    Ó mar salgado, quanto do teu sal
    São lágrimas de Portugal!
    Por te cruzarmos, quantas mães choraram,
    Quantos filhos em vão rezaram!
    Quantas noivas ficaram por casar
    Para que fosses nosso, ó mar!
    Valeu a pena? Tudo vale a pena
    Se a alma não é pequena.
    Quem quere passar além do Bojador
    Tem que passar além da dor.
    Deus ao mar o perigo e o abismo deu,
    Mas nele é que espelhou o céu.

      Epa, mas por que estou a falar em ingles ? Assim como voce, tenho ancestrais por aqui. Felizmente por meu avô ainda ser vivo na época, fomos capazes de reunir a sua documentação e conhecer parte da familia que se mantivera por aqui.

    As soon as I started watching the video, it is clear that you are really Portuguese, but after realizing that you came from Brazil, it is also clear that you are really Brazilian! And then I remembered this fact: 80% of the Brazilian population has Portuguese DNA, some more, some less.

    I found my great-grandfather's emigration record to Brazil through My Heritage, including the ship. I also found birth records from a few of my ancestors (lots of Annas de Jesus and Marias de Jesus too). Usually the districtal archives have their collections online and you can research a lot from home, that's where I found most of the info and for free. Good luck on your journey

      There are SO many Ana de Jesuses, we actually found one in the boat records who went from the same port in Portugal to the same port in Brazil and settled in the SAME NEIGHBORHOOD as my great grandmother. My mom prematurely got excited she had found the records but it ended up not being her.

      It is in the roots, not the branches, that a tree's greatest strength lies. If you know where you are from, it is harder for people to stop you where you are going. A tree's beauty lies in its branches, but its strength lies in its roots.
      ....It doesn't matter how high you fly with the biggest wings you have, but remember that your soul is still trapped in the roots in the ground where you fell and you were so small and so empty.”

    The Portuguese were the pioneers of the trans atlantic slave trade. Almost half the African slaves taken to the "new" world were taken to Portuguese colonies. That has nothing to do with you, but many Portuguese were actually born in Africa. They were forced to leave in 1974 because many African were still living in slave like conditions.
    As much as folks like to romanticize Portugal's history, it was very cruel and brutal.
