a village
the size of Ribeira Quente I doubt there were so many that a nickname
was required - plus, the surname DeMello Pine recorded back through
1825 doesn't seem to me like Pine is just a nickname.  The fair skin,
blonde hair and "un-Portuguese" characteristics of the Pine family
suggests that there may be some English blood.  Ribeira Quente was/is
after all a major fishing port on the island that could have easily
been frequented by foreign sailors.

However, I appreciate your post and think it may very well be true.
But one final question:  why Pine?  It's not Portuguese.  I doubt they
translated Pinheiro to Pine - however it is possible, but I think
highly unlikely. Additionally, Pinheiro was already a common surname
and therefore would not serve well as a nickname.

Alas, the question remains unanswered - maybe forever.  But there may
still an answer out there left to be uncovered.

Justin

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: De Mello Pine and Ribeira Quente

2009-07-02 Thread justin.pine

Cheri - thanks so much for the post.   Do you know when Antonio de
Mello and Constancia married?   I know that a Manoel DeMello Pine was
in Ribeira Quente back in 1825 and he also married a DeJesus.

I agree that Pinheiro was not probably correct for this family.
There's no reason why they would not have simply used Pinheiro.  Pine
is not at all a Portuguese word.  Given the fair complexion the family
has - based on personal knowledge and the photo online of Joe DeMello
Pine - there has to be some English blood.  Or someone must have left
to America or England to return with the nickname.

It's an interesting question...

2009-07-02 Thread Cheri Mello
JR,

Yep, the Pine is in the mid to late 1800s.  I'd say that there were plenty
of Mellos in Ribeira Quente too so it would help distinguish them.  I just
can't remember why they choose Pine.  Shirley probably knows.  It was her
branch that did it.  I don't think Shirley is on her email right now
though.  She'd be all over this thread!!  I'll give her a call.
