[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Is Lusaweb down?
Hi Freddy, You can certainly run your own server There's a pretty good software package for that: http://www.webtrees.net/. However, this is not a task I'd recommend for anyone that's not an expert computer user (in Linux!!). An alternative would be http://hosting.webtrees.net/ or http://kiwitrees.net/services/hosting/, where they take care of running the server and you take care of your trees (and users - since it's a web app you can allow other family members to edit it - you can set their changes to autoapprove, or subject to your approval). Or simply google for 'webtrees hosting'. You can take a look at my own webtrees instance: http://venturas.org/familytree/. I track mine and my wife's family tree in there. All living individuals are not viewable by guest users, so the starting points (mostly our deceased grandparents) are all under 'Favorites', you may have to scroll down a bit. There's also a 'UK Royal Family' demo site here: http://svn.webtrees.net/demo-stable/ João Ventura http://tombo.pt On Wednesday, 29 January 2014 04:13:42 UTC+1, Cheri Mello wrote: Freddy G, I just typed in www.lusaweb.com and got it to come up.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] genealogy program
Hi, I've used TMG and just upgraded it from a 4 to a 8. I downloaded it. It is confusing, and I have had to call a few times for help, but they are very nice and they explain to you where you need help. I wish I had a book that I could look at and take my time reading . That would be a lot easier for me. I don't know how to use 80 % of the program. I wonder if they sell just the book. I guess I'll have to call . Pat Mello Sylvia snowing in Dartmouth Ma. 16 degrees - Original Message - From: Cheri Mello gfsche...@gmail.com To: Azores Genealogy azores@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, January 28, 2014 11:39:55 PM Subject: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] genealogy program Geez, Rick, thanks for blowing my cover! LOL TMG has the Silver Edition for $34 (download only) or $40 (CD Rom and electronic Users Guide). The Gold Edition is $60 (download only) or $70 (CD-ROM electronic Users Guide). There is a chart that explains the difference: http://goo.gl/IAjTsk The current version is 8.0. To go from 7.0 to 8.0, I paid $30. And when they come up with version 9.0, it will be something along those lines. And it will take them 2 or 3 years to come out with 9.0 I started with TMG 2.5 in the mid-90s. Here it is, almost 20 years later and TMG is up to version 8.0. That's 6 version changes in 20 years, which averages out to you shelling out more money every 3.3 years. I like the filtering. If I'm trying to figure out my Ponta Garca people, so I can run the filter for everyone born in Ponta Garca. Or married in Ponta Garca. Or, or, or. OR, it can be and, and, and. This does take some time to learn. I also like customizing my Pick List. This is the index of people. Mine is set up to show the names, date of birth, date of death, father's name, mother's name, and spouse's name. So, if I'm looking at my 25 Manuel Silvas, I can really see which one I want to work on. There are other fields I can put in too (or take out). I pretty much like it how it comes out to the box. The main screen shows my subject person and all their details/events that happened in their life. So if it was displaying my immigrant ancestor, I would see the birth, immigration, censuses, WW1 Draft, dispensation (I had to make a tag or event for that), marriage(s), children, occupation, death, burial. All of that, right there, in my face. Not hidden behind an icon. I like that. To the right of that screen, I have 3 boxes: His children, his siblings, and his associates. Some people have their Flags open. I toggle that one off and on. I also have a couple of other layouts. I have one for the projector at my genealogy society. That's no big deal, really. I also have one called Project Explorer where I have my Details window open and my Pick List open. This is for me to clean my database. Well, split it. Should have split my dad's Portuguese lines from his American lines years ago before merging it with my mom's. My mom has no Portuguese ancestry and is not related to him that way. Yeah, DNA proved that they are 6th cousins, but it's on my dad's one an only German line way back in the 1740s.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] genealogy program
What about software for Macs. I use Reunion but don't really like it that much. It seems clunky to me and looks dated. I also bought FTM and MacTree but haven't made the switch to one of these yet. I'm leaning towards MacTree because navigation seems more intuitive. Any opinions from Mac users? MaryAnn Santos On Tue, Jan 28, 2014 at 10:37 PM, Cheri Mello gfsche...@gmail.com wrote: GGervais, You'll get people telling you that the best program is the one they are using. That's not going to help you. If you want certain things in a program and can tell us, that may steer you towards one program or the other. The 4 most popular in the PC market are: Family Tree Maker (FTM), Legacy, RootsMagic, and The Master Genealogist. You already know about FTM. Legacy has their Standard Edition (free) and their Deluxe (pay). So download Legacy and play around with it: www.legacyfamilytree.com The Deluxe has about 100 extra bells and whistles. RootsMagic also has a free editions. They call it their Essentials. Download that and play around with it too: www.rootsmagic.com/essentials I don't know how many extra bells and whistles their paid version has. The Master Genealogist (TMG) allows you to explore their full program for 30 days free (and then it locks you out). www.whollygenes.com Download that and play around with it (but make sure you have close to a month to peruse it. Trying to figure that program out 2 days before it expires is like doing a 5000 piece jigsaw puzzle in 1 hour). I go over all 4 programs in a lecture in Salt Lake. Your local genealogy society may have speakers. Request that they find a speaker that can lecture on genealogy software. General overview of the 3 you haven't tried: RootsMagic probably has the smallest learning curve. However, I've read that some people find that they outgrow that program rather easily. However, there's a RM User Group at one of my local genealogy societies, and there are a couple of engineers in there. So it's whatever makes you happy. Legacy has a pleasing user interface and a smaller learning curve. It can be a fairly powerful program, too. It's Source Writer is absolutely fantastic. No other program has a source feature like that. I'd have to look up the cons for Legacy. TMG is the most powerful program out there. They have a bit of a learning curve, but they have tried to do things to make it easier (they have a beginner's mode vs. an advanced mode). Their filtering feature is awesome (you have to practice learning how to use it, though). And it's just about completely customizable too. So you don't like the user interface out of the box, you can change it. When I bought a genealogy program in the mid-90s (I think this was back in the Windows 3.1 days), I had 2 criteria. 1) It had to have a character field long enough to take a city name the length of Ribeira das Tainhas or Vila Franca do Campo. 2) It had to take diacritics. Those accented letters. I wanted the names to be written properly. I wanted José de Mello, not Jose de Mello. Only 1 program on the market could do that at that time. Now, it's a moot point. They can all do that. So if you have any specific concerns for a genealogy program, ask away. Or try all 3 and then ask away. But make fake family and marry yourself to yourself, mess up on dates and make someone born after they died, make someone have a baby out of wedlock, etc. See how each program handles or display these things. Also, depending on where you live, see if there is User Group in your area (all the web sites above have a User Groups section where you can check to see if there is one in your area). We get people dropping in to our group wanting to see what the program is like before they purchase it.

The Mom, Was there supposed to be a link attached? You know the church, since you were looking at those parish records. And if you don't know the church name, you can get it off of the Azores GenWeb.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Legitimate vs Natural
Tomas, Maybe I should have typed the whole thing out instead of pulling it out of context. filho legitimate: baby born in wedlock filho natural: baby's parents not married filho illegitimate: one parent married to somewhere else, as John stated. So the 3 adjectives are modifying the filho (or filha) and that is the context we were discussing (title of the thread: Legitimate vs Natural. Dave wanted to know why the father went missing on some of the records.) Guess I should have kept them with the filho to avoid confusion.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Lorenzo, Antony
Dear Eric Thank you very much I will try and get to Rookwood on weekend and let you know what details I can find on the gravestone. The De Fraga ( or De Frayer as used by my great grandfather in his name during his life and also used as part of one of his daughter's names) does seem significant for the family. Will get back to you as soon as I know more. I very much appreciate your help. regards Jane Kelly On Wednesday, January 29, 2014 3:31:22 AM UTC+11, luiznoia wrote: Jane, If you can get a birthdate from the cemetery, then maybe I can locate his baptism record in Flores.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Identification of child's name baptized in Rosto de Cao
Hello, Thanks a lot! I did not know of this. I'm up in the wee small hours of the morning pouring through it. That's why I love this group, so much information and helpful people, all pretty much working towards the same goal. Even though I am relatively new to this, I feel like this is such an exciting time to study family history. With so many records becoming more accessible through digitization and groups like this that connect people from all over the world, working on one big family history project. I remember my mom working on genealogy back in the early 90's and she would have to wait months and months to receive a document, or a letter telling her no record was found. Great times! You all have a good day.

Thanks for the information. I t's a good day to play around and see what I can find. Appreciate your help. - Original Message - From: Cheri Mello gfsche...@gmail.com To: Azores Genealogy azores@googlegroups.com Sent: Tuesday, January 28, 2014 9:37:10 PM Subject: Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] genealogy program GGervais, You'll get people telling you that the best program is the one they are using. That's not going to help you. If you want certain things in a program and can tell us, that may steer you towards one program or the other. The 4 most popular in the PC market are: Family Tree Maker (FTM), Legacy, RootsMagic, and The Master Genealogist. You already know about FTM. Legacy has their Standard Edition (free) and their Deluxe (pay). So download Legacy and play around with it: www.legacyfamilytree.com The Deluxe has about 100 extra bells and whistles. RootsMagic also has a free editions. They call it their Essentials. Download that and play around with it too: www.rootsmagic.com/essentials I don't know how many extra bells and whistles their paid version has. The Master Genealogist (TMG) allows you to explore their full program for 30 days free (and then it locks you out). www.whollygenes.com Download that and play around with it (but make sure you have close to a month to peruse it. Trying to figure that program out 2 days before it expires is like doing a 5000 piece jigsaw puzzle in 1 hour). I go over all 4 programs in a lecture in Salt Lake. Your local genealogy society may have speakers. Request that they find a speaker that can lecture on genealogy software. General overview of the 3 you haven't tried: RootsMagic probably has the smallest learning curve. However, I've read that some people find that they outgrow that program rather easily. However, there's a RM User Group at one of my local genealogy societies, and there are a couple of engineers in there. So it's whatever makes you happy. Legacy has a pleasing user interface and a smaller learning curve. It can be a fairly powerful program, too. It's Source Writer is absolutely fantastic. No other program has a source feature like that. I'd have to look up the cons for Legacy. TMG is the most powerful program out there. They have a bit of a learning curve, but they have tried to do things to make it easier (they have a beginner's mode vs. an advanced mode). Their filtering feature is awesome (you have to practice learning how to use it, though). And it's just about completely customizable too. So you don't like the user interface out of the box, you can change it. When I bought a genealogy program in the mid-90s (I think this was back in the Windows 3.1 days), I had 2 criteria. 1) It had to have a character field long enough to take a city name the length of Ribeira das Tainhas or Vila Franca do Campo. 2) It had to take diacritics. Those accented letters. I wanted the names to be written properly. I wanted José de Mello, not Jose de Mello. Only 1 program on the market could do that at that time. Now, it's a moot point. They can all do that. So if you have any specific concerns for a genealogy program, ask away. Or try all 3 and then ask away. But make fake family and marry yourself to yourself, mess up on dates and make someone born after they died, make someone have a baby out of wedlock, etc. See how each program handles or display these things. Also, depending on where you live, see if there is User Group in your area (all the web sites above have a User Groups section where you can check to see if there is one in your area).

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] genealogy program
MaryAnn S, Reunion has 80% of the Mac share. I think MacTree (?) was 2nd. Since FTM came out with a Mac version, they are gaining ground. RootsMagic was talking about a Mac version, but I don't know what came of that (I'm not a Mac user). However, if you are Mac user running Parallels, VM Fusion, or another one of those types of programs (Windows simulators?? I don't know what they are called), you can run any Windows program on your Mac.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Identification of child's name baptized in Rosto de Cao
Aaron, The Basic Portuguese Paleography not only has the Surnames and given names but it has a section for Unfamilier and Latin terms. Be sure and pay lots of attention to that section! There are terms to look for in the documents that really help you so that you won’t have to read every line!

I did not know of this. I'm up in the wee small hours of the morning pouring through it. That's why I love this group, so much information and helpful people, all pretty much working towards the same goal. Even though I am relatively new to this, I feel like this is such an exciting time to study family history. With so many records becoming more accessible through digitization and groups like this that connect people from all over the world, working on one big family history project. I remember my mom working on genealogy back in the early 90's and she would have to wait months and months to receive a document, or a letter telling her no record was found. Great times! You all have a good day.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] genealogy program
I have been playing with Heredis all afternoon (a pretty complete trial program) and I am pretty impressed. The learning curve was minimal and it thinks like I do. It gives you a list of all your duplicates and shows you both entries with a merged entry in the middle. You can then work with the entry that will be merged and pick and choose what you want to keep. You then hit something like merge entry and bam!, the duplicates are gone and all that is left is the merged entry. Not sure what happens if you decided you made a mistake... It also does a good job on relationships (maybe more than you care to know). Check it out. It works for Mac and PC.

Coupled with filho the meaning is clear and quite different from the use on the marriage registration.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Sao Miguel people in Sao Jorge!
I have an instance in my family line that is related to what you are talking about. My ggg grandfather Antonio Silveira da Costa (born 1838, Arrifes, Sao Miguel) moved with his parents Joao da Costa and Anna Maria and grandmother Magdalena Rosa from Arrifes, Sao Miguel to Ribeira Seca, Sao Jorge somewhere between 1842 and 1864. In 1865 he married Rosa Silveira in Ribeira Seca, Sao Jorge. Based on an info from a cousin, Joao da Costa (father of Antonio) was an engineer at the time they were building the road that connected the villages of Topo and Velas. This may have been why the whole family moved all the way to Sao Jorge. I only found out/realized that the whole family had moved, because earlier on I had been trying to find the death records for Joao da Costa, Anna Maria and Magdalena Rosa in the obitos in Sao Miguel and had come up with nothing, and later on I was browsing through the Obitos in Ribeira Seca, Sao Jorge and came upon one of their death records. I search more and found the rest which was a great find. I wonder what other reasons may have prompted the moved to Sao Jorge? Anyways, I thought it was an interesting story that connects with the posting topic. David On Wednesday, January 29, 2014 7:54:03 AM UTC-8, rcapodc wrote: You are welcome, Elisue!

[AZORES-Genealogy] Help with Marriage Record - Andre de Sousa Isabel Cabral - 1667 in Santa Luzia, Feteiras, Sao Miguel
I have a marriage record that is hard to read and was looking for some fresh eyes to take a look at it and see if they can make out the parents names of the bridge and groom. The writing is kind of hard to read, names are abbreviated, and the record curves into the spine of the book so the names get harder to make out. I have decent idea of the names, but am not quite sure. The record is from 9 Feb 1667 in Santa Luzia, Feteiras, Sao Miguel. I think the parents of Antonio are Joao? Frz? and Maria ?Aguiar? and parents of Isabel are Pedro? Cabral and Maria Alvarez? I could be way off, haha. Any input would be helpful. Here is the link.
