Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] St. John the Baptist & Mount Carmel churches in New Bedford, Massachusetts

[danandmaria]

I did speak with her last week, and she mentioned she had 6 people waiting for 
information. She said she would work on all on a first come first served basis.

Well Cheri, if she doesnt get ahold of you let me know. Maybe i can text her 
and ask for a favor before she goes home from work one day. She is a very nice 
lady and i doubt she would have a problem with it. Keep me posted!

Jesse, 
I've emailed her twice. I don't know what her work load is nor do I want to

to do the regular day to day parishioner stuff first. So I guess, I'll wait a

Thanks, Joanne, for the

John's and ask in person for the information. Living

I’m not sure

I'm posting about St. John the Baptist and Mount Carmel Churches in New
Bedford, Massachusetts and how to obtain information from them. That's the
title of this thread.

At one point you said St. John's (the subject of this thread) and at
another point you said St. Mary's in Rhode Island. Not too sure if you know
where you are looking. So if you aren't talking about St. John the Baptist
or Mount Carmel in New Bedford, Massachusetts, your query about St. Mary's
in RI is going to get lost in here. You probably want to start a new
posting called "St. Mary's in  Rhode Island" and post there.

 Thanks, Joanne, for the

 John's and ask in person for the information.  Living

  I’m sorry you

 me that

  I’m not sure
 they’d go the extra mile to look in the

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] St. John the Baptist & Mount Carmel churches in New Bedford, Massachusetts

['celeste perry' via Azores Genealogy]

Thank you, Maria, for your offer to help me.  I have the following information 
about the person I call "the elusive Maria Cristo."
   The information I have regarding Maria Cristo and her connection to St. 
Mary's in Bristol, RI is that she married  Filippe Perreira Da Silva there on 
November 27th, 1909.  I have a copy (actually a form filled in with the 
information) of that marriage.  
   I have been told that she "would have had to provide a baptismal certificate 
from the "old country" before the marriage.  I was also told that getting into 
those sealed records is not impossible just requires a very sympathetic cleric 
or parish secretary who is into genealogy.  
   I tried contact via a written letter and, as I mentioned, the response was a 
note written in the margin of my letter and the return of the $20.00 I sent 
with the letter.  Any help you can give me in looking for additional 
information that MAY exist is appreciated.

I’m sorry you had that experience, Celeste. My sources tell me that
particular rectory is a bit of a mess personnel-wise so I’m not sure they’d
go the extra mile to look in the files. Parishes need more encouragement
like what we’re doing in the Archdiocese of Boston to get them to give us
genealogists a good helping hand.

Any suggestions that can give me a more accurate location of birth is
appreciated.

I called this
morning, and the church secretary, Tammy, said the St. John
books are there. She won't photocopy or take a picture
of the book but will issue a paper certificate. I told her
the certificate doesn't have a blank for the
freguesia/village that the bride and groom are from. She
said to state that in an email to her and she'll add it
in. So now I play "wait and see."
At least we have confirmation that the books are there
as of January 2017.

Cheri,

If you don't need it anytime soon, I will be back there beginning August
for Madeira festival and I am going Mt. Carmel for a St. John's marriage
record also.  I am also going to the NB Vital Records for the papers that
were actually filled out by bride and groom to obtain license. I believe
they are not easily accessible so I am hoping they will humor me and try to
find them.  I have them on another couple and they had even more info on
them (even though it proved to be incorrect info!!??!!)

[AZORES-Genealogy] St. John the Baptist & Mount Carmel churches in New Bedford, Massachusetts

[Cheri Mello]

When St. John the Baptist closed in New Bedford, the parishioners and Fr.
Oliveira all went over to Mount Carmel on Bonney Street. It is my
understanding that the books went there too.

Has anyone gone over there recently to utilize the St. John's books? I need
a marriage from 1907 that occurred at St. John the Baptist.
Thanks, Cheri
