Hello Maria Elena, Celeste, Nancy Jean and Bob Thank you all so very much for your information.It will take me a while to digest it. Bob who were your Pico Macedos? I have noticed that the names seem to change in Brazil. could Evangelho have become Evangelista or are they different. Celeste, is anything at all known of the history of the Fonseca family. Could they originally have come from Terceira? My aunt told me the family originally came from Portugal to Terceira. Maybe I will yet get a match to the Macedo DNA my cousin Peter Macedo supplied. Thank you all again. I do just love what this site turns up, and I will follow it up. very best regards to all, christine
