Thank you Susan. I typed the census info in probably 10 or more years ago. I had not been able to do any research for several years and just got back into it so I don't know. I will change it. From the will I did get that it was Manuel Pereira Silva which I had always assumed but family always

Susan Emeryville is listed in the top of the census records. That is why I put it there. He is buried at Holy Ghost Crmetary in Fremont. I lived in Stockton until 7 years ago when I moved to Kansas. I do have cousins in Bay Area as well we are all stumped. Grandpa wouldn't even teach his kids

"E", Sometimes this sort of error can be due to a "bad" link. If you can copy and paste the link you're trying to access, others can try clicking on it to see if it works for them. If it doesn't work for us, then the problem is not on your end, but an error on the website. :) Linda On

Cheri, Since the marriage took place to New Bedford, did you contact the Vital Records and ask for the paper the bride/groom actually filled out for the marriage license. There was much more information on that than there was on the other papers and online. They are not crazy to look it
