JB-
Joe Matias did indeed find the Passaportes for your ancestor.  It is #639
(not 609) on Joe's attached file.  Traveling on the same passport are the
wife and 3 children.  José Resendes, 20 yrs. old & single, is listed
immediately below.  Note that the Concelho is Villa [sic] do Porto, but the
Parish from whence they came is Nossa Senhora da Purificação (Santo
Espírito).

My wife and I have extensive records for the two eastern parishes (Santa
Bárbara & Santo Espírito) of Santa Maria, and therefore of no help to you.
 Fortunately "E" saw your posting long before I did, and her replies sound
correct.

As Cheri has already told you, the baptism records on film are your only
current hope of finding more information about your great grandfather &
spouse.  Their baptisms will be on one of the following film numbers:
1388405, 1388406, 1388407, 1388408, 1388409. A likely guess would be to
start with #406.  Baptism records extend from 1599-1892, so your search of

JB,

Passenger manifests emigrating (leaving) out of the Azores are called
Passaportes.  Ponta Delgada on Sao Miguel island was a major port and many
leaving from Santa Maria usually went to the closest port, which would have
been Ponta Delgada.  However, Ponta Delgada has gaps in their records.
There is a gap between 1883-1894, so you won't be able to find the first
emigration.  But they do exist for 1907.  And they are online at the Centro
de Conhecimento dos Acores (CCA): http://goo.gl/7anSJ

That will give you Calisto & Filomena's parents' names.  Unfortunately, the
parish records for Santa Maria are NOT online yet.  You'll have to order
the film from your local Family History Center (FHC).  Unless you live
anywhere near North Dartmouth, MA.  They have all the film for all 9
islands of the Azores there.
