This is very interesting. I just gave Eloise the Cabrinha line. They are from Ponta Garca and emigrated to Hawaii. Having said that, there may be other Cabrinha's from other villages. It is really a nickname that stuck and became a surname. They were Medeiros Cabrinhas that originated in Lagoa, Rosario and married into Ponta Garca family. You should be able to find the Cabrinha's on the passport list and on Island Routes.com. If it is the Ponta Garca branch, then it is simple a matter of linking up.
