 church roda.  If you think he was born in Santa Cruz or Lajes on Flores,
 you can look in those 2 freguesias for a baby Jose born to pais incognitos
 on 1 Jan 1830.

 I'm always suspicious of the January 1st date.  Too convenient.  But you
 can look, nevertheless.

Lyn, what is Jose's last name, I realized you don't know his parents names
and that's what your looking for.

Is it SILVA or SILVEIRA? Silvaria could be a name but I believe is a
misspell. A very common name in Central Group and Western Group is
SILVEIRA, and of course Silva.

Lyn,

I've worked on many Azores to Australia and New Zealand families.

I agree with Cheri on this. Joseph doesn't know who his parents were, so
there is no family to pursue in Flores.

 Santa Cruz and Lajes are the two concelhos of Flores, meaning he could be
born anywhere on the island.

Going on a needle in a haystack search for a baptism record with no more
information than you already have can't help.

Jose Silveira is one of the most common male names in the Azores, so it
would be difficult to determine when you had the right person.

I'd think it would be better to work through the Trove site to find more
news articles that establish his life in Australia.

Lyn,

I found these records in Flores. I don't know if you can read them but
there is one very  very close of what you wrote. The only question is if
read somewhere he was actually Filho de pais não sabidos then none of
these will serve you, but if that's not the case and you simply don't know
his parents name, and he is Silveira, then there was a very close one.
Around the dates you wrote these are the closest Josephs I found.

Hello. I hope someone can help me. I have been trying to get above this 
part of my Silva, Ancestry. for 8 years, now. But each time I get to my 
Great Great Grandfather, Joseph Silva, I hit a brick wall.  I have been 
told his Parents names, but, each time I check this out. the answers don't 
seem to fit.  So I am asking for some help  to find his Fathers and His 
Mothers Name. Sadly on his marriage certificate it is written Parents 
Unknown.  All his descendants are in place on my Ancestry. All his 
Children,  their Children , and down the line  even to my great Grandson. 
Below is the info I have on my Ancestry.com.au
