George, Do you have access to Ancestry ? There are some records pertaining to Captain William Roberto Garcia Howland and his wife Sarah A. Simmonds. Also, if I remember correctly you live in New England, so you are probably aware that Howland is a Mayflower name. You can check with the Pilgrim John Howland Society or The New England Historic and Genealogical Society to see if they have the answer.
Sorry, I can't be of more help. But, if you ever connect to John Howland, then I'd be interested. I descend from him through his daughter Desire.
