Different Leopoldina's. Mine: Leopoldina Lucindo Freitas, Born 1884 in Faja Grande, Flores, Died and Buried in Merced and not Turlock. I wouldn't be surprised to see that we're related....Faja Grande isn't that large. My great grandfather was Francisco Jose Jorge Born 1871 in Faja Grande, Flores. His father was Antonio Jose Jorge Born 1827 in Flores. You can send me more Jorge information to wolgemut...@msn.com. Perhaps we can compare and see where the family connection is. Thank you so much!
