Joseph, perhaps we've been working from the wrong perspective on this problem. Do you have info on Joam that you can share with us? If not, whomever the ancestor that you've traced furthest back w/ most info. Several of us in this group have been researching Ponta Garca & VFdC for a long time - one of us must have the person you're looking for.
