Celeste, According to my databases in Vila Nova, Terceira, there were no Joao Diniz born 1866, but there were two born in 1865.
Joao, son of Diniz, Francisco Machado Emilia Rosa and Joao, son of Diniz, Francisco Borges Maria Rosa with grandparents Diniz, Joao Borges Machado Julianna Rosa Valladao, Manuel Jacintho Marianna Josefa The parish records for Praia da Vitoria are not online at the CCA, so further info will have to come from LDS films Eric On Tue, Mar 30, 2010 at 10:30 AM, celeste perry <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Arthur, > I live in Hayward, CA and have been trying to help a friend whose > grandmother was named Mary Deniz.
