Hi Gail,
Are you in the Bay Area? If so, you might want to check with the Cal State
East Bay (Hayward State) Historical Archives. They have a bound collection
of Alameda County Voter Affidavits which would cover that area of time.
Kind of interesting because you see how they were registered,
Deb,
Call both cemeteries and ask if they are buried there.

Hey Sam!
My family names are too confusing to get into. Suffice it to say, they

I started out researching my mother's family (Silva and Freitas)
Another helpful tip would be to try to trace any other close relatives of

you've likely. got your man. :)

Hello all and Deb. Unfortunately I do not have any more information on
these people. It was something I extracted at the time when I was helping
someone. But if you have any further requests, please post them. I may have
some from periods further back in time. Nordestinho, Achada, Achadinha,
I have three Mariana's, but they are all Mariana Freitas. lol. Sorry, dude.
If she's from Cedros, she is likely related to my Silveira branch.
Do you know what village or timeline she is from?

Hi
Are these passport records available prior to 1879 which are the only ones
I can find? I am looking for the emigration of my GGrandfather Joaquim

I have absolutely no idea what village she's from, my GGgrandfather was
born aprox 1867 because his death cert says he was 90 at his death in july
of 1957, so maybe his parents born 1849 or earlier?
