Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: indices
I think this is an excellent explanation. I've used many of the indexes that appear in various Graciosa registers. Sometimes they are helpful in that they point me to a record. I would like to add that, although I have found most of the indexes at the back I have occasionally found some in the front of the book, so I always look at the first few pages and the last few pages and hope that I'm lucky! They do help but sometimes even if I don't find want I'm looking for in an index I'll look through the records for the years I want anyway just in case there was omission.

You typed somewhere about the 1700s. Sao Miguel passaportes do not go back to the 1700s. Unless you made a typo. You should probably start a new thread, title it with her name, approximate year of birth, and Sao Miguel island. In the body put what research you have done on her in the U.S. Maybe someone has a source for you to check.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: indices
Cheri thanks for your words of wisdom but i have already taken that into consideration. My grandfather was from Lagoa so my thinking is that she was from close by,and the answer is probably in the passports from there,but as you know the years that i want coenside with the years that are missing. my thinking is that she is from the Lagoa area.

Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: indices
Paul, Knowing someone was from somewhere on Sao Miguel (70 or so churches, although a few less churches in the 1770s) is like knowing someone is from the United States and you don't know which of the 50 states to look in. And you can't use Ancestry to search either, as the CCA isn't set up like Ancestry.

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Re: indices
Most of the Indexes I have seen on the films in the Acores are indexed by first name. In an index you will see all the first names of the babies that are baptized arranged in alphabetical order with the parents’ names. They will also appear in chronological order. In this type of index you will have to go down a long list of girls named Maria and look at the parent’s names to find the one you want. Then you will have to go to the book and page to look at the actual record. I have seen some marriage indexes arranged like this as well but they are always arranged by grooms names. So you will see all the men that have a name beginning with Jose followed by their last name and the brides name. They are usually in chronological order. So you will look down the list till you find your Jose de Sousa that married a Maria de Jesus. Once again you will have to go to the book and page to look at the record to see if that is the one you want. I have seen other lists that just list the marriages in order as they appear in the book so you will have to look through the whole list to find the one you want. Indexes at best are spotty in the Acores. Some parishes have good indexes and others have no indexes at all. Some indexes are listed as indexes and others are at the last page(s) of the book and you would have no idea they existed unless you looked.

Thank you Cheri that is what i thought and i am not looking for a John Mello. I have found all my relatives by going to Lagoa St Michaels Santa Cruz now they are spreading out to different parishes and all those are still located on the same island. I have located 19 records so far consisting of Baptizem's, Deaths ,and Marriages downloaded them to my files , translated them. I found all of them by going through every single record one by one there based on the years that i figured they would be from the information that the priest wrote assuming he was correct now i have 5 or six more that should be in a particular parish but aren't .

Hi again Walter, I'll reply to this in public, as it seems others may have the same doubt. You asked if I got 'special' access to create the database. I have no special access at all. I simply use the same tools you use (a web browser). But the browser I use to create the database is a command-line browser, which I can use to scan the page for stuff that interests me. In the case of Portugal on one hand, and the Azores on the other, I simply created two scripts that handle the different interfaces of the websites. Then I dump the information of interest into a database which I use to display the data on the tombo.pt website.

Hi Walter, There are actually two sites, the old etombo.com has been in a standstill since 2011. In mid-2013, I started creating http://tombo.pt, but I only made the web crawlers that index the Azores and mainland Portugal (I still miss Madeira and the special Guimarães archive). But then I stopped working on it after creating the 'daily new stuff' page. I've now created a simple user interface (it will get prettier...). So the standstill in tombo, for the last 6 months was also my responsability. :) Joao C.

Indeed :) It's possible to ask Google not to translate it.. Just hover on top of the translated text for a second, and Google will display a window with a link to "Contribute a better translation".

The site is ready to eventually switch to English without using Google, but I really don't have the time for it at the moment. Joao C.

[AZORES-Genealogy] Re: Indices added to Sao Sebastiao
Rick, I can also recommend that you check my website http://tombo.pt everyday.. If that number in front of "Centro de Conhecimento dos Açores" moves from 4312, just go into the articles below, where the new parish books are listed. I'm running a simple book finder script every 24h, which will guarantee that number to be correct at about 6:00 UTC. I've added a simple in-line translation service by Google, which non-speakers can use to turn the site into their own language. Sometimes with hilarious results, like this case: http://tombo.pt/f/pdl10 Regards, João Ventura On Wednesday, December 18, 2013 5:24:24 PM UTC+1, Richard Francis Pimentel wrote: > > *This morning I look and the Indices for Sao Sebastiao, PD have been > added.* > > > > *Rick* > > > > *Richard Francis Pimentel* > > *Spring, TX* > > *Formerly of Epping, New Hampshire * > > > > *Researching, Riberia Grande, Riberinha, Achada Grande, Bretanha, and > Ponta Delgada, Sao Miguel, Acores* > > > > > -- For options, such as changing to List, Digest, Abridged, or No Mail (vacation) mode, log into your Google account and visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/Azores.
