Seeking Access to Historical Book: "A History of the Azores Islands" by James H. Guill (1900)

[Genivaldo Gueiros]

Bom dia,

I hope you are doing well. I realize this might be a long shot, but I am seeking access to the book "A History of the Azores Islands: Handbook" by James H. Guill, published in 1900.

Specifically, I am looking for the complete page that contains information about "Maria Anes de Loureiro." If anyone can access this book, your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

The book has many other editions which may also include the same page.

Here is the book on google books which does not give me access to the complete page: https://www.google.com/books/edition/A_History_of_the_Azores_Islands_Handbook/CCYkAQAAIAAJ?hl=en&gbpv=0&bsq=%22maria%20anes%20de%20loureiro%22

Obrigado,

[Gayle Machado]

I have the book and took a picture of the page you wanted. Unfortunately, when I sent it, it came back as undeliverable. Do you have another email address than the one shown below ?

The History of the Azores Islands by Jame H Guill

https://archive.org/details/historyofazoresi0005jame/mode/1up

This book actually has two editions, the first in 1972 and the second in 1993; so it is still under copyright and available for sale at Amazon.

The Internet Archive will let you read the entire book online for an hour if you sign in with a free account (see Sign Up/Sign In at top of page). You can view it again as many times as you like. Use the link above to go to the 1993 edition.

After you sign in the slide bar and arrows to move through the book appear. You can also click on the spyglass at the left and enter Loureiro to find all references to that surname. There are six references to the surname. Maria appears on pages 129 and 131. After you do the search you can use the arrows that appear on either side of the 6 to see all six results. You could always just go to the pages you want without using this feature. You may want to read page 130 as well as the pages before and after the two that show Maria to know more about the family.
