Wow! This is amazing! You actually found them on a passenger list? I can't thank you enough! I didn't think about checking passenger ships. I'm sure that this is my family! Maria L. Silva was my grandmother's mother.'s name. I have never heard the name Maria R. Dias before. So, I'm not sure who whe might have been. Macedo is one of my grandfather's mothers maiden names from Pico. Thefamily did live in Cambridge, Massachusetts. In a message dated 9/20/2009 5:03:42 P.M.
