Kathie,
I don't recall if I ever met him. I seem to recall that when I was a
teenager, we as a family (including my Uncle Jose Reis and Aunt Angelina

Thanks to both Cheri maria Lima for the useful hints. I been to Archives NZ

Hello,
I would like to give you a suggestion that may help you translate some
Portuguese words.
I know very little Portuguese. I have found the translate.google.com website
helpful
in translating some words. It doesn't translate everything, but it has helped
me with a lot of words.
Good

Thank you very much for the translation, including my mistake (marriage vs
death) with Leonard. I was going to use the online translation but I knew it
would be somewhat chopped up and after working 14 days straight I needed to
go to bed. Appreciate your help!

Thank you, Shirley,
I appreciate your help on this.
I've been searching for the children of Joam and Isabel and also for Joam's
obit which I found. I could certainly use some help with the record. I think it
says he died August 13, 1797 and was 63 years old. I hope someone will confirm
that
