Was this a coupon you received because you gifted a coupon and that was used? 
Or you had purchased another kit?.  I received a coupon because I purchased a 
kit. When I received it the expiration date was 1 Dec but when I looked at it 
on my page it said expired 3 Dec. I thought it strange but did not use the

They are on Central Time. I have no idea where you retrieved the coupon
from. If it's from the public web sheet, it probably was already used by
someone else even though you claim it. That's why I have our own clearing
house where I have it organized and sorted and I know which coupon has come
from where and who it goes to.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Hawaiian Deaths/Burials

2017-12-02 Thread Cheri Mello
The only way to get to Hawaii on a passenger ship was to leave from Ponta
Delgada on Sao Miguel island in the Azores. If you lived on a different
island, you had to get to Sao Miguel. Ships also left from Funchal on
Madeira. That is why Hawaii has so many from those 2 islands.

Azores he was captain of the ship and was either going to or from Azores when 
he became ill and either died on board or after they docked in Hawaii and was

person, a relative, with exactly the same name and also a ship's captain.  


  Here are the details:  Manuel Pereira Domingos, born 1 June 1843 in Ribeiro 
do Meio and lived in freguesia of Lajes on Pico.  Assumption is that ship was a 
whaler but not confirmed.  All agree he is known to have sailed in and out of 
Boston regularly.  Have narrowed down his death to between 1903 and 1923.  The 
other Manuel Pereira Domingos was born in Lajes on 3 Dec 1867 and immigrated to

 When the ships came into port, each passenger and family group was processed.  
If a person died aboard ship, it was noted in the consulate logs.  I am not

  The LDS Family History Library has these in their collection.  I think 
they are catalogued under something very vague like Index to the Portuguese.


  I think the Hawaii State Archives also has them.



  As Cheri said, death records prior to 1910 are hit and miss for Hawaii.  
If you find that they are listed as deceased on the consulate logs, it may be

onto another kit. Or from one kit to a brand new order (for someone who has
never tested before). And the shopping cart isn't always clear either (it
can suck in your name since your probably placing the order on your credit
card).

If you make a mistake, DO NOT email the Help Desk. They have a backlog
during sales and it may take them a couple of days to answer you. Depending
on when you placed the order and when batching occurs (it is now on Mondays
and Wednesdays at 5 pm Central Time), it's going to be hard to stop
something that is already in motion. If you make a mistake, email me right
away. Explain what happened. Include your phone number and how late I can
call you (and your time zone). If I don't understand your email (you may be
frustrated and not being clear enough), I'll need to call and then I can
email through the Project Administrator avenues and try to get it resolved
before the order gets to the land of no return!

So be like Elmer Fudd. Be very, very careful! You are placing a DNA order!
Any questions, just email :)
Cheri Mello, Family Tree DNA Project Admin

Hi E,

I had looked at the whaling museum crewlist several years ago and still 
don't see a match there but will be checking into the other list of whaling 
related websites you sent.  Thx E.

Judy
