Antonio, I am wondering if the family records could mean Piedade rather than
Pico? My Lemos family is from Sao Jorge. I have just started looking at this
Borba line so really just posted my note to see if someone else may have
something that might help me.;) Thanks for your input.

Hi Edna
Piedade is a freguesia on the island of Pico that is where my one ancestor
with the surname Borba was from. Borba is frequently found on the island of
Sao Jorge I have met several people from Calheta Sao Jorge with the surname
Borba If you look on NEPS for Ribeira Seca Sao Jorge you
My experience earlier today looking at the NEPS site is that there are
hundreds of Borba's found. Correia is less common.

This link is of interest because you had Piedade, Pico as a possible origin
for this family. The link for Seraphim here doesn't seem to relate to the
Borba line, but does show that the mother Jacintha Rosa
is from Piedade, Pico
I took a search through the Portuguese newspaper database and found a a
Uniao Portuguesa, 1898 obit listed for a Maria , daughter of Manuel Correa
de Borba and Maria Candias of Boeiro, Sao Jorge. This is a small village
around
Topo.
I followed the John C Borba to his death listing: *BORBA
I have come across a confusion with Pico as an origin a few times now.
Although the census show Pico, and the family lore says from Pico, it has
turned out to be Pico da Pedra in Ribeira Grande , Sao Miguel.

Hi Cheri
That is a surname very rarely found on Pico I have one in one of my line's
in the early 1700's from Piedade it is found much more frequently in Sao
Jorge.
