Hello!

This is an old thread for a question I had about a margin note.  There were 
alot of ideas, but the quality of the CCA image was so poor that it wasn't 
possible to tell what it said  for sure.  I have copied the record off 
film, and below is the best available copy of the margin note.  Can anyone 
please (with this improved copy) attempt to tell me when he died - or 
whatever else it may discuss in the margin note!

Thank you all ever so much!

FYI;  the term filho (a) familias translation should be son or daughter of XYZ 
if you want to be exact then the best I can think of is "dependent

who the father/mother is, but rather the son/daughter of that family.

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Patron Saints

I was told by some very traditional old Catholics that the when a couple 
married they too also declared a patron saint. I wonder if that is how we 
became the Caetano do Canto from Saint Caetano, the patron saint of bread, 
farmers, gamblers and the unemployed.

There's no St John of Caldeira.  Following is a list of all the patron saints

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Hawaii marriage index online?

[IslandRoutes]

Pam, 
What island are you talking about?  I might be able to find other sources 
if I know the island.

The Hawaii State Archives websites has the index for marriages that covers 
all island, but I think it's only 1900-.

Then, they have Kauai, Hawaii, and I think Maui marriage 
licenses/certificates which are searchable.  They cover roughly the late 
1890s onward, but are spotty.

FamilySearch.org also has marriage indexes for Hawaii.  If I remember 
correctly, these are from the marriage register books.

I've never heard of GedWed.

 Yes. That is why I mentioned St. John the Baptist's feast day is June
 24rh, same as St. John Caldeira.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Patron Saints

[Mary Bordi]

My great grandmother was Maria. Her religious name, which she still signed
occasionally after coming to the US and marrying, was Maria das Neves. She
was from Norte Grande, Sao Jorge where the parish church is Nossa Senhora
das Neves.

I actually found a medal of "Our Lady of the Snows" on eBay.

 Thanks for the replies. I'm wondering which "St. John" that Sao Joao da
 Caldeira is? I cannot find anything about this saint. Is he the same as St.
 John the Baptist, or Saint John of God?

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Hawaii marriage index online?

[Aaron Pereira]

Pam,

You may be thinking of Ulukau.org
Its an online index of mostly marriage records of Hawaii,  but there are 
some probate, divorce, and naturalization records as well.  

http://ulukau.org/algene/cgi-bin/algene?l=en

Hawaii Archives has digital copies available online for all the islands 
except Oahu...click vital statistics tab from this link to search the 
records
https://digitalcollections.hawaii.gov/greenstone3/library
