Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Francisco de Brum and Isabel da Conceicao--Pico

Judy, Francisco de Brum had a brother Manuel Pereira Caxeta Bagaco* II *who married Maria Joaquina. I am trying to find his birth right now. I will check the matches. If I remember correctly, I have some other matches for Pico. Thank you. On Tue, Sep 19, 2017 at 2:43 PM, Judy Thompson

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Francisco de Brum and Isabel da Conceicao--Pico

I don't know of any relatives connected to San Miguel. If there are, it must be far back or else descendents moved there. If you are related to Francisco and Isabel, we are related with 2 links on Pico. If you did Family Finder, see if I or my aunt, Alzira Rose, are matches. My mtdna is an

Sandra, once the mtDNA database (for Full Sequence, which is what you took) reaches critical mass, they think about half will be within a genealogy time frame. Your top 2 mtDNA matches also took Family Finder (it says FF after their name). So I checked to see if you matched them on Family Finder.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Francisco de Brum and Isabel da Conceicao--Pico

Judy, I have Francisco's birth. It was the first one I found, but I could not decide because of the extra name. Thank you for Isabel's birth. Do you if these relatives connect with anybody on Sao Miguel? I am going to try to contact my mtDNA match again. We are a "o" genectic distance match.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Learning to speak Portuguese

Thank you everyone for your suggestions and information. My cousin is excited to get started trying to learn the language of our ancestors. I knew if I brought the question to the group I would get some good suggestions and I sure did! I love this group! Thanks for your help! Have a great day!

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Learning to speak Portuguese

In preparation for my first trip to Azores and Lisbon in 1994 I took a semester of intensive elementary Brazilian Portuguese at NYU. I didn't realize there would be a big difference between the languages of Brazil and Portugal but there are. For one, the use of second person singular você but not
