You will find a Manuel W Robert from Portiugal in Trinity county, Ca in !880 and a Manuel Robert in Humboldt county in 1900 from Portugal. A Frank Roberts in Siskyiou.
There are dozens of Portuguese born who used the surname Roberts in California from 1880 -1930 It may be that the father in Flores had a first name of Roberto that got reflexed to the last name .
