Repost for <no name>, 1halfazorean at gmail.com
I googled my great grand mother’s name ( Nunes )and came across a thread
with past relatives of her husband Antonio Noia! My great grand father
naturally. Wow. It also lists their three children, my great aunt & uncle
and my grandmother. Very interesting. It also mentions my mothers two
brothers and not her or her two sisters or her! Reading through all the
past generation with all the familiar last names and some of the first
names is amazing. Sure wish my mom was alive to see this information.
My question is, where did the Noia name begin? António Fraga sees to have
started it all in the Azores, Flores. Fraga, Carvalho, Pimentel, De Jesus
are also mentioned. I don’t see where the name Noia actually enters the
family!? Also mentioned is that, Noia was shortened or altered once
arriving in America.
Anyway, any comments welcome
