this is a very interesting article on the Ponta Delgada SC from Fall River,

Hi all,
It turns out I will be traveling to the Azores for three weeks in July!
I'll spend some time on São Miguel, Faial, Flores, and maybe Pico. I will
be on Flores for the Festa do Emigrante. While I am there I'd like to do
some family research. Does anyone know if there is an accessible
Steve,
The records for Flores are held in the district archive. The district
archive for Flores is in Horta, on Faial.
Records are organized by freguesia (village). So you need your freguesia to
begin searching.

Steve,
The census says he came to the US 1865. I found the following record
showing someone by this name (using the De) coming to the US via
Australia. He was a Greehand on the ship. Could this possibly be him? Age
doesn't match but sometimes they are incorrect. When did he go to
Australia?

The Caetano de Freitas on the Pacific whaler is not his guy, but may be his
relative. There seem to be two Caetano de Freitas groups in Flores. One
centered in Lajes and Lomba, and the other on Santa Cruz
With all the resources available for Flores
If you are going to Pico try the fregesia of Calheta. It was a whaling
community nd a lot of sea going young men left from there. There is a large
Freitas family there. Boa sorte!

We just received the MtDNA results for my husband's mother, Mary Elsie
Amaral. Only the basic test was performed but there were no matches at HVR1
and HVR2. There were over 1000 matches at HVR1 alone and while that is
interesting, it is not that helpful. She is a part of the Family Tree DNA
Good Morning Patricia,
In order to have an mtDna match that is genealogically significant you
would need to upgrade to Full Sequence even then you could only verify
whether the match is is more recent or distant through comparison of
genealogical records an HRV1 match has a 50% chance of

Hello Maria Natalia,Apparently this gives a lot of confusion.In this instance, the groom was a widower and is said to be related in the 1st degree of afinidade.To understand that, one must realize being related in the 1st degree is like two siblings. So of course, these people are not siblings.

I have most of this information, but not all. I did not have Miguel do
Monte's parents nor some of the children's marriages. But, I never got to
read the records myself, so that's what I'm doing now. I have other

I don't work that much with Flores records, but the records that I have

microfilm. All the Flores records are on the CCA site (up to 1910).
However, there are damaged books, books where the ink bled through, books
