Hi All, I'm afraid I haven't been paying attention to this one but the name caught my eye. My grandfather is Jose Ferreira Simoes from Povacao, arriving in New Bedford in the late 1800's. I think they lived on Purchase St. Thanks, Janice

Ferreira Simoes 17, S?, going to her brother-his brother in law Angelo Rebelo da Camara, 680 Water Street, New Bedford, MA. Last Residence: Sao Miguel. Angelo's names is spelled Robulo on Ancestry. I found an Angelo da Camara but he is listed as Angelo Da Conaciaco (person after him is Conceicao) in Ancestry index but he is going to his brother Simao da Camara, Lowell MA on ship Dona Amelia arriving New York May 4, 1901. There is an Ermelinda M Simao 17 coming with a Manuel M Simao 4 from Fajan Cima? St. Michael leaving their father Francisco M. Simao Faja Cima, going to his brother in law Francisco Ferreira 169 Ives St. Providence Ri ship SS Canopic sailing from St. Michaels July 26, 1907 arriving Boston Aug 7, 1907. They are listed as brother and sister. I found a marriage for an Ermelinda Ferreira Simoes 1903, Volume 536, Page 360. I can have a friend look this up and maybe it will tell you where they are from. If you will give me the names of Maria's children, and they were born before 1910, I can look them up for you. There is an Amelia Angelo Tavares Rebello b. 1902. There's a Mary Angelina Rebello b. in Taunton, 1910. Also a Mary Rebello b. in 1900. If you look under the Surname Rebello, there are 83 births between 1900-1910. You can look them up yourself at http://www.sec.state.ma.us/vitalrecordssearch/VitalRecordsSearch.aspx This is only the index but I have a friend who belongs to NEHGS who can look up the actual record if you find one of the children. Not at home but should be later in the day and will get back to you asap. "E" -- Janice M.
