Mary Jane, It's highly doubtful that you'd find Silvia as a surname. More likely it would be Silva or Silveira. Both appear in the Sao Mateus records. Gayle > On Mar 10, 2017, at 3:16 PM, Mary Jane Goss wrote: > > Information from a death certificate in Falmouth Mass

Interesting. They used to transfer books over to the archive in years divisible by 5: 2005, 2010, 2015. So they'd get 5 years worth of books. Now it's yearly? I haven't been over there in many years to find out. Here's the email for the archive in Ponta Delgada: bpar.pdelgada.i...@azores.gov.pt

The Ponta Delgada archive is a pain. Many of the freguesias online end around 1905 or so. They should now have the books up to 1910. Maybe 1915. You should contact the archive for a 1908 record. See if their email address is on their web site. I'll look for it when I get home, unless someone else
