Good morning Tish and Carolyn, The ship manifests from Brazil that you find on Family Search database are *only* from *Bahia (1855 – 1964) and São Paulo (1960 – 1982).* These records are only images, no indexing until the moment. So if you fit those dates, for those two places, you need to

Roberto, Thank you for that information. It would be very helpful to me if I could find out the name of the ship that Vitorino and his family took to Brazil in October 1911. I would think there would be a database somewhere of ships and their routes with dates included. But could I

I would like to add some information on the answer of Isabella Baltar. The archives in Brazil are still being indexed. But I tried some times read the list by myself on a specific boat and use the search function based on names. Archives newer than 1896 or around looked to be indexed. They

Cheri, One last comment… I recently attended some classes on Ancestry, and that was the instructor’s opinion as well, that Ancestry’s focus is primarily the U.S…and I agree. I don't know if this has been mentioned already regarding the UK section on Ancestry; it does show manifests with

They do have Brazil to Germany for free. I was able to find ship manifests from Salvador, Bahia, Brazil to Germany for a Conde who married a Swiss businessman. Although, I agree in general that it is very US centric Bill On Sep 24, 2014, at 10:35 AM, Cheri Mello gfsche...@gmail.com

Carolyn, I looked quickly for Vitorino Reixelo and I found Vitorino J Reixello in São Paulo, Brazil, in 1948. I believe it is him, too much of a coincidence not to be him. You are lucky! At least you have a starting point now. I can send you the pdf; it is not a ship manifest. Please send me a
