Some of the Portuguese worked very hard for many years and have risen to positions of high standing in the community and sporting world. Many of the Portuguese played cricket and soccer in the 1940s and 50s and were the founders of many sporting clubs and teams.

There's also a small number of persons of Native American Indian descent on St David's Island.

The Portugese came mainly from the Azores. They originally came to Bermuda as gardeners and farmers. Many still work in these trades, but today you'll find them in all professions.
