The 2nd time period (1860 or so - 1911 or so) the women didn't have surnames. 
So if they didn't have surnames, I don't force one. It didn't happen there and 
I"m not going to put my American way of research onto a Portuguese naming 
custom.

Yes, most of us now just use the modern spelling. It's a headache down the road 
when you get a few thousand people. Say the marriage says Manoel da Souza and 
Marianna da Trindade, I enter Manuel da Sousa and Mariana da Trindade and I put 
in the marriage note field "married as Manoel da Souza and Marianna da 
Trindade." 
 
De Da DoYeah, if we all used them, then the majority of Portuguese names 
would begin with the letter D! The De Da Do is really a surname prefix. In the 
above example I would enter the names like this:
Given: Manuel da
Surname: Sousa
and for her:
Given: Mariana da Trindade
Surname:
 
Her surname is left blank. I can search by first name in my fully featured 
genealogy program, so it's not a problem at all.

In your opinion, should I record all names with the “modern” spelling for ease

thinking of eliminating the “de”, “da”, “do” since it seems to cause problems 
for my computer program, Familytree, when searching for people with several 
surnames.  Opinions?

Trindade is not her surname. It's part of her given name. Many women take a
devotional name as their middle name.

The 2nd time period (1860 or so - 1911 or so) the women didn't have
surnames. So if they didn't have surnames, I don't force one. It didn't
happen there and I"m not going to put my American way of research onto a

RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] which is correct, "z" or "s"

2019-03-01 Thread 'Sam (Camas, WA)' via Azores Genealogy 
Curious and hoping to learn, Cheri.  Why do you leave the female surname blank 
if it is given?  (Trindade).  I leave it blank unless one is listed in the 
record but; put it in when it shows in the record..

Thanks ,

Yes, most of us now just use the modern spelling. It's a headache down the road 
when you get a few thousand people. Say the marriage says Manoel da Souza and 
Marianna da Trindade, I enter Manuel da Sousa and Mariana da Trindade and I put 
in the marriage note field "married as Manoel da Souza and Marianna da 
Trindade." 

De Da DoYeah, if we all used them, then the majority of Portuguese names 
would begin with the letter D! The De Da Do is really a surname prefix. In the 
above example I would enter the names like this:
Given: Manuel da
Surname: Sousa
and for her:
Given: Mariana da Trindade
Surname:

Her surname is left blank. I can search by first name in my fully featured 
genealogy program, so it's not a problem at all.

In your opinion, should I record all names with the “modern” spelling for ease 
of searching or will that only cause more confusion down the line?  Also, I’m 
thinking of eliminating the “de”, “da”, “do” since it seems to cause problems 
for my computer program, Familytree, when searching for people with several
