Hello. I have found a 1930's Cesus record with his information with two of his children and to my surprise a servant. My Aunty has his death certificate however at the time did not want me to make a copy. Here you go:
Henry Coelho Robello Sr. B: 9 Oct 1884 Sao Miguel D: 12 Jul 1961 Honolulu, HI I also, know that he had lost his wife in the mid 20's. I have been told that he still own's land in Sao Miguel but do not know if he has any siblings or any living relatives that are still there. Unfortunately, my grandfather Henry Coelho Robello Jr. was raised in an orphange with his older sister here on the island of Oahu in Kalihi Valley. Not sure how to obtain any records thru the Orphange which is now a Catholic Retreat for Nuns. I have been told by my uncle that when he came to American the last name was changed to Robello however did not mention what the family name was prior. So, there is a possibility that it may have been spelled diffrently. Unfortunately, my grandfather never talked much about his parents. My aunty found a picture in his wallet either while he was hospitalized or after his passing. I have a copy of the original picture. Any assistance that you or anyone can provide or pointers would be deeply appreciated. Thank you for your response and information provided.
