But, perhaps we are distantly related further back along the line (a good chance I would guess considering how small Flores is). I have an Anotnio Jorge born in 1674 in Freguesia da Lomba, Flores. I tried to do a quick check to see if I could trace the line to your great grandfather but was unable to. Others in this group might be able to help you out further though. My grandmother was also a Freitas. My grandparents live in San Jose, I would be interested to Good luck, Ben Francisco J Jorge Born: 07 Dec 1872 Fajan Grande, Flores, Azores, Portugal Died: 12 Dec 1863 Merced, Merced, California, USA Note: Worked as farm laborer, worked on making the roads to Yosemite, and was entrusted to bringing any gold found onsite back down from the foothills. Immigrated to California in 1889, worked these various odd jobs to purchase two farms in Merced, CA. He was an alfalfa and sweet potatoe farmer. Leopoldina Lucindo Freitas Born: 16 May 1884 Fajan Grande, Flores, Azores, Portugal Died: 19 Mar 1973 Merced, Merced, California, USA Note: Leopoldina's father was Jose Lucindo de Freitas according to the NY Passenger listing. I know that her mother died young, as she delayed her immigration to the US to marry Francisco, taking on her mother's responsibilities. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected].
