HI Eric - I'm thinking the Louise Souza living with Luiza D Souza in the 1910 Census is not the right person. My grandmother would have been named Louise Evangelho, not Souza. Also, my grandmother's mother (my mystery Maria/Mary) died when she was 2, and her father returned to the Azores to remarry (and never return). He left Louise in the care of the Evangelho family (his relatives) who lived in either Madera or Fresno county at the time - 1904ish - and they raised her. I don't recall any stories of Maria's parents being alive or living in California; so I'm thinking the one in the census is just a coincidental name. At least that's my theory for now!
