Dear List I see that a lot of people are referring lately to a book called "Arquivo Historica da Madeira". Does anybody have any idea where I can get a copy of this?

Dear List, I too have D'Abreu on Madeira, mostly from Ponto do Sol in the late 1800s, but as I have move further back, family is also located in Ribeira Brava, Camara do Lobos, Lugar de Baixo, Serra da Agua, S. Vicente. Tabua etc... In doing further research the first known d'Abreu to the island is Beatris back in the late 1400s. I have participated in the National Geographic DNA project and up loaded my results to the Madeira project. I have not checked it for awhile but at last look I was the only one reporting the E3B haplogroup. I found this very interesting as this is the mid east, southern med and northern Africa strain. I have a great number of names from the island, to numerous to name. But if anyone is interested in sharing or thinks I can help them let me know, I have gone back as far as 1558.

I believe that I purchased my copy from the Nassa site. Try that site because they offer other books as well.
