Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Velma Cotta
Eric, Thank you, have taken the Family Finder test at FTDNA. Have 3rd, 4th 5th cousins, no 1st or 2nd. Have contacted any who have names or ancestral surnames that sound Portuguese, but no info on Velma. Guess we need a bigger base, more folks testing to break these brick walls.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Help with translation of passport from Braganca, dated March 26, 1917
Any help with translating this passport would be greatly appreciated. This is the passport of the grandfather of my cousin’s cousin. The passport is listed under Francisco Manuel Aleixo on the top left on left page. Francisco is No. 130. This passport would be the fourth passport I found on him. I have found 4/1/1902, 12/22/1910 and 11/21/1919 with his family accompanying him. On this passport, it says that he is going to France and no family is accompanying him. I can’t read where he is going in France or the explanation. I do see where it mentions a decree of some sort. Would this have anything to do with World War 1? Here is the link and the name of the file. So the link will take you to the book, and then you will have to scroll down to find that .tif file. This is a bit cumbersome…I’m sorry but I don’t know of another way to quickly get to the document. http://digitarq.adbgc.arquivos.pt/viewer?id=1289826 PT-ADBGC-AC-GCBGC-PAS-077-1149J_m0484.tif Thank you, Carolyn -- For options, such as changing to List, Digest, Abridged, or No Mail (vacation) mode, log into your Google account and visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/Azores.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Velma Cotta
Cheri, Thank you for taking your time on my behalf, I appreciate it. Velma E. Cotta married Joe Hughes in 1933 in Reno, Nevada. The marriage license application shows her age as 24, residence California. I was born in 1934 in Phoenix, Arizona. Joe Velma were in California after that until they separated/divorced maybe 1936-1938?? Can't find a divorce record. Joe was born in Oklahoma and that is where my grandmother Hughes lived also. My adoptive parents moved several times due to work. Thanks again, Dave On Sat, Jun 13, 2015 at 12:08 AM, Cheri Mello gfsche...@gmail.com wrote: Dave, Please give more information.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Velma Cotta
I was in Sapulpa, Oklahoma on the 1940 census living with Aunt Birdie Hughes and Olga Hughes, my grandmother. In 1935 Los Angeles I must still have been with Velma and Joe Hughes. In trying to find out why they were in Arizona in 1935 I contacted a person who collected playbills from Phoenix. She was kind enough to look through them and there was no mention of Joe Hughes on any of them. They were both trying to get into acting in the early 30's.
