Hi Sam, Yes, to the connection to Al Rose that Pat and I have. It does come through The Rosa side of his family. Manuel Rosa born Feb 15, 1873 is our cousin. I do have Fraga grandparents though. Gaspar Fraga married Isabel Melo both are from Terceira, their daughter Maria Antonia Fraga was born in Santa Barbara, Cedros, Faial and this is my line as well as Pat's. Maria Antonia Fraga is both Pat and my 8th great grandmother. She married Antonio Duarte Jul 25, 1633 in Santa Barbara, Cedros, Faial, Azores. Antonio Duarte is also Al Rose, Butch's 9th great grand father and our (Pat and I) 8th great grandfather.

(Al Rose) Butch's grandmother, Mary Amelia Fraga (Frazer) and my grandfather, Antonio Fraga, were siblings. I suspect you are related to Butch thru his Rose line. I say this because, to my knowledge, neither Butch nor I have found decendents of the other siblings of our grandparents nor do we even know the names of the siblings of our ggrandparents. So, if I am correct and you are related to Butch via his Rose line (his grandmother's husband's line, I would not then be related to either of you. Darn, cause I would really like to make more connections! :-)) All my best, Sam in CA -- Emil Silveira Researching: AREAS; Faial, Pico, Sao Jorge, Terceira, Brazil, and Prince Edward Island, Canada SURNAMES: Silveira, Dutra, Avila, Moitoso, Medeiros, Rodrigues, Fialho, Goulart, Silva, Evangelho, Enes, Machado, Correia, Homem, and McLeod to name a few. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected].
