Capelo, Faial and Ana Maria My great-great-grandmother, Mariana Clara Agostinho, who was from Ribeira Seca, Sao Jorge, married (second husband) Manuel Inacio Avila (1856 - 1894) son of Jose Inacio Avila (1835 - ) and Barbara Jesus Silveira (1831 - 1899) grandson of Inacio Joaquim Silveira (?) and Barbara Josefa (1805 - 1844) Any relation?
