Rita is Rita in Portuguese. It is the name of an Italian saint (St Rita). When I first saw the name I thought it was Margarida shortened and it had me looking at the wrong line. My GGG grandfather first Married Margarida de Jesus and married second Rita de Jesus so I was confused in the early dark ages of my research.

She married Joseph Duarte in Pawtucket, Rhode Island. I think they married in 1901 or 1902. She was born March 23, 1882 in Fayal. She immigrated through New York, NY, Sept 29, 1897 on the Penninsular. I haven't been able to find the ship log, so I am not sure if she traveled alone. Any guidance to finding her would be so appreciated. Also, what is Rita in Portugese? Much Appreciation. Fawn Unger -- -- To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected].
