Chris, Next week I will go to Family History Center where I have A few microfilms from Rosto de Cao, Sao Roque area in search for your ancestors
Did you have either parents name? I noticed FrNcisco Joaquim was born in 1838- same year as J J de Lima and your other brother was 1837 and my other ancestor was 1836 so these two sets of brothers were same age, traveled on same ship. Had to have known each other. Have you access to look at the actual microfiche from which names of passengers were copied? I think they are at PROV. Also, you would think they had to have some $ to make that journey. I wonder if your ancestors traveled with parents. I noticed the Lima "boys" traveled with father and "godfather". I checked copies of newspaper clippings that I received years ago in search for the names of your ancestor but no mention of your ancestors. If I cannot fi d them in microfilm, maybe someone on List in the Dartmouth F H C will do a look up.
