1. [AZORES-L] Portuguese Sports figures in the U.S. [1]
I was watching TV today and there was a show about all the Latino baseball players. Today is the first game of the Baseball World Series, so there are lots of things like that. One person caught my eye because he has the same surname as my cousins in Angra. I forgot his first name but the surname was ARMAS. He is a player for the Montreal Expos, I think. The surname Armas is almost only found on the islands of Flores and Corvo. I need to continue my research there some day, but I traced my cousin's ARMAS
2. [AZORES-L] Re: Bulcão in Brazil [1]
Thanks for the info, Chico. To answer your question, the parents of Sebastico Dutra de Faria Bulcco are: Gaspar Gongalves Bulcco, supposedly a Flemish nobleman (but if so, why is he using the name Gongalves?) and his wife Violante d'Utra. I can't seem to make a good guess on the year of birth for Gaspar Glz Bulcco because of the wide variation of birth estimates for his 5 known children. My estimate for the birth of Sebastico Dutra de Faria Bulcco is 1563. Since there are too many unknown dates for other
3. [AZORES-L] Rego Coat of Arms [1]
My first cousin has asked me if I have a description of the Rego family coat of arms. I have looked and cannot find one. My uncle had a description he had found, but it was lost when he passed away. If anyone knows the description of the Rego coat of arms, I would greatly appreciate receiving it.

4. [AZORES-L] "Western Islands" [1]
I am sure that this has been discussed before, but for anyone beginning their research, I'll share something I was reminded of looking for a marriage record for a friend: in many records you will see the place of birth listed as "the Western Islands of Portugal." These are, of course, the Azores. In Rhode Island, I have seen this recorded on birth, marriage, death, and census records. I guess they weren't sure about "Azores." Just a tidbit of our Azorean history. A descendant of the "Western Islanders
5. [AZORES-L] Re: Pico--Simas [1]
To Manuel Simas Simoes I also have Simas relatives in Canada but it will be some time before I get info on them. Also, I won't get to the local Family History Center until next wednesday. Then, I will try to link with your abt 1850 ancestory.
6. [AZORES-L] Re: ALVES vs ALVARES [1]
Luis, Thanks for the added info. Funny how your 1763 date is so close to my 1785 "last" Alvares of S.Roque date. Until you mentioned Alves taking over in about 1800, the thought just never occured to me that Alvares had just about disappeared. But I also have a correction to make.....while digging through old archives and attics, I found a priceless painting, about 2 meters wide and 1.5 meters tall, of a man named Diogo Alves who is depicted in the bow of a small watercraft, standing up straight and tall
7. Re: [AZORES-L] Families from Flores [1]
Cindy, I can think of two people on this list with Pimentel ancestors from Fajc Grande or Fajczinha next door. I'm sure they will contact you now. But in case they miss this exchange, they are: 1. Richard Pimentel 2. John Vasconcelos I already checked my records when your first message came through for the Thomas family there. I had done lots of research for someone named Thomas from Flores (Fajazinha) and thought maybe it was also your family. But it wasn't. I
8. [AZORES-L] Two marriage dates [1]
I have recently run into a situation where one has two marriage dates. One civil and the other in the church. My Tia Maria Adalina was married on September 5, 1925 in the Registo Civil, then on September 15, 1925 married in the church. This is the first time I've seen this. Does anyone know whether this was a practice of a certain period of time? If so, when? Was it done on all the islands? Can anyone tell me if your computer program (Family Tree Maker) only has one place for one marriage date,
9. [AZORES-L] Mark Portugal [1]
Mark Portugal is now with the Boston Red Sox. Did not have a good year. Mario
10. [AZORES-L] Re: ALVES vs. ALVARES [1]
My latest ALVARES is Maria Jose ALVARES born in Ribeiras, Pico on December 21, 1813. She was the daughter of Jose Silveira ALVARES (Also known as: Joze Silveira Alves) and Josepha Brigida Francisco VALIM. Both of Ribeiras, Pico. Hopefully this helps instead of adding confusion. Hal King
11. Re: [AZORES-L] Pico--Simas [1]
Caro Manuel Simas Simoes, I am very happy to see all this information about your Simas people. To help you out, I checked my marriage database for Lajes and I am certain of one of these three things: 1. There is a mistake in the 2nd given name of your ancestor known as "Maria Francisca" OR 2. This couple married after 1875, the last year on LDS microfilm. OR 3. They married somewhere other than Lajes, Pico. If #1 is the case, your ancestors married in 1873 when a couple named Antonio Silveira de Simas an
12. [AZORES-L] Lusaweb [1]
Hi List Is anyone having problems accessing Lusaweb. I have not been able to since Saturday. I would write Mr. Sanchez but I can't get his email since I can get into Lusaweb. I am wondering if it is my webtv. I am getting the impression if it is not Microsoft Webtv will not access. I think this may be a new problem and if so I need to make some changes. Any info out there.
13. [AZORES-L] Re: Passenger list [1]
Hi Everyone, Thanks for all the replies about this problem. Strangely there is no one and obvious answer to this. Here is a summary of the ideas and maybe someone more familiar with the capabilities of Works can answer. 1. Save the original file as ASCII then open this file into Word. Yes, this will work, but whatever formatting Arline had will be lost. I would probably have to spend a lot of time getting the columns all nice looking again. 2. Open the file from within Word. Yes, that works, but it reads
14. Re: Fw: [AZORES-L] Churches in Azores [1]
Hi Dan, Well, I truly apologize for thinking it was the site I entered. I was playing around with the web address and ended up clicking on someone else's site. When that happened and I saw links I stopped. I didn't even look to see where I was, that was very sloppy of me. I truly apologize. I too, can not enter Andre's site. Even with playing with the address. There are NO links, just his homepage. Sorry, Judy hap@seanet.com -----Original Message----- From: Dan Keefe To: Judith Pali
15. Re: [AZORES-L] FLERINDA Surname [1]
Claudia, Henriques is more common on Flores and maybe a few on Faial. The FLERINDA name is probably a corruption of FLORINDA and that is just a 2nd given name of a woman, not a surname. Maybe the C. in C. Flerinda was also for Carlota. If so, Carlota Florinda is a very distinctive name and she is probably the one and only person to ever have used that combination in the Azores. Other choices for the C. are Candida, Conceigco, Carolina, and I'm about out of them after those. Doug At 10:00 PM 10/21/1999
16. [AZORES-L] Surnames [1]
Hi Everyone: Some time ago this subject was a topic, however, the only e-mails I can find are "Given Names" and "Diminutive Names". I have just one question, one that seems to be puzzling me. Rodrigo Ferreira da Silva Mello (my Grandfather) his parents read: Fortunato Ferreira de Mello on, so far, his marriage to Rita, and birth and baptismal on 4 records of his children. However, on my Mother's birth certificate of 10/1/1914 it shows his name to be: Fortunato Soares de Melo (Rodrigo is the paterna
17. Re: [AZORES-L] FLERINDA Surname [1]
Claudia: The name is probably Florinda, which is not a surname. Most likely it was her second given name, Carlotta Florinda. Eloise
18. [AZORES-L] Alves Origins [1]
Eloise, Thanks for the information. The Azores is such a beautiful and romantic place, it's a shame that there isn't more information for those of us who are language challenged. I would be interested in something on Flores if you ever come across it. I agree that reading tedious books is a challenge. Tamara
19. [AZORES-L] Pico--Simas [1]
My maternal grandfather originally indicated his name as Manuel Vieira de Simas, but changed it ot Manuel Vieira Simas and then Manuel Vieira Semas. He provided records of his birth as being on November 1, 1858 in Pico. In his church marriage record he provided his father's name simply as Manuel Simas (probably originally Manual de Simas) and mother's name as Anna Carmo (probably originally Anna du Carmo, where du Carmo was not a surname). Both were indicated as being from Pico. My problem resides
20. [AZORES-L] Re: [PORTUGAL-L] Mystery words in translation [1]
I think what is written is, "Diocese of Angra." The island of Sao Miguel is in the Roman Catholic Diocese of Angra.

21. [AZORES-L] Passport records [1]
Hi everyone, Someone write me a question after seeing me and Cheri discussing the passport records, so I want to reply to the list: >Cheri Mello and you were discussing passport records leaving the Azores. Do you have any info about these records from Angra (specifically from Graciosa)? Do you know if Angra will search these records if I send a request? > The passport records for anyone born on Graciosa and departing from Angra, will be found at the Angra archives. If they departed from Horta, they woul
22. [AZORES-L] Re: [PORTUGAL-L] Re: ALVES Origins [1]
Ola Doug, Interesting discussion on the surname "ALVES/ALVARES". I have found both spellings in my lines from Pico, also. Doug, I think that your data base should have a more recent year listed for the use of the ALVARES surname on Pico. I have a ANTONIO MACHADO ALVARES listed as the father of my gt-gt grandfather, who was FRANCISCO MACHADO SOARES. The date listed on his wedding certificate was November 23, 1843 in Lajes do Pico.

Prezado Francisco, A linha esta nco o mesmo em Nobiliario da Ilha Terceira, por Eduardo de Campos de Castro de Azevedo Soares (Carcavellos), volume II, Porto 1944, que diz: 1 - Marcelco ou micer Leco Espinola, casado com Madona Pereta, de quem teve 2 - Lucano ou Luciano Espinola, que vivia na ilha da Madeira em 1513. 2 - Antonio Espinola, viveu tambim na Madira.

24. [AZORES-L] Looking for more information [1]
I just found my grandmother's naturalization records. Maria Izabel Alves arrived at Providence, RI aboard the Madonna on August 17, 1913. I checked the LDS ship's list and it is only a list of names. Anyone know how I go about finding out if there is a list with more information? Tamara
