Researchers Available For Hire


From time to time, I may receive information from people offering to do research for others. I would like to pass that information along on this web site in the hopes that it may be helpful to other researchers who might need help from someone who actually lives in the Azores and has easier access to many of the records.


**** I am not necessarily making a recommendation that anyone listed on this site do research for you. The people listed here as researchers have simply contacted me and asked that an ad for their services be included on this web site.
