On the ship Peninsular leaving St. Michael Feb. 19, 1904 arriving NY March 1, 1904. Serafim Moraes 23 Rosa C. Moraes 26 Rosa Barbara Moraes 15 (not sure if her name is correct on this manifest?) Luzia Moraes 17 Maria Moraes 16 The last 2 or 3? girls are listed as nieces. But I found them on CCA site - February 11, 1904 #132: http://pg.azores.gov.pt/drac/cca/biblioteca_digital/PPDL1903-1905/PPDL1903-1905_item1/P34.html Passaportes - Ponta Delgada 1903-1905 > Livro1 > 00000525 And father and mother's names seem to be the same except the next name is Rosa Barbara or Barboza? with different parents.
