Re: Res: [AZORES-Genealogy] Sao Jorge research
Cheri, in a way I'm happy for my gaff, otherwise I wouldn't have learned this particularity. Actually is kindda funny, because now that I'm researching my family in other islands I was thinking there were a lot of single mothers in Sao Jorge im comparison to Sao Miguel. (LOL).

Manoel was the child that was born. He was the son of Jorge Machado Deniz and this Jorge Machado Deniz was the sone of another Jorge Machado Deniz. That means that Manoel's father and his paternal grandfather have the same name. It is the Machado Deniz name that interests me.

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] St. Joseph Cemetery in Hayward, CA
Eric, St. Joseph's in Hayward is actually Mount St. Joseph's. It's located at the 1000 block of Walpert Street, Hayward. It is owned and over seen by All Saints Catholic Church, 22824 Second St., Hayward 510.581.2570. If you want to go to the cemetary, you'll need to contact them first as the cemetery is kept locked. I'm curious about your Sao Miguel relatives. I also have ancestors that came from Sao Miguel to Hawaii and some of them are buried at St. Joseph's.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Mt. St. Joseph Cemetery in Hayward, CA
Hi Eric, Welcome to the group. Mt. St. Joseph Cemetery is located on Walpert St. In the olden days, you could only reach the cemetery via Second St. Walpert is the street just past the castle. Now, Walpert runs between Second St and Mission Blvd. This cemetery was begun about 1875 and served the Hayward area for the most part. When I was extracting the record, I heard that because a lot of babies were buried it was sometimes referred to the Cemetery of the Babies and that many people from other areas had their babies buried there. I have the records for the most part from the beginning of the burials until about 1960. At the time I extracted the records, there was one more book and I was not allowed to include that book. It is pretty much true that Catholics buried from All Saints Church were buried there until Holy Sepulchre was started in 1937, I think. The cemetery does not have perpetual care so families had to tend the graves themselves. Now, I think the church does some maintenance; however, there has been a lot of vandalism. If you have any additional questions, just email me privately.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] St. Joseph Cemetery in Hayward, CA
Eric, It is true that the grave stones were put into a database (not the one I did). Many of the stones had been destroyed and were at the bottom of the creek that runs behind the cemetery. If you are looking for someone that may be buried there, they may or may not have a stone. In addition, there is a large section at the back of the cemetery that was known as the poor ground. Almost no stones were found there when I began looking for my uncle who died in 1917 at the age of 3 months. Of course, my grandparents did not have the money for a stone and that is the reason I began looking at the 14 books for the cemetery.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Mt. St. Joseph Cemetery in Hayward, CA
Hi Celeste, How were you able to extract the records? I have been to St Mary's cemetery in Oakland, CA and I was lucky to get the location of my grandparents grave. Do you happen to know if it is easy to get records from the churches. My mother and her siblings were baptized at St Leo's, also in Oakland. While I'm at it, has anyone obtained baptismal information from Mission San Jose, in Fremont CA from the 1880's? Any ideas of how to get information of births of Alameda Co. in the 1880's? Thanks, Tish On Mon, Apr 19, 2010 at 7:14 PM, celeste perry ccgran...@yahoo.com wrote: Hi Eric, Welcome to the group. Mt. St. Joseph Cemetery is located on Walpert St. In the olden days, you could only reach the cemetery via Second St. Walpert is the street just past the castle. Now, Walpert runs between Second St and Mission Blvd. This cemetery was begun about 1875 and served the Hayward area for the most part. When I was extracting the record, I heard that because a lot of babies were buried it was sometimes referred to the Cemetery of the Babies and that many people from other areas had their babies buried there. I have the records for the most part from the beginning of the burials until about 1960. At the time I extracted the records, there was one more book and I was not allowed to include that book. It is pretty much true that Catholics buried from All Saints Church were buried there until Holy Sepulchre was started in 1937, I think. The cemetery does not have perpetual care so families had to tend the graves themselves. Now, I think the church does some maintenance; however, there has been a lot of vandalism. If you have any additional questions, just email me privately.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Priestly Handwriting...
I'm afraid I now need to join the wave of folks here seeking help to decipher a long-ago priest's handwriting...in this case, from the 19th Century, from among the baptismal records for Urzelina on S. Jorge. I believe I have found the baptismal record for my maternal grandfather's father, Manuel Ignacio da Silva / Manuel Enos Sylvia. As an interesting historical sidenote, my great-grandfather operated a photography studio on Dartmouth Street in New Bedford, in his house right next to Rural Cemetery, with his clientele being the Portuguese community of the area. Apparently he became something of a de facto chronicler of the early 20th C. Portuguese community of New Bedford, because several relatives have reported often meeting new Portuguese- American acquaintances who, when they learn of the link to Manuel E. Sylvia, haul out old family photos taken by him, still in the cardboard frame marked with his studio's name. In any event, all we had known was his birth date, that he had come from S. Jorge aged around 18, and that he was the illegitimate son of one Ignacia, who in the U.S. later married an American named Smitz and disappeared from family memory but who had been a teenaged domestic when she was supposedly impregnated by her boss, whom the oral tradition in the family referred to as Eduardo da Silva, allegedly a judge or lawyer with a wife and family. Manuel's wife, Luiza da Silva / Louiza Sylvia, likewise was born illegitimate, to an Isabel who later married in the U.S. a Bento d'Oliveira, she also allegedly having been a teenaged domestic impregnated by the master of the house, in this case remembered as a Jorge da Silva, who was allegedly a lawyer or judge. (I.e., the two purported fathers, Eduardo and Jorge, were remembered as being a lawyer and a judge, but memories faded as to which was which.) In the CCA baptismal records for Urzelina I came across the following record I believe to be Manuel (because the birth date matches and he was from S. Jorge): Urzelina, Baptismos 1871-1879 Livro1 sjg.ve.ur.b- Livro 1874.002 http://pg.azores.gov.pt/drac/cca/biblioteca_digital/SJVUB1871-1879/SJVUB1871-1879_item1/P50.html I have transcribed as follows (using the original 19th C. orthography) what I could make out (and I read Portuguese fine, so the meaning isn't a problem, just the handwriting), but try as hard as I can to decipher it, some of the text remains inscrutable to me (i.e., wherever I have question marks): No. 1 Manoel Aos veinte oito dias do mes de Janeiro do anno de mil oito centos setenta e quatro n’esta Igreja Parochial de São Mattheus da Urzelina, Con- celho da Villa das Velas, Diocese d’Angra de sexo masculino, a quem dei o nome de Manoel, e que foi bapti- zado em caza, por perigo de vida, por Maria Thereza ???, moradora d’esta freguezia, filho natural de ?? e nasceu n’esta freguezia nas seis horas da tarde do dia veinte seis do referido mes e anno, filho natural de Ignacia Augusta Januaria, solteira, , natural d’esta freguezia ??? é parochiana, moradora no Caminho de [Cima?], neto paterno de avós [sic? why not avôs?] occultos, e materno de [José or João?] [Brum? Botelho?], e de Francisca Ignacia. Foi padrinho Au- gusto de [Moniz?], solteiro, trabalhador, natural da freguezia de Santa Cruz, Concelho da Lagôa na Ilha de São Miguel, Diocese supra referido, morador nesta freguezia de São Mattheus, ?? ? da Nossa Senhora das Dores com cuja corôa ?? cabeça do baptizado José Antonio da Silveira Barcellos, ???, ?? d’esta freguezia, os quais todos sei ??? os proprios ??? em duplicado este ???, que depois de [dez?] dias ? referido e padrinho comigo e não ? ??. O Conego Vigario Antonio [Nunes?] de ??? In addition, the reference to the padrinho from S. Miguel, Augusto the laborer, makes me wonder whether he was in fact the natural father. There's apparently no madrinha; would this have been unusual, naming a padrinho without a madrinha? I believe it was Pat Amaral who told me years ago that the biological father, if of some social stature, was often the padrinho, even when the father might be listed as pai incognito... Have others of you found that to be true? I'm fully prepared to accept that Eduardo da Silva and Jorge da Silva, the judge and the lawyer, may simply be family history fictions created to soften the illegitimate births of Manuel and Luiza and raise their perceived status. Being the first known lawyer in my family, though, I confess part of me hopes one or both of them was a judge or lawyer, a kindred spirit across the years... But is anyone aware of how one could find out the names of all judges and lawyers on S. Jorge during, say, the 1870's? If I could find such a resource, I ought to be able to locate any Eduardo da Silva and Jorge da Silva, if they actually existed... I'm thinking of contacting the Ordem de Advogados in Ponta Delgada to see if they have records back
