RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] name help

2014-07-29 Thread Eliseu Pacheco da Silva
PINÉ not PINE!!!

PINÉ is the portuguese word for day “thief” (The Milhafre bird is a day 
“thief”. Hunts on the day light). The word PINÉ (not pine) also means brasilian 
plant tiritica (Tinunculus sparvernis). This word is of “brasilian” usage.

The ones who carry this word as a surname most likely had it because they had 
been immigrated in Brasil or… :)

 

Please be aware of the diacritics. In your ancestors language it changes the 
whole sense of a little word !!!

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] name help

2014-07-29 Thread Cheri Mello
Eliseu,

I don't know that Dano types with diacritics. I know he meant Piné and not
Pine (as in the tree).

Interesting point about the Piné name.  As far as I know (in my research)
the Mello Pinés stayed in Ribeira Quente until they left for America.  I
don't know of any that went to Brasil and back to São Miguel, but I haven't
researched every single one of them either.  As far as I can tell, we
Mellos started to take over the freguesia so they started compounding the
surname or adding an alcunha to differentiate themselves from one another
(wy too many Manuel de Mellos in that freguesia!)

Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Name help

Hello,
I hope someone here could offer some help with the father's last name 
abbreviation for the marriage.  What I read from the marriage is: Pedro de 
Faria son of Pedro [Joao/Goas] and his wife Maria Pereira.  I'm not sure is the 
last name is an abbreviation or just Joao.
The ancestor is Alferes Pedro de Faria (b. ~1729 d. 18-Apr-1784) married to 
Rita Maria Andrade.  I found a Pedro born on 17/19 Jan 1729 son of Pedro 
Goncalves(z) and Maria de Freitas which falls within his birth range however 
there is a discrepancy with the parents names.  It is possible that the father 
is Pedro Joao Goncalves and the mother Maria [Pereira de Freitas/de Freitas 
Pereira].

It's Joao. See the accent above Joao in the marriage record. That's the way 
the priest did his accents. It is identical the Roiz for Rodrigues. And 
note that J is identical to the J in Jose, in the record below. There is 
 an name Goas or Gois or Goias, etc, but this looks like Joao, Very clear. 
His full name is likely Pedro Joao Faria

I don't see the discrepancy. Pedro Joao Gonsalves could also use Faria 
alternately with Gonsalves, or the name may have come from his wife, Maria 
Pereira. Note that the godparent, Joao Pereira da Costa may be related to 
Maria Pereira. If there are no other possible matches, this is likely the 
person you want. Better still, make your search easy and look for the 
marriage of the parents of Pedro Joao and Maria Pereira.and Manuel de 
Andrade Miranda and Maria Roiz. It could save you a lot of work and reveal 
which family uses the Faria name.
