Thank you again Bill, Yes the birth and death dates are very wrong but according to the Cemetery where she is buried the says date should have been 1952, so they also have noted that difference too.
I do have a question that perhaps you have the answer to. Virginia, on her immigration papers and my father's birth certificate she lists her last name as Conceicao and according to other documents including her birth certificate it is Machado..is there a reason for that? Very confusing. On Sun, Nov 3, 2019 at 4:57 PM Bill Seidler <[email protected]> wrote: > Thank you Joe, I guess I didn't go back far enough.
