Thank you Dano, Aaron and Richard all of you have given me more ideas and areas to research for the information I seek. Richard, I believe you are correct that they may have bundled all the plantation workers under one* type* of passport. Cheri, no I have not contacted Melody or anyone else at Your Islands Routes. Do you have her email/contact info? Would someone at the Portuguese/Hawaii Historical place be helpful? Again, thank you, Paul G.
