Immigration - Ship logs

[Kawika322]

I was wondering if anyone knew when I could find ship logs for various ships that took portuguese immirgrants from the Azores and Madeira to California?

I have of course looked through the different passenger manifests and lists, but some there are some details that I was trying to find - such as there were 2 deaths on board of my ancestors supposidly due to accidents, and maybe the ship logs would make note of that and possibly state if they were burried at sea or at a different port.

 

Any info would be helpful.
