My father, Luis Teixeira Sousa, is from Santo Amaro. I was there with my wife on our honeymoon earlier this year. I got to see most of Sao Jorge, including Santo Amaro and the house in which my father was born and raised. His father was Manuel Teixeira Sousa after whom I am named. I found Sao Jorge to be a breathtakingly beautiful island and I cannot wait to go back.

Thank you for this great site. I am looking for any information regarding family members of my maternal grandmother Ernestina C. deBorba from Norte Pequeno. I was in Sao Jorge in 2001 with my daughter and couldn't believe how beautiful it was. As a child I heard about the old country and pictured a barren island. What a wonderful surprise. The people were wonderful.

Hi,my family tree was planted on sao jorge thanks for the great pictures.

Great web site, I am a musician in the Heart of Jesus Portuguese Phiharmonic

Hello.

Grandfather John Pereira Pires (went by family nickname of Janela i.e. my Geniella)from Beira. Family still there, I understand. Would love to see photographs of Beira, and learn more about its history.

Thanks,

Mike

I was born in Beira, Sao Jorge and I have not been back there for 33 years. I loved your website and seeing all the pictures, I do hope to make it back some day.

Thanks for the mini trip.
