Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Azorean Gravestones

['Jeremy G. B-C - Researching: Sao Jorge & Pico' via Azores Genealogy]

Hello all,

I have obtained more data pertaining to the island of Pico, and will upload it 
soon, and will update https://sites.google.com/site/azoreangravestones/ . 
Additionally, I have received the last of the data for Flores, and the island 
will, I suspect, be completed before the first of December if all goes well.

Ribeira Seca on Sao Jorge is about 75% complete as apparently not all names 
were on my origional list.  I am fixing the problem this week, so check back if 
you had relatives there. There is also a link to a YouTube video of a tour of 
the cemetery grave by grave. this is also being used to complete my records.

If anyone wishes to photograph or transcribe a cemetery on their trip to the 
Islands, please contact me below so that we can add the work to this project!  
The cemeteries are small, and as I hear take no longer than a half hour to do.

I have had about of people contact me through the site notifying me of trips 
that they plan on making and that they might be able to help with the little 
project.  I will try to notify this group when any major developments are made.

Thank you,

Jeremy B-C

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Interesting marriage - buried above the sea?

[Cheri Mello]

So the deceased was buried at sea, somewhere around the vicinity of the
Cape Verde islands? (Got it, the ship was sailing from Rio).

1. sepultado no alto mar, na altura de Cabo Verde vindo do Rio
de Janeiro, como justificado com testemunhas oculares.

Translation: Buried at high Sea, at Cape Verde's level coming from Rio
de Janeiro, as justifified by witnesses who saw it.

The priest is correct.  It is almost a straight line from Rio to Cape
Verde.  In order to return to the Azores the ship passes Cape Verde islands
to the east of its trajectory.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Interesting marriage - buried above the sea?

[Cheri Mello]

These are not my people, but I found this record interesting for Ribeira
Quente in 1864: Left page, 12th line down (it's #9, on the page before).

http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-PV-RIBEIRAQUENTE-C-1860-1869/SMG-PV-RIBEIRAQUENTE-C-1860-1869_item1/P37.html

Bride was the widow of Francisco de Sousa, buried above the sea (I guess
means buried at sea), above Cape Verde (altura is height, I see that in the
passaportes, but height of Cape Verde makes no sense), on the day and month
of April, 1861, ..DIGO coming from Rio de Janeiro.. then I think it says it
was verified by witnesses or testimonies.

I don't understand. Cape Verde is over there and Rio de Janeiro is that
way. What is the priest saying?

I think the rest of the record is typical. Just trying to figure out what
happened with husband #1. Thanks!

[AZORES-Genealogy] Legacy Family Tree (genealogy software) on sale only today (Friday, Nov. 25th)

[Cheri Mello]

(Cross posted to Madeira, Azores, IslandRoutes)

Got another sale flyer in my inbox. If you've been looking at Legacy Family
Tree genealogy software for your computer, it's on sale for 50% off (just
the download, or the download + CD mailed to you or other bundles as well).
It is version 8. You will get the version 9 free when it's released soon.
https://goo.gl/qOVpBP

If you want to try before you buy, their free version is called "Standard."
https://goo.gl/Zvt5db

I'm going to guess that the sale ends at 11:59pm MST, as I think they are
based in either Utah or Arizona.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] marriage record in agua de pau

[Margaret Vicente]

Amy, this couple are my relatives.

Groom: Caetano de Medeiros son of Francisco de Oliveira and Maria de
Medeiros
Bride: Margarida de Medeiros daughter of Miguel de Rezendes (Resendes),
deaceased, and Maria de Oliveira.

Both Baptised in the parish of N Senhora dos Anjos

Marriage date: 04-Jan-1753

The Y usage was an early form of writing, influence of the latin and
spanish.  Older priest used it for as long as they could for it was what
they new.  This letter in the alphabet has the same sound as the (i)
phonetically "e" in the Eng.
