Lisa, Who was his bride or who are his parents?
I have a large file from Lagoa, I can look to see if I have a match Maria Moore From: brat.l...@hotmail.com To: azores@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: [AZORES-Genealogy] Surname change suggestions??? Date: Tue, 6 Apr 2010 00:16:31 -0500 Hello all. I hope everyone had a great, lovefilled Easter. I am requesting some fresh ideas on a possible surname change of one of my ancestors. My ggg grandmother's brother, Manuel da Costa Galante, from Lagoa, N.S. immigrated with his new bride to Hawaii in 1884 upon the ALBERGELDIE(think thats right). His passport along with information from a book Ms. Shirley has stated his whole name as that which is above. Now my problem is I have searched all the subsequent census records up to 1910 in Hawaii, and I can not find any one with that last name, Galante. Does anyone have any ideas of an alternative spelling of the last name, or maybe if it would be usual for one to drop the last name and just go by "da Costa"?? Any suggestions and / or ideas would be appreciated. Lisa L -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to azores+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. Follow the confirmation directions when they arrive.
