I am not sure on any connection either...but i will definately keep your info on hand in case something comes up. Maria Cristina Bento was born on June 7 1892 and so your years kinda fit. I have ordered some films from the LDS and it should get here in about 3 weeks. I don't know what the names of my ggrandmothers sisters would have been...or even if she had sisters. My last living grandmother doesn't remember much anymore...but i will still try sending a letter to the Azores to see if anyone could ask her about that.
