These look similar to the Lomba da Maia Sousa Bonito's, yet they do not match. Do you have any dates or time lines? Is this the same Manuel de sousa Bonito cc Maria Isabel, Ponta Garca, Aug 19- 1819; Their descendants used Bonito in Lomba da Maia. JR On Monday, November 25, 2019 at 9:39:44 PM

Dear Ana and JR, It is my understanding also that Bonito started out a nickname. My father’s baptism record lists him as Eduardo Couto Bonito, and my grandfather is listed on his marriage record as João do Couto Bonito. My family dropped the Bonito when they came to the U.S. I would be

If I may, who was Manuel Lourenco Bonito married to? I have some Bonitos in my files and would like to see if they are related. Bonito means pretty and fine, but it is also a fish, a kind of tuna. And may be the source of the nickname, as many people were fishermen. JR On Sunday, November 24,

Hi Ana, The Azores government digitized what was available to them. For the island of Sao Miguel, that was up to 1905. After 1905, you have to use the Civil Registry for Ribeira Grande. If you are still a Portuguese citizen, you may be able to order the records online, provided you have a name

Hi Ana, Photography didn't begin to become affordable until the late 1800s onwards. You won't find any photos for the early 1800s into 1700s. The Azores government digitized their records and they are online. It is much easier to access them through tombo.pt. You can type "lomba da maia" in the
