Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Cousins father

[Cheri Mello]

Hi Doreen,

To do genealogy you need 3 things: A name, a date, and a place. You have no
places for any of your dates on any of your people. If you have places and
locations, you need to post that.
Good luck,

They were living on Rua da Egreja (today it's spelled Rua da Igreja). It's
the main street that the church is on. No house numbers. Nobody needed them
back then.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Unknown Parents...Dead End?

[Ângela Loura]

DNA could help you.

My great grandfather was a 'filho de pai incognito'. we confirmed who the
father was. Now, his father was also a 'filho de pai incognito'. Rumours
were passed through the generations about who the father might be, so i am
trying to find living descendants of this person to crosscheck with DNA.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Unknown Parents...Dead End?

[robertjm]

Hi Leana,

Have you done any DNA testing yet? In cases where you’ve got a “pai incógnito “ 
this might help you to bridge the gap by finding someone who is related. 

The trick will then be trying to piece together a paper trail, if that’s even 
possible.

I’m on my smartphone so can’t look at the links you provided. But, since there 
are usually multiple people on a page you should provide us with their name, as 
Cheri pointed out earlier.

Good luck!

I’ve got a g-g-g-grandfather who is Pai Incognito that I’ve been trying to get 
by. DNA tests suggest I’m related to Anthony Sizer. But, there’s no paper trail 
to follow. :-(

Robert

[AZORES-Genealogy] Summer reading-Azorean authors

['John Raposo' via Azores Genealogy]

Dear Fellow Listers, 


Greetings! I thought I would sharesome recommendations for summer readings. 
From Flores I have 3 authors: 


Alfred Lewis’s (1902-1977)hauntingly beautiful semi autobiographical island, 
Home is an Island, was originally published in English and is oneof those rare 
books by an Azorean that has now been translated from English intoPortuguese! 


Pedro da Silveira (1922- 2003) isprobably the leading poet from what many now 
consider the Azorean school ofliterature. Poems inAbsentia & Poems from The 
Island and the World (Bellis Azorica) byda Silveira, translated George 
Monteiro, et al. is now available. 


Not much Robertode Mesquita’s (1871-1923) poetry has been translated thus far, 
The following ismy translation of one of his poems from AlmasCativas e Pomas 
Dispersos 1973, Pedro da Silveira, (editor):

Universality

    
    Do youthink that desolate places lie at rest

    Likedeserted cemeteries,
    And thatthey, like the dead,

    Live on ina gloomy sleep?

 

    No! Whenthe mad winds rush over

    Theirdense forests,

    A mixedchorus of laments is loosed

    Andhopeless souls are tormented...

 

    In theautumn, when the countryside is dying,

    At thesmooth vibration of the Angelus bell,

    All thingsare awash in

    Waves ofanonymous longings.

    

    When thevoices of life grow weak

    And peaceis as sad and as vast as the sea,

    The moonappears, full of grace,

   To speakto the chosen hearts that know her. 
Roberto de Mesquita,  (my translation). You’ll not be surprised if Itell you 
that these three Florentines are distantly related from each other,

Stormy Isles: An Azorean Tale by VitorinoNemesio (1901-1978) was translated 
many years ago by Francisco CotaFagundes. The original translation was 
considered by many readers to be awkwardand difficult. Professor Fagundes has 
completely revised the original and thenew revised translation is now available 
from (Bellis Azorica) It is a great novel to take along to the beach or read on 
the veranda. 

Dark Stones: An Azorean Narrative,  José Dias de Melo (1925-2008) was 
translatedby Gregory McNabb and published several years ago by Gávea-Brown 
Publications,Providence: It takes place mostly in Pico and in the US in the 
last years ofthe 19th century to about the beginning of the great depression. 

Enjoy!

John Miranda Raposo
