Hi,
I habe some sousa ataíde ancestors from Graciosa. Can you send me the original
jpeg of the record you are attaching here? This way is very difficult to read
it.
Thank you in advance.

Good Morning All,
Just a reminder that the Family Tree DNA sale ends at 11:59 Central Time.
Orders must be placed by that time and paid. Any questions can be directed
to the Azores Project administrators. I will be checking this list on a
regular basis today to answer your questions.

Thanks for the reminder, Rick. I finally ordered my husband's DNA kit -
SHARP surname. One question, I ordered the 37 marker for now. I upgrade
as needed. Should I have also joined my husband's maternal surname MCNEAL
project or would that not tell me anything since it is the maternal line?
E
Only the Sharp surname project is relevant. There may be other projects
such as a location project such as Bristol County, MA.

vials, the fun should begin in 3-6 weeks!

Wow ! What a pleasant surprise !
Thank you !!!
You just moved my former brick wall back another full generation.
Is the Flores history book you reference available in English?
I have been avoiding this last family line of mine since I started my family
search back in 1982
Thanks for letting us know, because I ordered mine, I expect it to come in
if not today, then within the next few days. Thanks again!

Here's the details on the whole process of obtaining DNA.
Brand new orders:
When an order is placed for a brand new order (doesn't matter if it's
Y-DNA, mtDNA, or Family Finder), a kit will be mailed out to your home,
either that day or the next day. Sometimes, though, the sales will add an
This is such a reckless comment and should be viewed with contempt.There is no mention of the specific family of Silveira Cardoso in Lajes do Pico being of Jewish origin.All they say is that Silveira and Cardoso are names that were used by Jews when forced to convert.Sure. They picked every name
Thank you very much for the info...Kathy Lee

Kathy LD,
Being a female and going after a great-ancestor line, you'd probably want
the Family Finder test (autosomal DNA).
All DNA tests for genealogy do NOT find living
This subject continues to pluck on very sensitive strings. The historical
documentation does not support a significant number of avowed (openly
practicing, suspected of practicing, or known) Jews in the settlement or
subsequent population of the Azores. You can look at all the historical

I'm pretty sure this is my g-grandpa. He is born 1875 for sure, and I
think this is the only Joseph/Jose Silvia/Silva/Syvlia that showed an 1875

If someone would be able to provide a full translation of the record it would
be greatly appreciated.
Eliseu, I will send the the jpeg of the original copy from the microfilm,
however it is still fairly hard to read.
Thanks,

Cindy,
You can call or write to the Cemetery and they will give you the death date
especially because you have the location he is in at the cemetery and they
like this. If you are real nice to them, they are real nice in return.
They can give it to you right over the phone and also they can tell

That would be great, I have spent enough on death certs that were not him
already lol One relative said he was buried in Oak Grove Cemetery and he is
not according to the cememtery. Not sure where he died possibly Fall River,
New Bedford. He did live in Fairhaven and according to relatives he died
If you do a lot of research in Faial records, you will surely notice many Medeiros families.Many of them undoubtedly also settled in Madalena and other Pico villages.Just now I was looking through the genealogies of the island of Graciosa called:Livro de Genealogias da Ilha Graciosa - Mateus

There is an obit for Jose Silva, whose widow is Margarida Pimentel Silva, on
page 2 of the Dec. 15, 1942 edition of Diario de Noticias. Children are Mrs.

Hemman, Mrs. Frederick Johnson, Jose, George and Alfredo.
Thanks so much for the kind responses, Greg, Eric, John, and E. I'm
delighted to know that Pat's materials seem to have wound up at
UMass-Dartmouth and I'll be contacting the folks suggested to see how the
materials can be researched. Thanks again to all.

Well said John, I have noticed some researchers working hard to prove they

Hi Ralph -- All of my known Silveira Cardoso and Silveira ancestors are
from Pico, not Faial; it's my Freitas line that traces to Flores. In other
words, while we may be related somewhere back there (as are many/most
Azorean Silveira descendants) it's probably not close, given the difference
