Virginio Pacheco

[Gonçalo Marques]

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to track the paternal line of a Y match but I'm not very experienced with the research in the US and I'm having trouble finding the trasition of the line from the US to S. Miguel.

I'm looking for the patrilineal line of Virginio Pacheco that you can see here in the 1930s census

According to his, he, his wife and a son (whose name I can't read) came from Portugal.

I also have this info

Name

Virginio Pacheco

SSN

025-10-6528

Last Residence

Methuen, 01844, Essex, Massachusetts, USA

Born

7 Sep 1897

Died

Jul 1975

State (Year) SSN issued

Massachusetts - Before 1951

I believe this line comes from the western part of S. Miguel, so I looked into the baptism records of 1897 and 1898 for Ajuda da Bretanha, Pilar da Bretanha, Santo Anónio além Capelas, Mosteiros, Ginetes, Candelária and Feteiras. I found only one Virginio and he was not Pacheco.

Did someone on the group bump into a Virginio Pacheco?

Do you have ideas on whatelse I could do to proceed?

Thank you

Gonçalo

This Virgino was born in Portugal (assuming Acores). There are many parishes and unless you have any information as to what parish he belongs to it will take time as there are over 70 parishes on Sao Miguel alone. I would try and find when he immigrated to the us and then check the passports leaving the Acores which will name the parish he is from.

Thanks Richard

I like that idea very much.

I would I go to try to find when he immigrated and then to check the passports?

Yes perhaps start searching the Ellis Island website (make sure you use name spelling variations) If you find him there you will have a date to go to the passports for the Acores on Tombo or CCA website.

No luck in the Ellis Island website.

Only 3 Pachecos with first name starting with V, and 2 Virginio

but the ages don't match what I have.

Any other ideas?

Gordon,

 

Portugal as place of origin is too broad.  If the information you have is certain that they’re from Sao Miguel, then the Census may state year of arrival in the US?  If it does, use that to check the passports out of Sao Miguel.

If you have Ancestry membership, search for ship manifests around that time period.

I agree with Margaret, Look in the column 22 of the 1930 census you show and it will tell what year he immigrated It will also show if he is still an alien or has been naturalized. If he was naturalized his paperwork will say where he was born.

Goncalo,

Since you are unfamilier with US research, you need to go to the AzoresGenWeb  site here: http://www.worldgenweb.org/azrwgw/ and read the articles on how to do research in the US. You need the village and these aids will tell you the type of records available to help.

Thank you all

I followed Margaret's sugestion. Found that the census states he entered the US in 1915.

So I'll start looking in the list of passports.

I'll be back with the results.

Thanks

Gonçalo

Was Virginio's middle name Nicolau?

Hi Joe,

I don't have information on a middle name. My email is gjmmarques at gmail.com

Can you email me so that we can share information?

Cheers
