I have Anna Moura married to Manoel de Mello .
Manoel de Mello
DOB about 1648, Sao Pedro Church on Santa Marla Island.
DOD Dec 1728, Ponta Garca. Sao Miguel island
Anna de Moura
DOB ?????
DOD 29 Dec 1737, Ponta Garca, Sao Miguel island
I am guesstimating that they married in Sao Pedro, Santa Maria about 1687.
They had 4 kids in Santa Maria (1687-1701 more or less)
Anna had her last child on 7 May 1714, in Ponta Garca, Sao Miguel

Hi Eric,
Thank you for that information.
I wonder if the supposedly un-related MOURA families in the Oakland
area connected up with each other.

Betty,
The weekly Portuguese newspaper O Portugal first appeared in New Bedford,
Massachusetts, started by Alberto Moura of Chaves, Portugal, who sold the
newspaper two years later and moved to California.
Alberto was an Attorney, also had a Portuguese languague paper in Oakland
.
Mt wife's grandparents bought his house in East Oakland abt 1943 . Many of
his books were left behind.
I'll look at a connection.
