I was looking more closely and maybe this isn't the same person I thought.
But the stories are very similar. Portuguese man married a native American/Indian, and lived in British Columbia, Canada, a big success, known as Portuguese Joe.

If you're reading this, Manuel, is this the same person I researched for you back in 2001?

I found it curious, to say the least, that someone named Joao would be called Joe. Why not John?

The man I researched was not Joao. He was Jose. Did they just mix this up?
