Don, Joanne may have Maria Izabel's (if that's her name) father right. In looking at the raised "el" in Manuel, my eyes skipped over what may be a "P" that doesn't come all the way down to touch the line. So her father may be Manuel Pacheco Furtado.
And now that Joanne says your Manuel's mother was Helena, I can see it. It's Helena de Jesus. Soon you'll have all the clues.
