Could someone check into death/birth information on the  Cabeca's
listed on Mass vital records from New Bedford.

Cabeca (male) died 1908 and Cabeca Maria G.  died 1910

Also the birth for Cabeca, Maria Vieira born 1900 and Cabeca, Antone
Vieira born 1909.

Thanks,

Steven

E, couldn't take it anymore, had too many records to look up so I renewed my NEHGS membership this week.
 
Steven, this is what I found.
 
Maria G. Cabeca (known as Maria Viera)
Living at 405 South First Street, New Bedford, MA
Age 3 years 11 months 16 days
Died on March 21, 1910 of Laryngeal Diptheria
Birthplace was New Bedford, MA
Father John B. Cabeca born St. Michael, Azores
Mother's maiden name Maria J. Ramos born Flores, Azores
Informant was John B. Cabeca
Burial was St. John's Cemetery on March 22, 1910
E gave the record information which is Volume 74, Page 242
 
Male Cabeca
Address 405 South First Street, New Bedford, MA
Stillborn
Died on November 14, 1908
Father shown as John V. born St. Michael, Azores
Mother Maria J. Ramos born Flores, Azores
Burial was St. John Cemetery on November 15, 108
Informant was John V. Cabeca
Record information again is Volume 73, Page 3
 
Maria Vieira Cabeca birth 1900, Volume 32, Page 327 shows Image Not Available. Can request to correct but they can't always fix it.
Antone C. Vieira birth December 27, 1909 in New Bedford, MA
Father shown as John (Mill Operative) born St. Michael, Azores
Mother shown as Maria Joseph born Flores, Azoers
Volume 582, Page 368
Volume 51, Page 80 is an Amended Record which can't be viewed so most likely the is the one that replaced this record.
 
Joao Vieira Cabeca marriage October 22, 1894 in New Bedford. He was born St. Michael, Azores. Married Maria Jose de Freitas born Flores, Azores. His parents shown as Joao V. C (which I'm sure is Joao Vieira Cabeca) and mother is Cerubina de J (looks like). Volume 442, Page 224
 
Others may be listed under Vieira like Antone was but that would take a little more time to search since there are several Vieira's.
 
Hope all this helps. I'll let you know if they are able to correct the record for Maria Vieira Cabeca.
 
Regards,
Michelle

St. John's Cemetery Book

Third Avenue Section:
Joao Cabeca 1873-1929 Maria V. (wife) 1876- 1948 Joseph V. 1897-1927 Crespim, America 1895-1964

I did not find the children's burial records. It is highly possible they do not have a stone. 2 of my siblings did not have stones as my parents could not afford the burial. They only had buried numbered markers. A few years ago, my siblings and I got together and paid to have stones put on their gravesite. The cemetery made us reimburse them the burial costs that my parents could not pay before we could put stones on their gravesites.

You can call St. John's Cemetery and as you have the dates of death, it would be easy for them to tell yo where they are buried.

I have no subscription to NEHGS right now I was wondering if someone
could also look this up for me? I was looking for a marriage record for
Joao/John (1888-1972) and Mary/Maria Andrade (1888-1977) married about
1906. I have not been able to get to the archive lately and would
greatly appreciate it if someone could tell me if it was in the database.

Hello Jesse,

I searched from 1900-1910 and found five Maria Andrade's and one Mary. Maria
married in 1905 in Marlborough, MA married a Manuel P. Frade; another Maria
married in 1905 in New Bedford married a Manuel Augusto Silva; Maria married
in 1909 in Taunton married an Antonio Costa; Maria da Ceo married 1902 in
New Bedford to Carlos Roderigue; Maria da Conceicao married in 1907 in New
Bedford to Agostiulio (? on the spelling of the first name) Pacheco
d'Andrade; and Mary married 1900 in New Bedford to a Joseph Silva. There
weren't any Joao's or John's listed under the surname of Andrade. There are
two Jacintho's...one married in Fall River in 1906 to a Leopolinda J. Coelho
and Jacintho Vincent Andrade married in New Bedford 1906 to a Mary ? Vieira
"Medeiros".

I also did a soundex search under just the name Andrade for the period
1905 - 1907 and found an Antonio J. Andrade but regret the link is incorrect
so he doesn't show up in the record.

Do you have any other information that would help to narrow it down so I can
help find the record you are looking for? One of their parents names, town
they were married in etc?

Michelle

Hello. I do not have a subscription, (for which I did not even know you COULD subscribe to this site,) but I have a question about your Mary/Maria Andrade.
Would you know whom her parents were and her date of birth??? I have a Maria Andrade in my ancestry and am curious if there is a connection. Thank You
Lisa L

Hi Lisa, Michelle:

I have Joao born 9 Mar 1888 to Jose Pacheco and Rosalina Moniz and Maria
born 2 Apr 1888 to Antone de Andrade and "Maria Rose." Joao was the
Pacheco, so he would probably not be Andrade (though anything is
possible!). I got my marriage year estimate from the U.S. Census records
on which they appear. Joao is said to have arrived in 1902 and Maria in
1903; I've spent hours and hours searching for the immigration
information but to no avail. Joao was from Nordeste Sao Miguel and Maria
from Lagoa. I've posted about them on the list a few times, but no
matches, so I'm trying to research this family from every possible angle.

I believe Maria had a brother, Frank Andrade, b. 1882 who married a
Jovina b. 1886. They may have been married in America and could also be
in the database.

As far as I know, any of this would have taken place in Fall River but I
suppose it's possible it could have been in other Bristol towns/cities.
It may have even been Rhode Island in which case they wouldn't be in the
database, but I do believe it was in Fall River. Any information I have
on this family is from my own research as my grandfather was estranged
from his father's side.

Thanks E for you help,

 

Was it common to have two daughters named Maria?  John and Maria Cabeca had a daughter in 1900 named Maria Vieira Cabeca and then this must be another daughter named Maria G. Cabeca born April 1906.  I knew they would name a child born after the death of another child the same name.  This looks like they had two Maria’s.

 

Thanks,

 

Steven

Most girls were named Maria had a second name. Maria da gloria; Maria Luisa; maria dos anjos etc. They were known by the combination of the two names or by the second name.

Hello Jesse,

You may already have this information but I did find Joao/John's SS death
record showing he passed away in Jan 22, 1972 in Fall River.

Anywho, I wasn't having any luck finding them at NEHGS so I checked their
1910 Census record (Fall River) on Ancestry which shows John, Mary, their
two children living with Antonio & Mary Andre & family. Frank Andrade (age
28) & Jovina (Age 24) are also in this census living with them.

Joao/John & Mary have two children showing in this census; Maria F. &
Manuel. I then checked their birth records and found that the parents names
on Maria's record are shown as John Pacheco and Maria Resereicon living at
731 Woodman...which does match the 1910 census record address. Maria was
born July 3, 1907 in Fall River. Manuel's birth record shows John Pacheco &
Maria Andrey, still living at 731 Woodman. Manuel was born August 20, 1909.

The 1920 Census shows 3 additional children; Joao/John (age 8), William P or
F. (age 5) and Emma (age 3 6/12). William P. was born September 17, 1909 in
Fall River to John Pacheco & Mary Moniza. The address 130 Quarry matches the
1920 Census record. Emma's not going to shown at NEHGS because they only go
to 1915. Couldn't find Joao/John's birth record.

Another child was born after 1915 according to his 1917 WWI Draft record. He
was living at 37 Plain Street, Fall River, MA.

Sorry, that's all I could find today and it's probably information you
already have. I'll try again tomorrow after work.

Regards,
Michelle

Hi Michelle, thank you very very much for all of your help. I did not
know a lot of this. I am going to send you an email if that's okay.

My ggrandfather on my mother's maternal side was Manuel de Andrade de
Almeida Rodrigues b. abt. 1855 from Sao Roque, Sao Miguel.

My ggrandmother Jacinta Amelia b. abt. 1869 on my father's maternal side had
two sisters Emilia and ?. Supposedly Emilia was married, was blind and had
no children. The other sister ? I think married a Melo. One of her daughters
married ? Amaral Vieria and had two daughters and a son. The son died, one
daughter, Maria de Deus (not to make it more confusing, married by mother's
nephew, Jose Borges Tavares lives in Ribeira Grande) the other daughter,
Maria dos Anjos m. Carlos Rodrigues and lives in E. Providence, RI.

I know there are pieces missing here, but could there be a connection
somewhere on either of the Rodrigues?
