Hi All, Just wanted to thank you all that gave me info on great grandfather Joseph(Jose) Monsebo Rodrigues. You don't know how much I appreciate it! But unfortunately still have not found really anything yet. A gentleman on the East Coast told us that Mancebo's come from Mosteiros and Fajazinha, Flores and are all related. He is also from there with same name. Found a few Rodrigues Mancebo's in culturacores site but don't know if they are related. There is a Antonio Rodrigues Mancebo(native of Lajes das Flores) that married Maria Candida do Coracao de Jesus that married in 1828 (possibility there) with a son Jose Rodrigues Mancebo that married Policena Tomasia in 1870(can't be be my great grandfather because in 1870 I think he was in Hawaii already. But will save that info and keep on researching. Again, thank you all very much!! I appreciate any info and for all of your time!!
