Hi Maria,
I assume that Brazil was not expected as a destination. Are you positively
sure that passport record is of your ancestor? If you are certain it is
yours, then there must be an interesting story.
My ancestors from Ginetes left for Hawaii. In the destination column it
says Hawaii and
Yes. If they were going somewhere else, it would say something like "país
estrangeiro."
It seems like there were waves of immigration to certain areas. I see the
Brazil group, the Sandwich Isles group (Hawaii), and the America group,
with a few others scattered in.
Remember, not all passaportes
If the destination says "BRAZIL" then does that mean the person had to actually
leave for BRAZIL? Was it customary to say you wanted passport for one country
and then go to another?
Im looking around 1882/83 and most of the Destination columns are for Brazil
only with Ditto marks all the
3 matches
