I happened to run into a Manuel Silva Sequeira in Mission San Jose in the UPEC records when I was looking for someone else. It says he was from Sao Jorge. His wife was Maria. I don't know if this is the same one but I thought I'd share.
If anyone is interested go here and download the Mission San Jose PDF: http://www.worldgenweb.org/azrwgw/research-aids-a---l/fraternal-societies/upec-records.html I'm not putting the direct link because it's 44 pages and took a long time to load for me.. Manuel appears for the first time on page 3. It caught my eye because of my Sequeira ancestors but I'm not sure there's a connection.
