John, I apologize for the confusion. I meant I could not find a record of his arrival. You blew my mind when I read your email. I didn't think anyone else had any information on this family.
I thank you for all the time and trouble you went to in order to help.

He would have arrived around 1900 either on a passenger ship or a whaler. I can't find him anywhere. Thanks for asking. Judi I thought this might help. This has to be your grandfather's family although where he fits in will require more work. Rehards! John Modified Register for Manuel Cabral First Generation 1.
