Thanks Joe - you guys are terrific! I wish I had found this message forum 
long ago. I've been getting help from João Ventura on translations, and 
finding more about my heritage.

 I'm researching my genealogy, and trying to find information about my 
 great-grandfather, Alexander Souza.

 We believe Alexander Souza was born on São Jorge in early 1883 
 (possibly late 1882?). He immigrated to the San Francisco Bay Area (don't 
 know the year), and lived in Sausalito, CA. He married Mary Catan Mancebo 
 on May 6, 1907, and they had my grandfather, Edward Souza, in 1909. Alex 
 died on March 13, 1915, in Sausalito. Mary died shortly after, and my 
 grandfather never knew any other details about his father. Other documents 
 show he may also have been known as Alexander Souza Borba or Alexander S 
 Borba ... is it accurate that the last name would be Paternal-Maternal, so 
 Souza as the father's paternal surname and Borba as the mother's paternal 
 surname?

 We don't know the town he is from, or any information about other 
 relatives. I looked through the parish baptism records here on the 
 CulturaAcores site 
 .
  
 Unfortunately I didn't find any records that looked like they could be him.

 Any advice for how to further research this would be great! I've been 
 in touch with the Star of the Sea parish in Sausalito, and the Portuguese 
 Hall in Sausalito, but so far, no luck.

 Thanks,
 Eric Souza

Contact me off the group.  I have information on several generations back
