the father of Cláudia was the slave owner.
I've searched the Flores marriage book for the marriage of a Cláudia,
daughter of Florença, but I never found it.

Note that you should still confirm if the actual parish records confirm the
ebook extract, but Mr. Francisco Gomes's knowledge of Azorean paleography
surpasses that of most people. If you buy the book, you'll get to the 1675
Great Brick Wall of Flores in no time.

Those records are part of AD Bragança's archive. As the author of tombo.pt,
the only thing I can tell you is that they'll be available on my site about
12 hours after the archive makes them available on the internet. That's the
good news. As Cheri said, they'll be available in

Hi, Al
None of the parishes disappeared. All 3 are very much in existence, and all
have records in CCA until 1911, as you can see

The solution to that will be quite simple.. Computers will be able to read
cursive eventually (yes, even paleographic cursive...), and then the kids
will simply ask the computer what is written on that page. We're the ones
who have to slave over the records to try to read them.

Hi everyone,
We're down to the final 3 parishes that CCA needs to reach 100% of all
parishes online: Rabo de Peixe, Ribeira Seca and Ribeirinha.
Yesterday, the CCA has published the baptism records for Rabo de Peixe, as
you can see here:
Now they stop in 1905.. Which I guess is all.
They just added them today.. With a bit of luck, they'll have time this
afternoon to add the death records..

Most likely, he can narrow down the candidates to just a few, but for thtat

Hi Pam,
No. You were the first. Note that the death records are not yet online. I
assume they'll be posted within the next few days. According to this site
(http://www.arquivos.azores.gov.pt/details?id=1022489), there's also
perfilhações between 1865 and 1893.
It sure seems they're on track
Death records and 'perfilhações' are now online for Ribeira Grande.. One
single parish to go, and they'll be done with it.

Hello, everyone
The parish records for Ribeirinha (Ribeira Grande - São Miguel) are now
online.
A big applause to the CCA archivists and the LDS volunteers for the work
they did in scanning and making available all the parish records for the
Azores. It's a project that when I started paying
Hi David,
Yes, they still need to upload those for both Horta and Angra. Only Ponta
Delgada has passports on-line.
They could also go back, and re-upload some books which frankly are almost
unreadable nowadays.. I've seen books whose images are basically thumbnails
of the real image, like
the books for
that parish.
I guess we'll start seeing the rest of Faial there.
Keep up the good work, CCA!

tried to search for this, but couldn't find anything
It says 'Exposta na roda pública' on line 8.. Which means she was left on a
foundling wheel.
She was 'dada a criação' (given to be raised) to one Maria Jacinta.
The initial part is the date: 9 of September of 1870.

see the 'Famílias da Ilha das Flores (Vila das Lajes e freguesias da
