If he jumped ship, I doubt you will find any record of that. The first

I do appreciate a Port. Even though it is called a Port wine, normally

Since whaling was a trade, when they arrived here they may have continued
working as whalers here. There were many shore whaling companies along the
Califonia coast from the 1850s to 1900. I've seen census sheets that listed
the settlement showing which island the azorean men were from.
also thought you wanted the whole group so you can take me off the Porto
