Hi Cheri,

I find I need to unsubscribe at this time as I have so many things going at 
this time and can't keep up with my mail and Azores mail.  For some reason 
yahoo comes up and will not take the info I put in.

  Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] How to post to the list


  Since we have more new members, it may be a good time to post this.

  HOW TO MAKE A GOOD POST
  1) Start a new email.  Address it to Azores@googlegroups.com
  2) Subject:  This is very important on this active list.  Not everyone has 
time to read every message.  Many people scan the subject headings and hit 
delete if the subject is of no interest.  So if your subject says "Help Me" and 
the reader on the other end is busy, it will be deleted.  Try to put your 
surname and island in the subject heading, if possible.
  3) Type what you know in the body, trying to put in the name, date, and 
place.  If you are talking about your Maria de Mello in Massachusetts and you 
don't have the date, try a range like 1900-1920 or something.  Stating she is 
your great-grandma doesn't help us help you.  My greats were born in the 1860s 
through the 1880s.  We have people on this list in their 90s.  Their greats 
would be much older than my greats.  We have people on this list in their 20s.  
Their greats would be much younger than my greats.  It's just best to state the 
years (or approximates) instead.

  REPLYING TO A THREAD
  Right now, we have a thread titled "Flores."  So if you are researching 
Flores, read one of those emails and hit reply on your email.  Type what you 
know about your Flores ancestor. Your info about your Flores ancestor will go 
out to all 760+ people on this list.  DON'T hit reply to the Flores thread and 
tell us about your Maria de Mello on Sao Miguel who went to MA between 
1900-1920.  But I just said that the email goes to 760+ people.  Yes, but many 
are 760 BUSY people who read the subject heading only.  If they are researching 
Sao Miguel and you are posting to the Flores thread, they aren't reading the 
Flores thread, they are deleting it along with your info about Maria de Mello 
on Sao Miguel.

  Hope this helps!

2010-06-23 Thread Arlene Marcoux
I am glad your mom found a note to confirm what I sent you.  Glad I could 
help.
I see that many answered your question about names.  I also have Ursula in 
my ancestors.
There was no law that you had to give your child any last name other than 
the one they gave at baptism.  I believe it was in 1944 they changed the law 
to add father's last name.  In Brazil as well as the Azores.  There 
religious names were probably given to them at the time of their 
Confirmation in the Church.

Arlene...

Thought you'd want to know that the information you provided IS my
family.  My mom dug out a note with info from her aunt that never
really made sense before, but with your information, we understand now
that the note says Margarida had 2 sisters, Ana and Mary and one
brother, Frank which is on the money with your information.  I cannot
thank you enough for this.  I'd have looked for a thousand years
before I'd have figured it out on my own.  Thank you, thank  you,
thank you!

I started entering it my tree program yesterday, but I'm puzzled about
the names.  Maria Ursula do Coacao de Jesus, her parents are Antonio
Caetano Martins and Maria Usula.her father has a different last
name?  Is there something here that would tell me Maria's mother's
maiden name?

I've had great difficulty with the namingis there someplace I can
go to learn about how they get their names??

Thank you again,

I dug out myFloresfamily. I don't have much to share, just scant
information. I keep hoping to be connected to someone.

Here's myFloresfamily:

Margarida Ursela Pimentel, b June 1879 inFlores, immigrated alone at
age 15 to New Bedford
(married Jose da Silva, of San Miguel, 1897, in New Bedford who
later became Joseph S Sylvia)

Margarida (Maggie) parents: Jose Antonia (could be Antonio) 
Pimentel -Flores

Maria Ursela Pimentel -Flores

I believe Margarida had a brother "Frank" who married Annie Martin.

That's it. That's all I know. I only got that from the New Bedfored
marriage records. I don't even know if Maggie's parents came here.
Don't know Maggie's death date yet either but my mom thinks she was
buried at St. John's in New Bedford, so I don't have a death
certificate that might have had additional information. Maggie's
parents were both Pimentels? Or did Maggie not know her mother's
maiden name? I'm dead in the water on anything further.

  Cindy, 
  Sam is on the right track. Her full name was more than likely "Maria Ursula 
do Coracao de Jesus" or "Maria Ursula of the (Sacred) Heart of Jesus" if you 
translate it literally. "Morros" is a section of Lages Flores (ie a location 
name).

  As an aside, there seem to be a lot of "Ursulas" on Flores, some of them 
being ancestors of mine (case in point, my 3G grandmother Ursula Pimentel.) 
I've always thought of Ursula as a Scandanavian or at least Northern European 
woman's first name (remember the actress Ursula Andres). How did it ever get to 
Flores?

This is terrific info!  Margarida's birth date in this record is
almost on the money, June 1879.  I never had a birth day date...never
found their deaths either.  Anyway, family history notes that Maggie
had a brother Frank.  I'm guessing, but couldn't Francisco be
Americanized to "Frank"??  This further indicates this is probably the
right family.  It gives me plenty to work with.

I don't understand the naming process as Maria Ursula de Jesus has "do
Coracao" in the middle.  Is that a name or a place?  Also, what does,
"From the Morros" mean?

Thanks again Arlene, this is just so wonderful as i've never been able
to find anything on my Azorean past.  I owe you coffee and a
malasada.

This gives me hope that I will be able to find more on the Pimentels.
I know you'll think this is crazy but when I was a kid in the 50's my
grandfather told us that his uncle Manuel Pimentel was hung for being
a pirate, I don't know where or when or how as I didn't care back
then, so I was really hoping to find out what that was all about some
day.  As a kid we blew off that story and laughed, but now I'm
learning to pay attention to the family lore as eventually, I find
there's usually a grain of truth in there.  I find it oddly exciting
to think I have a pirate ancestor!  Arrr!

  Beverly, 

  Brick Wall, no more! By following Deolinda's sister Catherine, I located her 
husband obit, then used his birthdate and origin in Flores to locate his 
baptism in Lajedo. That was done by

  looking for a similar name in the Flores e Corvo marrige book. Silvestre 
Antonio Serpa, had the same name as his grandfather. Taking the guess that they 
are from the same town

  I located Deolinda's baptisn record on the CCA site. Then used the marriage 
book to build the tree. I already had some of the ancestors in my files from 
work on my Vieira family and a 

  friends Xavier and Novo families from the area. So here are your people:

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Occupation ---arreiro? What is it?

2010-05-31 Thread Arlene Marcoux

Terri,

I have an old dictionary and it shows, Arreiar.. to dress; to harness, to 
saddle, to adorn one's self.


It also has the word Arreio, horse-harness; dress. -s, horse-trappings.

Another... arreiro,  harness; decorations.

In some new documents i have, I'm reading that my great great
grandfather had the occupation of an 'arreiro'. I have tried Babelfish
to translate this but can't seem to find out what it means.  Anyone
else have this in their documents?
Thanks

  Arlene M,

  There are no records for Sao Miguel online.  Records are coming online, but 
not for Sao Miguel, except for Hermano's index on Lagoa, I think.

  You may have to order Antonio's birth for the archive on Horta.  An 1888 
baptism will confirm where the parents are from.

  The address for the archive in Horta can be found on the Azores GenWeb.  
There's also a form letter where you can fill in the blanks at the end.

  Good luck,

[AZORES-Genealogy] Family in São Miguel

2010-05-30 Thread Arlene Marcoux
I have been trying to find the parents for António Furtado Silva b. 11/2/1888 
Fazenda das Lajes, Flores.  His parents are João Furtado Frade and Maria da 
Conceição dos Santos Melao both from Agua d'Alto, San Miguel, Azores.  João's 
Parents are Francisco Furtado Frade and Maria de Jesus Correia.  Maria's 
parents are Manuel Paiva Melao and Carolina da Conceição de Jesus.  All belived 
to be from Agua d'Alto, San Migel, Azores.
António's son Louie does no know how his father got the Silva name because none 
of the relatives he knew, did not have the name Silva.  When he asked his dad 
when young why his last name was Silva and his father wasn't all he got was a 
shrug and never explained.
Hope there is someone that can help.  Doe anyone have a San Miguel web site?

Arlene
