My great-grandfather Manoel Correia Athayde came through Providence and stayed with his Conde cousins before heading out to the bay area of CA. He had stopped in Manaos in Brazil for a while before that tho and stayed with an uncle there. There's still family in Manaos that my Uncle met in the 1960s.
