Victor,

The transcriber is noting where you can find Maria's baptism record...in 
this same book, the page number and baptism number, page 144 and 145
here are the links///it starts on page 144, at the bottom, and continues on 
to the next page.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Baptism record added as footnote? São Jorge-Norte Grande

2016-12-10 Thread Rosemarie Capodicci
Victor, this happens quite often in the Norte Grande records. The Priest or
his scribe enters the info in the wrong book (i.e. a baptism in the
marriage records, death in the baptism records) he also 'missed' a baptism
and has to go back and try to fit it in at the bottom of a page. The bad
thing is that when he does this, he usually leaves out the important things
like grandparents and godparents! At least he does give the parent names
and this is your line!

[AZORES-Genealogy] Joaquim Benedicto (Terceira) Child migrating to the US

2016-12-10 Thread Samantha B
I'm still hunting down Joaquim Benedicto. Hopefully I've found, and 
translated, his marriage record and birth records of both himself and his 
wife. So far I have lots of great new information and two more generations 
on both sides.

However, that's if this Joaquim is my Joaquim. I "know" (that's a loaded 
word huh) from the US 1910 census that he migrated to the US in about 1885, 
when he was about 10 years old.The very first record of him I can find in 
the US is his 1906 arrival on the SS Brooklyn with his new wife. The ship 
manifest does say that he's a US citizen. He does not seem to appear in the 
1990 or 1890 (fragment) census records. I can find no record of his parents 
in the US either.

So my next search is for his passport in about 1885. I'm starting with 
the Angra do Heroísmo passports as he's from Terceirca. If I have no luck 
there I'll move on to the other ports. My questions are

1) A bit of a subjective one I suppose ... Did children ever travel to the 
US at that time without their parents? I would think it was uncommon.

2) re Reading the records. I see the printed headings at the top of each 
page and understand them mostly. I don't know what the last column on each 
page says. It's something like "no do masso em que esta archivado o 
processo" Here's an 
example. 
http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/PASSAPORTES-TER-1874-1877/PASSAPORTES-TER-1874-1877_item1/P11.html
 
I don't know if this is going to be meaningful for me.

3) re Reading the records. As a child will he most likely have his own 
listing or should I be looking for his name in the listing of an adult?

Many thanks for all your help.
Samantha

Margaret,

Thanks much ... I appreciate the reply!
Natural son ... not married, got it. This is life as such.

My family has searched for years (16) to find out his lineage ... where did 
he live, where born etc.
He is not listed on the Terceira wedding index that I can find. Maybe he 
never married anyone?

Another interesting point. Rosa was almost 47 when when Antonio was born. 
They must have met at a Festa Dance. :')

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Help filling in some blanks Bernardino, of Soares and Figueiredo

2016-12-10 Thread linda
Hi,

I have some of the same names (Souza de Figueredo, Meneses, Soares and 
Curvelo/Corvelho) in one section of my tree (Villa do Porto, Santa Maria), 
and I think we probably connect a generation or two back from this record.  
Perhaps we already chatted about that a while back?

Anyway, this is how I read the record:

Bernardino filho de Joze Soares, e de Sua molher Donna Izabel
de Figueiredo naturais desta Parochial da Glorioza Santa Barbara
desta Ilha de  Santa Maria moradores no Lugar do Norte nasces
em os nove dias do mes de Julho de mil Sette annos Sincoenta  e outo
foi baptizado em os dezaseis dias do ditto mes, e anno por mim Fran-
cisco de Miranda vigario desta Parochial de Seus Pays nella: foi
Padrinho Ignacio de Souza de Figueirdo Homem Solteiro filho do
Alferes Joao Soares de Figuerido, que Deus tem e Madrinha Donna
Francisca dos Reys filha do ditto Alferes molher solteira: foram
Testemunhos o Capitam Mauricio de Souza Menezes, Manoel
Joze Coelho [Corvelho??], Solteiro filho de Marianna Coelha [Corvelha??] 
viuva moradores nesta
freguezia, que comigo aSignaram dia, mes, e anno Supra

Vigr.o Fran.co d[e] Miranda
[and two witness signatures]


This is how I interpret it (sections which you wrote "???" I've put into 
red):

Bernardino son of Jose Soares, and of his wife Dona Isabel
de Figueiredo natives of this Parish of Glorious Santa Barbara
of this island of Santa Maria [and] living in the place [neighborhood] of 
the North, born
on the 9th of the month of July of 1758
He was baptised on the 16th of the same month and year by me Fran-
cisco de Miranda vicar of this Parish in which his parents reside;
[the] Godfather was Ignacio de Souza de Figueiredo [a] single man [and the] 
son of
Alfares Joao Soares, who God has [i.e., who is deceased] and [the] 
Godmother [was] Dona
Francisca dos Reis daughter of the same Alfares [Joao Soares de Figueiredo] a 
single woman; 
[the] witnesses [were] the Captain Mauricio de Souza Meneses, Manoel 
Joze [Corvelho], single son of Marianna [Corvelha] widow [who both] live in 
this 
village, who signed [this document] along with me [on the] above day month 
and year

Vicar Francisco de Miranda

The first signature is probably Mauricio de Souza Meneses
Manoel Jose Corvelho

Coelho vs. Corvelho: In the body of the record, the name in question looks 
like "Coelho" to me too, but I believe it's more likely to be Corvelho.  
The witness signature looks more like Corvelho to me, and it's a name 
that's very common in Santa Barbara parish.

hope this helps,

:)

Linda

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] An ancestor in question

2016-12-10 Thread Margaret Vicente
Louie,

At birth his father was declared, incognito.

At marriage the priest declares he is the NATURAL son of Jose de Sousa
Borba.  You're lucky, he was mentioned.  The parents did not get married.
Please note that Antonio is using the maternal family surname, this also
indicates his father did not assume him.

[AZORES-Genealogy] An ancestor in question

2016-12-10 Thread LouieLouieOhOh

I have a relative (Great Grandfather) ... born in Ribeira Seca, Calheta, 
Sao Jorge, Azores.

http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SJR-CH-RIBEIRASECA-B-1871-1879/SJR-CH-RIBEIRASECA-B-1871-1879_item1/P130.html

On his baptism record, it says his father is unknown (pai incognito).

But, on his marriage document: the priest writes that his father is "Jose 
de Sousa Borba".

http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SJR-CH-RIBEIRASECA-C-1890-1899/SJR-CH-RIBEIRASECA-C-1890-1899_item1/P37.html

Is the document saying that the priest knows the father or ... friends say 
he was the father?
I'm a little confused on this one. Can I claim his lineage or not? I don't 
want to go looking for his baptismal record if my lineage stops there.

  hi Margaret,

 I found on ancestry a NY immigration:  

 New York Passenger List, 1820-1957
Year: 1907: Arrival, New York, New York; Microfilm 
 Serial: T715, 1897-1959; Micriofilm roll: roll 0885;
 Line 24; Page Number: 85

Looking at the record again, I realize it has a different birth city - 
Funchal, so while the age is right, this may not be him.  But if you look up 
the page, Joao is line 28 that was the name I saw and jumped to the conclusion 
it was him.

  Its interesting to know that they would name their kids the same name - I 
guess George Foreman wasn't the first to do that, then! ;}

  Shirley, I do find the 14 year old Joao confusing, as there is a Virginia 
that was born in 1893 to Joao and Francisca, so unless there was a multiple 
birth or they adopted a child, he doesn't make sense.  But everything else 
matches up in terms of ages and names/parentage.

If you look at the 17 year old Maria, record # 52 year 1890, on the top 
right page, 6th line down, it reads"secunda de nome", second of the name.  
This confirms she is the 2nd Maria of this family thus far.


Elaine, You mentioned Maria's Dad arrived in the USA same year, May 6th?  
What documentation do you have to prove this? Francisca's passport # 675 states 
she is 52 years and a widow.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Did I find the right passport?

2016-12-10 Thread Cheri Mello
There's a Maria born and died in 1892, a Manuel born and died in 1889, a
Maria born in 1887, and a Manuel born in 1884 and died in 1887. Joao and
Francisca married in 1882, so there could be one more baby (or not) between
1882 & 1884. There could be babies before marriage too (I don't think I
checked). I don't know who was born after Virginia b 1893.

Once you have the whole family complete, the Azorean passaportes will make
more sense.  Cheri

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: which port

2016-12-10 Thread Cheri Mello
Your original post:
<> I
answered that.

Then you switched gears and talked about arrival: <> That post had no question attached to it so
no one needed to respond.

Now you are talking about passports to a thread where you are talking about
Azorean records and American records. I have no idea which passport records
you seek: the American or the Azorean passaportes.

It sounds like you are new to genealogy. You need to start by getting a
genealogy software program (Legacy Family Tree has their Standard Edition
for free and RootsMagic has their Essentials free) and document everything,
creating a timeline for your ancestors. You will create the timeline
backwards, by beginning with the last event that occurred in their life:
death/burial. A how-to can be found on the Azores GenWeb here:
https://goo.gl/xYgVpZ

Do some of that stuff and post here on what you've done and what you need
clarification on.
Good luck, Cheri Mello

[AZORES-Genealogy] help with parent's names in marriage record

2016-12-10 Thread Amy Francis
I am having a hard time deciphering the handwriting in this marriage record 
from Sao Miguel, Vila Franca do Campo, if someone could help again, thank 
you so much.  I think I can read one of the parent's names out of the four 
- the father of the bride - Manuel de Medeiros.  

It is the marriage of Manuel da Costa and Maria Boteilha, bottom left.

Thank you!

2016-12-10 Thread Elaine Mello

So far, I've only found 2 - Maria (1890) and Virginia (1893).   

So I'll take that Joao as being the wrong one.  I haven't been able to find 
out anything about Virginia other than what is on the baptism record.

Elaine,
Funchal is Madeira island. Your people are from Ribeira Quente on Sao
Miguel island, one of the 9 Azores Islands. The Madeira Islands (2 of them)
are a different archipelago.

I have no idea what Shirley is talking about. What do you have for the kids
of Joao Ignacio de Lima and Francisca Rosa de Mello from Ribeira Quente? I
have 6 kids, with 3 living to adulthood. I haven't run across a Joao.

hi Margaret,

   I found on ancestry a NY immigration:  

   New York Passenger List, 1820-1957
  Year: 1907: Arrival, New York, New York; Microfilm 
   Serial: T715, 1897-1959; Micriofilm roll: roll 0885;
   Line 24; Page Number: 85

  Looking at the record again, I realize it has a different birth city - 
Funchal, so while the age is right, this may not be him.  But if you look 
up the page, Joao is line 28 that was the name I saw and jumped to the 
conclusion it was him.

Its interesting to know that they would name their kids the same name - I 
guess George Foreman wasn't the first to do that, then! ;}

Shirley, I do find the 14 year old Joao confusing, as there is a Virginia 
that was born in 1893 to Joao and Francisca, so unless there was a multiple 
birth or they adopted a child, he doesn't make sense.  But everything else 
matches up in terms of ages and names/parentage.

Looking at the record. Francisco/Francisca Rosa de Mello is the son/daughter of 
Manuel de Mello Barbosa and Maria Julia he/she is 50 years old and a 
widower/widow.

Maria de Lima age 20, Maria do Coracao/Carmo de Lima age 17 and Joao Ignacio de 
Lima age 14 I don't have any info on him. are the children of Jose Ignacio de 
Lima and Francisca Rosa they are all single and all are from Sao Roque.  

What I see in this record is Francisco/Francisca Rosa de Mello is most likely a 
relative the three minors and is accompanying them most likely to join their 
parents.

Hi everyone,

 

   I've been going page by page from about 1904 onwards looking for my 
parternal grandmather, Maria Lima.   It's been great looking at these records 
for those years from Porto Delgada, because whomever was writing the logs had 
the clearest handwriting I've seen so far.  I think I found her, but they 
weren't listed as coming from Ribeira Quente.  I'm assuming this is a mistake, 
as they just did an ellipses from the person above them rather than to write 
the correct town down.  

 

So on line 675 here:  
http://www.culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/PASSAPORTES-PDL-1906-1907/PASSAPORTES-PDL-1906-1907_item1/P114.html

 

I see the passport for Francisca Roza de Mello, whose parents were Manuel de 
Mello Barboza and Maria Julia.

The next line down is a Maria da Lima, with her parents listed, Joao Ignacio de 
Lima and Francisca Roza.

 

The line after that is another Maria Lima, who would be the right age for my 
grandmother, who was born in 1890.  I can't read the middle name listed there, 
and now there are two Marias there.  Looking at my family tree, Manuel had a 
brother Jose who also married a Francesca and their daughter was Maria, but I 
thought she was the same age, and she would have been a de Mello or Barboza, 
not a Lima.  

 

So is it possible that the first Maria was listed as my grandmother, but would 
in fact be the cousin?

 

And if this is the correct record, my grandmother would have had a little 
brother, also named Joao?

 

Thanks for you assistance!

 

Elaine
