Celeste, I found this ship's record and it could be your John Machado Deniz, unfortunately, it does not give much info:
Schooner Forest Fairy sailing Sept. 24,1888 from Fayal to Boston: Joao M. Denice - 20. Age is close and date of entry according to census records is right. No other data other than coming to US. If you want me to send actual record from Ancestry, let me know. "E" -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected]. Follow the confirmation directions when they arrive.
