This study is interesting but it doesn't collect enough samples from the
Central and Western Azores. The MtDNA study is much more thorough and fair
in that respect although it labels all samples with origins in Africa as

My mothers generation Maria was also a popular middle name. I've heard of
several families where all the girls either had a Maria for a first name
or a middle name. No matter what those parents were
determined all those girls were gonna be Maria one way or another!

It depends on the time period and the history of ships. It took the
Mayflower (in the 1600s) 66 days to get from England to Massachusetts. The
Titanic (in 1912) was to take about a week. My ancestors came to America
in 1901 and 1903 and I think that one of them was about a week and the

According to family tradition, she came without her parents. She married
in California at age 16. Census records suggest she came possibly as young
as 8. Would she be listed individually? I haven't seen any ages that are

It depends. If I'm look for a Maria, no, I won't scan the names if I knew
the freguesia. If I didn't know the freguesia, I'd have to scan for the
name. If it's a more uncommon name, I may scan the records for that. So it
just depends.
