João is correct. Some records can only be viewed from a FHC. It doesn't matter if you have a FamilySearch account or not. If you are not accessing them from a FHC, you won't be able to see them. Cheri -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Azores

Also, the Church, in a few weeks or so, will stop all ordering of all microfilm. Thus, the only way to view such is: 1) If it is on FamilySearch; or 2) You visit Salt Lake City if any of your local FHCs don't have it in their permanent file. On Thursday, August 3, 2017 at 4:38:11 PM

Joao, I forgot to mention, if you are in your local FHC, just ask one of the LDS people to get you into the site with the Azores Records and then you can search. It is very slow-going and tedious but sometimes looking at the black on white is easier to read than the scanned docs on the CCA. At
