Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Margaret Borba
Hello Helen, Thank you very much for your offer. It's much appreciated. This line is one that I haven't had much success with. I emailed a potential relative on Ancestry.com back in Oct. 2009 and just received a reply that she is a relative. Also, found out that Margaret would go by her nickname Minnie, which is why I had troubles finding any information on her. Once I added Minnie to my data base and her 1st husbands name of Dutra I was then able to find the children though under the birth index of Dutro but at least it was there.

Yesterday afternoon I called the Sunnyvale Library and spoke with the research librarian to see how far back they kept copies of the Sunnyvale Standard (newspaper) and was told they have original copies going back to 1913. I was going to wait a few days to see if you came up with a date of death for Lawrence and Lucile before emailing you. THANKS to Pam you now have the 6-4-1914 date. Within the coming week I will go to the library and see if I can obtain additional information for you. I will email you with what I discover and ways for you to obtain the information if there is an article in the Sunnyvale Standard about the deaths. Pam, Excellent link that you provided.

Hi, I sent my cousin an email to show her all of her work was not in vain, and that indeed it is being used by people to trace their ancestors. This is the message I received, and I thought I would share with you. She wrote the book, Portuguese Bermudians. She has just finished more records that should be available through the Bermuda registry as she just got back from there. So for you in Bermuda, you might want to check out her latest stuff.

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Family History Expo
I most likely will not make it to the restaurant, but I will definitely be at the expo. I am looking forward to meeting as many of you as I can. So far, I've only met Celeste. She was kind enough to help me find my great grandparent's graves in Hayward and serve my mother and I a very nice portuguese lunch. I think I will probably make my own name tag that identifies me as a member of the Azores Google Group with a Portuguse flag on it. So if any of you spot a middle aged blond women sporting a name tag with green and red on it, it's probably me. So please, introduce yourself. Did any of you receive anything from the expo like a ticket or something to get in? I didn't so I'm hoping that's because we just sign in at the door.
