Lorraine,
If your dad was here for the WWI Draft Registration or WWII Draft Registration
and his name was changed by then, try using that for proving his name change.
Also, what about his U. S. citizenship records? Most of the name changes were
probably not legally changed.

Thank you, Cheri. Well I spent several days and nights researching this record
from 1864 (which would have made her 16) to 1840 (which would have made her 40
years old) and I did not find a record for her and I am about cross-eyed now.
Why is there no record?? I have no idea so I will try
Thank you, John. I am going to send you the record I have that lists
Valerio to your personal email address. Hope that's OK. Maybe there are 2
of them???

Thanks for the Azores DNA breakdown. I still have difficulty understanding

Thank you, Carlos, for the translation. It is difficult to read the writing
so it could very well be as you note and I think I now know what he was
trying to say since I noticed it had the word nada before Mai and so I
believe it means the person had no mother i.e. the mother was deceased.
I thought it would be interesting to know who visited the Azores in the year
2009(only) or plan to visit in 2009 and which islands you visited.
