Margaret,
This is part of my tree for the de Souza family, I’m still entering in the
children and the marriages . This might give you and the others what I have
so far.
These are additional notes that I have.
Notes for Caitano de Souza
aka Caitano de Souza Dias
aka Quitao or Gaetano
. If he exit the island in 1885 the records
are not posted on the cca site,
Wishing you and all in the group a Healthy and Happy New Year!!!
