Thanks for that explanation ; yes I did read your earlier post about the out of Africa theory. Paul is it for his family except for his one cousin who is 7 years older. Yes, I have gone back on his other lines so I'll. Look for the summer sale and do the Autosomal DNA. Thank you Cheri.

With over 1200 readers, some experienced and know what you meant and some are brand new to genealogy, well, I just don't want people to take things as the gospel truth. The information you provided is your husband's strict maternal line. All women all the way back to the woman in question. 2 strategies for this line. 1) mtDNA testing. This focuses on this one line ONLY. HOWEVER, unless there happens to be a rare mutation, the results are generally anthropological in nature. By that, I mean you get a lot of the out of Africa theory. I made an post earlier today about mtDNA testing in regards to the current sale. 2) Autosomal DNA (Family Finder) testing. This focuses on ALL of your husband's lines going back about 200 years from his birth. If you have most of his lines documented except this Luzia de Jesus Correia line, then this test will work for you. If your husband's mother or grandmother is alive, it would be better to test the oldest one (test grandma if she is alive. If not, test mom if she is alive. If not, test hubby). You can do both. You can order the mtDNA with this current sale (but don't hope for a genealogy match) and wait for the Sizzling Summer Sale around June/July. Family Finder won't be on sale (price is $99 USD + postage), but the last 2 sales they have offered a $100 gift card to www.Restaurant.com (good for U.S. restaurants - smaller mom-and-pop types, not big chain restaurants) with the purchase of a Family Finder test.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Luiza de Jesus of Pais incognito
Hi Margaret; Thanks for helping me once again. I noticed that the Jacintho Jose and Bento (?) were the standard witnesses at the 4 baptisms on that page and when I was looking in the Sao Sebastao records, the same pattern existed in that two witnesses seemed to be the same over and over- at least on the number pages that I read. Could it be that witnesses gave or suggested a name for the child and that they were prominent people in the parish. Or perhaps they were affiliated with the parish by volunteering at the chapel or whenever the priest needed help or maybe they lived close to the church and were present at each of these baptisms.(!). Lots of suppositions. I wonder if these babies were just a day or two old. Doug brought up a good point- in that you can't tell the difference in a baby that's just a couple of days old. My husband wondered if these babies were left at the Roda by a mother from another town (or parish) other than their own. In a few cases I noticed they were given to people from other parishes. The Camera or board that ordered the child to be given to someone must have acted quickly and they must have had a list of people waiting. (Maybe someone on the list has knowledge on this) I started looking for the marriage of the couple that raised her last night (late) and very early this morning because I'm itching to find SOME clue but I have an all day event today and alas, I have to wait till tomorrow to pursue this quest. Isn't that funny how we can't wait to find these ancestors? Maria Elena On Mar 28, 2014, at 9:53 PM, Margaret Vicente margaretvice...@gmail.com wrote: I back your pardon, it is Mosteiros.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Luiza de Jesus of Pais incognito
Maria, Luisa was left at the roda da Misericordia this would be in the Hospital of Santa Casa da Misericordia of S. Jose. The witness selection by the priest if an important person were present at the time of the baptism their name/status would lend statust/honour to the document. Where you see the same name most often that would be because they were assisting the priest during baptisms on a regular basis to act as witnesses. The name giving is a guess at this point but knowing they lived in close community, it could be anyone handling that particular child. The situation was very serious where the babies and toddlers were being abandoned with those lucky enough to make it through living on the streets. They were so many that people regarded them they were trampled to death by horses, carriages and other animal driven carts. The City then passed a law to penalize and fine anyone who accidentally may cause harm to the children. Secondly they started by opening houses to take them in. For the babies they set up the rodas for anonymity to prevent abandonment. The Camara City Hall enlisted families to foster the children. After a while the foster parents for Ponta Delgada were over capacity they enlisted out of town families. These people were nursing women for babies and other women for older children, widows especially since this would be their only source of income, who would raise the children for the City. Many of these children only chance of survival was the surety that if they died there would be no money coming in for the families that foster parented them. Many of these children would be given the surname Camara for they were their ward. This situation was not endemic to the islands; it was seen throughout most European countries, England, France etc. Few families could afford to send their pregnant daughter to a far away relative but in most cases these children would be from the same town. We also should take into account the timeline of each occurrence and learn the history of that particular era for that particular place. The islands were evolving the people in power were building and creating work opportunities attracting many from all over the islands and the mainland even foreigner countries. Please note that the main points above are based on journal records of the City Hall (Camara) archives of Ponta Delgada. Hope this helps you have a better idea of how and why these things were.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Parishes surrounding Fajã de Baixo, P.D.
I am wondering what parishes a couple from Fajã de Baixo may have gone to for their wedding prior to 1693. What are the surrounding parishes that I might search for their marriages? All suggestions are appreciated.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Marriage records; where the banns were read
Good day everyone. I have been extracting the records from Ribeira Seca, Sao Jorge. I know how to pull the basic information out of the records, but really don't read Portuguese. My question RE: 1764-1803 Ribeira Seca Marriages #0005, left side, the banns were read in both the villages of Topo and Norte Grande I believe, but does not state definitively as to who came from where. Can someone take a look at this record please, and tell me if I am way out in left field on this. Also can someone direct me to where I might find images with translations of B,M,D records so I can learn to read the records. Thanks.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Fontes/Soares
I am trying to find information about my great grandparents Mary Conceicao Fontes, and Mariano Soares before they came to the US. Mariano was born March 4, 1876 in (I think San Miguel) and died Oct 29, l943 in Oakland, Calif. My great grandmother Mary Conceicao Fontes was born July 5, 1874, (I think in San Miguel,) and died Sept, 15, 1951 in Oakland, Calif. I know that they immigrated to San Fransico from Hawaii. My grandmother Laura Soares Cabral was born in Hawaii in 1998. They had 8 children and lived in the Oakland bay area after they came here. I am trying to find any birth, marriage or baptism records for them.

Suzanne, Many, many people are busy, but like to help. So to get the most out of your post (and to save time on your hands) post the link. People are more likely to click on ONE link than to navigate to the record. And you hope that they navigate to the RIGHT record. Also post bottom left or top right, if necessary.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Fontes/Soares
Laura, You need to have stuff in Portuguese, not Spanish. So in your genealogy program, type Sao Miguel or São Miguel. People trying to do a search on Portuguese research from the island of Sao Miguel won't be typing in Spanish. You need the freguesia over there on Sao Miguel. There are about 70 freguesias/villages on Sao Miguel alone. You can't find their marriages or baptisms until you find their freguesia. You need to start with their deaths and everything that they did in CA and HI tracing your way back in time. Where to begin can be found on the Azores GenWeb here: http://goo.gl/WT5Ra1 IslandRoutes (Portuguese to Hawaii) is also another source: http://www.yourislandroutes.com/ There are people on this list with Bob de Mello's and Edgar Knowleton's Immigration to HI books that might be able to do a look up. Those books contain the freguesia in many cases. I'm guessing you have a typo on your ancestor's year of 1998. And with people on this list living in America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the Azoreswell, when you say they came here this list of 1200 has no idea what you mean. Since we have a global audience it helps to write that they came to ___. Good luck! Hope a Portuguese Hawaiian researcher posts here soon!

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Soutomaior / Souto Maior as a name
Cheri, it is a surname, both Portuguese and Hispanic. It is somewhat rare, but, I've come across it in my research (can't say where or when).
