Re: [AZORES-Genealogy] Silva or Silveira, Sao Jorge island, emigration 1905 to America
I have a Manuel Silva born 1/1851, immigrating in 1877,his father Joseph Salamina Silva 1821, his wife Mary P.(Maria?) born 1/1854, and his sister Jennie(Eugenia?) Solomon Silva born 1857. Jennie married my Great Grandfather(Manuel Borba) in Rhode Island and settled in Northern California. Don't know if this matches any of your information, my information on the Silva side is very vague.

We are also uncertain if there were other siblings left behind on the island. The birth date we have for the oldest known sibling, Alex, is 1860. Presumably that would make Manuel born around 1840 or earlier. Does this sound like the same Manuel Silveira to you? Any help here would be appreciated.
