David, Here is the Obit from the Modest Bee found at Ancestry.com Historical Newspapers Collection . No luck with which island. I tried to find Lucy's in the Oakland Tribune. but that month is not available. A microfilm micht have it. I would guess the original name spellings to be Jose Faustino and Luzia Neto. It is likely that she did not use the surname, but was Luzia de Conceicao, or de Jesus , da Annunciada etc.
I saw this family on the 1900 and 1920 censuses. Do you have those? Also, Joseph Jr's draft card from 1918 shows his birth date(7 October 1899) as different than the 1900 census ( Feb 1898) It shows him as a self employed Dairyman in Los Banos Eric Edgar > --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Follow the confirmation directions when they arrive.
