Do you show a *Daniel Francisco De Rosa* Born about 1845 in Pico? Parents would be: ** Jose de Rosa Maciel and Izabel Mariana DOB's Unknown Brother would be: Manuel da Rosa Maciel Born about 1833 in Pico
Grandfather would be: Daniel Fransciso Matos DOB unknown I'm curious if any of these people show in your records.
