Thank you, Thank you, THANK YOU Maggie 15  !!!
Your time and effort to provide BOTH the Portuguese record and right below it 
the translation is the greatest learning tool I have seen and is a big 
motivator for me to consider. again, to overcome my challenge to tackle my 
mothers Azorean "Jose' Joaquim da Silveira; b: 23 Jun 1797 Cedros, Flores " 
line.   

As Sam said "Oh Boy, am I excited ! "  When I see you show birth dates  of 1788 
for Machado and Silveira.
Being realistic these names are like Smith and Brown in English so I won't hold 
my breath but I will devourer your line and research where your locations are 
located. 
Thank you so very much for sharing this detail with us ! 
So very much appreciated, Maggie Homen Sutton:

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Frank Gomes and Manuel Gomes

['Ralph Sellars' via Azores Genealogy]

 Some 3 years ago a generous member of this group shared with me (Thank you)  
they had found what may be a 5 G G mother of mine name Catarina Gomes who was 
married to a Manuel Valadao. I have recorded my understanding in that the 
source of this is a " Flores History Book / Azores web".  If any one knows  a 
more definitive title and/or author of such  a book I would be appreciative if 
I could be so informed. 
Family//Search has a Find A Grave Index record of a Catarina Gomes death 15 Mar 
1650 at Cedros, Horta Municipality, Azores Region, Portugal.  It also shows she 
had a Child Maria Gomes.  (_ - 1671).  My Catarina Gomes had a daughter 
Maria who married a Joao Rodrigues Serpa.
The web encyclopedia Wikipedia says Cedros, Horta Municipality, Azores is on 
Faial, but I have documentation that my 2 G G parents came from Cedros on 
Flores and it has been stated my 3 G G Father served the Church on both Cedros 
and Faial  before relocating to Samoa and marring the kings daughter (?)
All too interesting likely to be factual, but with enough possibility that 
there may some value to be considered . 
I would welcome any thoughts or other avenues to venture to for perusing this 
family or sharing additional information which would document this family line 
from my Manuel Lewis (!) and wife  Francisca Marianne Joseph and the above 
referenced  Manuel Valadao and Catarina Gomes.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family Tree Maker FTM16 support ending - Need Info on New Program

['Ralph Sellars' via Azores Genealogy]

To clarify my post below I will point out I am not computer literate.  For that 
reason I maintain an annual subscription to Best Buy's "Geek Squad" 
professional computer service.  
I believe they were able to convert my 32 bit FTM version 2006 (that's  the 
version that my opening page of my current FTM program still shows)  to run on 
a 64 bit computer.  
My under standing is that Ancestry purchased the rights to FTM about Version 
2006.   During their early ownership they maintained and created changes to the 
program up to about version 8 or 9.  Being uncomfortable with some of the 
changes, I stopped upgrading at Version 2006 and went back to my backup 2006 
version.
My understanding is that Ancestry then developed a completely new and different 
genealogy program (app?).  At some point they developed a conversion program 
for FTM 32 bit to FTM  64 bit.  
When my old computer died, Ancestry had already moved ahead to either Version 
11 or 12. and were no longer supporting FTM 32 OR the conversion program.  In 
working with Ancestry my Geek Squad   agent was able to establish that if I was 
willing to pay for the upgrades of my Version 2006 to Ancestry's Version 
(?)2009 they could convert my Version 2006 (now actually 2009)  to run on a 64 
bit computer. 
So I am now running with some of Ancestry's upgrades that I originally tried to 
avoid but its a small price to pay as I still essentially have the old 
Broderbund program.

Welcome to the Club !
I dropped FTM "Ancestry" when Ancestry started making complicated changes to 
it.   One example: recording of sources !
I bought and have the full Roots Magic version 7  and Legacy 8.0 version's and 
found them both far more complex and difficult to load.  I found these are both 
good and worth while products and have helpful staffing but having FTM I find 
they are more complex than I need. 
So to make a long story short after a lot of blood. sweat, and tears, and my 
Geek Squad help,  I have reverted back to my FTM version 2006.   It still works 
fine,  full fills my every need, is simple, self intuitive, so I intend to keep 
it as long as it works. 
My distress was created when my 32 bit computer died and I had to buy a new 
one.  At that point in time all new computers were 64 bit.  My FTM would not 
run on 64 bit so I had to upgrade FTM to 64.  When Ancestry purchased FTM they 
developed a conversion program.  When my computer died they had developed their 
own new version FTM and no longer supported the original FTM they purchased or 
the conversion program.  Fortunately, my local Geek Squad were able to find a 
way they had made the conversion in the past and were able to upgrade my copy 
of FTM to 64 bit.  
I have been using it since about 1990 . 
In 2004 I used it to publish a158 page Genealogical History of my Sellars 
Family Titled  "NEWFOUNDLAND SELLARS  Facts and/or Hearsay" using Family Tree 
Maker V10.  This version of FTM not only  developed the individual reports and 
charts it created an all name index and identified every page the individual 
was noted on, it collated the reports and numbered the pages consecutively 
starting with the table of contents through the dedication, preface, 
acknowledgements, introduction and all the various reports and charts I elected 
to use.  What more do I need ?  Nothing.  It is a GREAT PROGRAM ! (?App.?)
Copies have been distributed to many public entities, including public 
libraries, historical societies, and town halls, which have been helpful to me 
in collection of data. It is now out of print. 
I would hope that some entity would take an interest in that original 
Broderbund program and maintaining the original self intuitive program concepts 
windows, etc., make and maintain the program to do things like making FTM run 
on a 64 bit program rather than earlier 32 bit  or 16 bit program  or earlier.
I have heard that some company may have purchased from Ancestry the rights to 
FTM ?   Which FTM ?
If any one on the list knows who the company is,  or what the current status is 
I would hope they could share that information with those of  us who are caught 
in this difficult position. 
Good luck in your search.

 FTM support is supposed
 to end the end of the year.  I have FTM 16.  Has anyone
 changed to a different program or the new company who is
 supposed to take over FTM users? Any other program to make
 an easy switch?  I am looking for an easy switch and how to
 do it and what I will and/or will not lose. Remember, I am

[AZORES-Genealogy]

['Ralph Sellars' via Azores Genealogy]

 For what it is worth:  My desk top computer disk was failing.  Bought new big 
touch screen desk top and Geek Squad contract to install and service.  
Nobody could get my Family Tree V6 up and running on brand new idiot box.  So 
had to pay to upgrade to Ancestry V8 and then again to Ancestry V10 because V8 
was no longer supported.  I hate ANCESTRY'S  genealogy program !   
Out of pure frustration and s_ _t luck I reinserted my V6 disk into the idiot 
box and BINGO ! After running through warnings, incompatibility, unsupported 
notices, and directions to contact Ancestry for an up grade, which of course I 
had just paid for two, I have been running Borderbond,s FTM for a year and a 
half now.  
However, getting sick and tired of the hassle each time I open my FTM I elected 
to break down and buy a new program.  I received Legacy today.  In attempting 
to load it with my 20,000 FTM records I found I cannot create a GEDCOM from my 
V6 as I get a message that my hard drive has been damaged and cannot make such 
a file.  
Now that message, I suspect, is left over from my old computer as that is one 
of the ways I knew I had a problem that needed to be addressed and the reason I 
bought the new HP and got stuck with Microsoft V8. 
So Al,  I am sorry.  I am very sympathetic,  Welcome to the  Club!   
My V6 seems to work satisfactorily in all other regards.  It takes up dates, 
additions, merges etc, Prints charts, Pictures, reports etc.  I don't look 
forward to manually reentering 20,000+ records.  But I am sufficiently put out 
that it looks like that may be my only alternative.  
 If any one has any suggestions as to what I might try I would be most grateful 
for any suggestions.

Lyn needs to state left side 3rd record, right side bottom.  This hasn't 
happened yet.

Something's wrong with my mom at the nursing home, so I can't help out today.

Wow! That is so generous of you. Almost all of my known ancestors come 
from Ribeira Seca. I will have to check how far back my lines go. I 
need documentation!

Thank you for that generous offer. I will have to check my Sao Jorge 
lines. I know some are in Ribeira Seca. I may not be back to the time 
periods you have extracted, but I will check

Fw: [AZORES-Genealogy] MyOrigins surprise findings from Family Finder DNA testing

['Ralph Sellars' via Azores Genealogy]

I find these discussions interesting and/or perhaps amusing ?

I am most curious about the term/statement which is regularly stated and 
apparently accepted by many that we get half our genes from one parent and half 
from the other.  It is logical to assume that both or either parents have equal 
opportunity to provide genes.

Is there any scientific documentation that it is half and half?  Could it be 
40/60 one way or another or perhaps 30/70?

My nursing degree wife tells me that the male determines the sex !  How do we 
know that is a fact not hearsay?

In comments regarding Family Finder it is stated that the back ground of 
siblings shows up differently.  How come.  Could it be that one child got 40% 
from mom and 60% from dad while the other child got 70% from mom and only 30% 
from Dad? 

SMILE, just wondering!  Why do siblings turn out so much different from one 
another if they all get an equal half?
