Yes, Manoel, I think your correct. I am connected to Diogo by way of Nuno & Africa. My maternal grandmother's line has many "cross-overs." I have information, may be true or not, that my grandmother is the 72nd great-grandaughter of Numarius Julius Caesar. Again, I say, it may or may not be true. The point is that in the 236 pages of charts for this connection, my grandmother appears 40 times! I worked on trying to verify this connection and finally just gave up because there was just too much confusion with all of the in-marrying of this family. I suppose, if you go back far enough, we are all related to Adam and Eve so there you have it. Thank you for helping with this specific connection to Diogo Goncalves de Travassos & Violante Velho Cabral. Celeste, Hayward, CA

Pedro had a son named Estévão Cabral, or Travassos, who married Violante Gonçalves daughter of Catarina Afonso and her first husband Gonçalo Anes. 2) Nuno Velho de Travassos also married twice and his 2nd wife Africa Anes was daughter of another Gonçalo Anes from Cernandessa , Portugal . Nuno and Africa Anes had a daughter named Grimaneza Afonso de Melo from whom you do descend. So I think you are connected to Diogo Gonçalves de Travassos and Violante Velho Cabral through their son Nuno Velho de Travassos and his 2nd wife Africa Anes.
