Hi Mara, thank you so much for your help. Unfortunately I`m almost sure my ggrandfather came to Brazil before that because I have seen some entries with his name on a kind of Who is Who catalog here in 1876. I find it hard to believe that he would have reached that position within only one year since his arrival. I`ll try anyway.
