Repost for Fred Souza, *l* fsouza31 at comcast.net Hi Frederick, Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I am actually living outside of Philadelphia. My Mother's family is from Massachusetts. Her Father's parents, Frank A Rose and Mary J Souza came from Sao Jorges to Massachusetts prior to 1860 I have not been able to determine if they came with their parents or on their own and meet here. They settled in East Boston, but have Souza (and Mello) relatives in Gloucester. I do not believe the Mellos were from Sao Jorges. Jut checking to see if there may be a connection.
