Lagoa, Sao Miguel, Azores: Translation & Research Da Costa Furtado & De Jesus Oliviera Family Help!

[Jennifer Furtado]

Hello,

I recently have been researching my family tree to try and trace my portuguese family history. My fathers oldest cousin that lives in New Bedford, MA Gilbert Silva, had started doing a lot of research and went back to Sao Miguel October 2014. I've been able to go back to my grandfathers parents and hoping to go further. If anyone is interested in helping or know an easier way to search the books on records, any tips or help will be greatly appreciated. I am trying to figure out which ship and where my great grandparents specifically came from

Grandfather: Julio Costa Furtado (b. 1925 New Bedford, MA - d. 1973 San Diego, CA) - Picture Attached of my Grandparents that married January 8, 1946 in New Bedford, MA

Great Grandfather: Manuel Costa Furtado (b. Sept 16, 1883 Lagoa, Sao Miguel - d. ????)  - Picture Attached

Great Grandmother: Rosa De Jesus Oliveira (1891 - ???? )  - Picture Attached

* Looking for Manuel Costa Furtado & Rosa De Jesus Oliveira Marriage Record in Sao Miguel

* Looking for Ship Records of Manuel Costa Furtado and Rosa De Jesus Oliveira, they settled in New Bedford, MA and not sure if they took in a ship to Boston. 

Great Great Grandfather: Antonio Costa Furtado 

Great Great Grandmother: Francisca ???? 

*Found Baptism Paperwork for Manuel Costa Furtado but cannot translate it (Attached)

Grandmother: Genevieve Rose Martin (b. 1928 New Bedford, MA - d. 1972 San Diego, CA) - Picture Attached of my Grandparents that married January 8, 1946 in New Bedford, MA

Great Grandfather: Manuel Rose Martin (b. 1869 Pico - d ????)

Great Grandmother: Mary Sylvia

Great Great Grandfather: Antone Rose Martin (Pico)

Great Great Grandmother: Mary Ann ???? (Pico) 

My DNA Kit is also on Gedmatch.com F345218

Thank you in advance!!!!

Hi Jennifer,

We are related according to the Family Finder as 4th cousins!

I think your ancestor Antonio da Costa Furtado also went by Antonio da Costa Vieira.

Here's what I have found about him:

Antonio da Costa Vieira x Francisca de Jesus – married in Rosário da Lagoa on 23 feb 1881 – CCA #36 (58)

1. He was 27, born in Matriz de Santa Cruz da Lagoa, son of João da Costa, from Matriz da Lagoa, and Isabel Candida, from Matriz da Ribeira Grande.

Antonio was born on 23 march 1853 in Matriz da Lagoa – CCA #94. Godparent: Morgado Pedro Jácome Raposo Bicudo Correia, from Matriz de Ponta Delgada.

2. She was 24, born in Rosário da Lagoa, daughter of Manuel de Medeiros Santos and Maria Ricarda, from Rosário da Lagoa.

Hi Manoel Cesar Furtado,

We might be 4th Cousins listed in Family Finder, but Antonio da Costa Furtado was my Great Great Grandfather and Father to Manuel Da Costa Furtado who was born in 1883, so I don't think it is possible that Antonio Da Costa Vieira is the same person you think he is.  I appreciate the help very much and I am sure there is a connection somewhere, I am not familiar with any relatives in Brasil but it could be that either my Great Grandfather Manuel Da Costa Furtado had siblings that went there.

Hi Manoel,

You were right. My Dads Cousin went to Lagoa and that church and was able to confirm. Very interesting. Were you able to put the connection of us as 4th Cousins?

Hi,

I cannot find the marriage between Antonio Carreiro Pimentel and Maria Rebelo, from Nordeste.

My 6th great-grandmother is Maria de Pimentel, Teresa's sister, mentioned in your email. Here is her baptism record:

http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-ND-SAOJORGE-B-1719-1731/SMG-ND-SAOJORGE-B-1719-1731_item1/index.html?page=41

Maria de Pimentel married Manuel da Costa Pimentel:

http://culturacores.azores.gov.pt/biblioteca_digital/SMG-ND-SAOJORGE-C-1744-1755/SMG-ND-SAOJORGE-C-1744-1755_item1/index.html?page=56

Manuel da Costa Pimentel is the son of Mathias da Costa, who is the son of António da Costa Furtado and Isabel Salgueiro Arruda (this line is described by Rodrigo Rodrigues and matches the records that I've found). 

The problem is that I really cannot find the marriage record of Antonio Carreiro Pimentel and Maria Rebelo. They were born in S. Jorge, Nordeste, as stated in various records. I know that there is a page missing around the time that they were likely married (early 1700s), but if you have more information on this line I'd sure appreciate your help.

Thanks,

Carlos
