Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Assistance with first name; Graciosa Vasconcellos Baptism

['Bill Boyd' via Azores Genealogy]

Thank you!  A much better name ;-)

BTW, I just found the baptism for my 2 x great grandmother Constancia 
(http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/GRA-SC-GUADALUPE-B-1832-1841/GRA-SC-GUADALUPE-B-1832-1841_item1/P160.html)
 and she was born on Graciosa.  Thank you for all of your help!

[AZORES-Genealogy] Assistance with first name; Graciosa Vasconcellos Baptism

['Bill Boyd' via Azores Genealogy]

Please see original record here:
http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/GRA-SC-GUADALUPE-B-1832-1841/GRA-SC-GUADALUPE-B-1832-1841_item1/P162.html


(second record on left)

I believe the first name is "Horinda", but I am not at all positive.  I've 
created a study of the name (attached).  The first line of the graphic is the 
original name in context.  The second line is several variations on the first 
name.  The third line is another version of the name in the same record 
(Horinda de Cunha de Mello Pacheco?).

This appears to be another branch of my Vasconcellos line on Graciosa.

Thank you!

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Help with Marriage record - Gineties, Sao Miguel

[Cheri Mello]

Maria Natalia,

Ernesto do Canto lived in the latter 1800s.  He became interested in
genealogy and created some indices for some freguesias on Sao Miguel
island.  When he created an index, he did not necessarily include all
families either.  He included prominent families or families that were
important to him.  Most of his indices were marriages, but he did a few
baptisms too.

The Canto indices were not scanned and are not available on the CCA.  You
have to go to Sao Miguel to see them.

When I've gone to Sao Miguel, I've typed up some of the indices that are in
the freguesias I'm researching.  The only one I have in its entirety is for
Achada (marriages).  I know a few other people have done the same thing.

Thanks, Cheri.

I cannot find a Carreiro conjoined with Jose Thomas (Tomas) in any sources, 
and there are only two Carreiro's listed in Santa Cruz das Flores (Gomes' 
Casais das Flores e do Corvo).

For the time being I'll conclude the record is not legible enough for any 
conclusion.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Where to buy shoes on Pico?

[Tomas Leal]

Alas, wish I had known you were searching, as I could have shown you some 
stores you could visit for those shoes. Shopping can be a great frustration 
because the local stores are so poorly marked. Often, I happen to walk by a 
building and see an open door--a little loja! Who knew?

The best way to find where to buy something on Pico is to ask a 
resident--and hope you can follow the directions, as they are usually vague 
and based on some visual clue known only to someone who already knows where 
the store is.

If you checked Sol-Mar in Madalena, you were two blocks away from a 
sporting goods store that has a shoe department with every kind of athletic 
shoe. Also, you were one block away in the other direction from a "Chinese 
store" that also has a wide selection of shoes (mostly women's, though, but 
several men's as well).

All the larger towns have stores owned and operated by immigrants from 
Macau, who have come in under special conditions set by the Portuguese 
government to provide goods at lower prices. They import scads of goods 
made in China and other Asian countries; some are of inferior quality and 
some are completely lousy. However, some are pretty good, and the prices 
are amazingly low. If you're visiting for a few weeks and need a pair of 
walking shoes, a Chinese store could be the place to get just what you need 
for the time you need it, and the cost will be in line with your use.

FYI, I ship pairs of shoes over for myself each spring so I'll have them 
there in summer. I have to because I wear special shoes with rocker soles 
that enable me to walk without pain or difficulty (and avoid surgery that 
has only a 50-50 chance of success). Thus, I don't know first-hand the 
quality of the shoes at these stores, but I do know plenty of locals who 
have bought shoes there, and they're satisfied.

Everyone: Next time you're headed to anywhere in the archipelago in the 
summer, let us know ahead of time, as several list members come here each 
year for extended periods of time. For example, I usually get to Pico late 
May and stay through the summer. I have family in Flamengos, Faial, so I go 
over there now and then. With the "third age" fares on the ferries, I go to 
other islands for brief visits. 

Because some of us are here for extended periods and have learned more ins 
and outs of finding things, especially specific locations and records, we 
can sometimes aid genealogical research of other members. I have done some 
digging around here for list members in the U.S. and photographed the homes 
of some earlier family members.

Just as list members help each other with genealogy matters on the list, so 
we can help each other here in paradise in the Atlantic!

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Where to buy shoes on Pico?

[João Ventura]

Hi Drew,

Even though I only visited those islands once, I can attest to the fact 
that Horta is the only "real" urban center in those two islands. There's 
even a modern supermarket near the new hospital in Horta that I'm pretty 
sure stocks up on shoes and just about everything else.

I'm pretty sure that most 'active' people in Pico do not spend more than a 
month without taking the boat between Madalena and Horta.
