I'll guess that the tour guide didn't mention that the sugar cane was
brought from Madeira where it had been well established since the 1500s.
Pineapple was also a export crop of Madeira and Sao Miguel before
cultivation started in Hawaii. I't pretty clear that besides surfing, most

Eric E,
The tour guide may have mentioned the info about the sugar cane and the
pineapple. I also did the pineapple plantation tour too. My ancestors
were involved in pineapple on Sao Miguel. Guess that's why they wound up

no one in Canada has it. And I think Shirley

Eric G,
The FHCs used to have a feature within their center where you could see
which FHC had which film. But I think they nixed that about 10 years ago.
If there was a replacement, no one at my FHC told me (at that time. I
haven't asked since).

Eric,
Any idea when she was naturalized ? Before 1922 (I think) a wife became
naturalized automatically if her husband was naturalized. Meaning, there would
be no paper trail for the wife.

Yes, it's 1922 for women to naturalize as Gayle M stated. Here's an
