Hello It very well could be him. I just took another look at his death certificate and it says he died on 11 Dec 1952 at age 80. If he was born in Jan 1871 and died in Dec 1952 he would have been 81 not 80 right? What do you make of this information Eliseu? Interesting that the Godfather was named Sousa and the adoptive father was named Silva but the age doesn't quite match up does it?
