Cheri, I think our common "Mello" link is Victorino (1796/RQ) de Mello, but only because his father, Antonio, married Antonia Pimentel. Actually, as a result of that marriage all of Victorino's siblings are also common links. As for the earlier Mellos from Santa Maria probably the closest one to a link is Joao Mello da Moura, the first of the Santa Maria Moura de Mello siblings to be born in Sao Miguel.
