Greetings, I recently inherited an old photo album and a great many loose pictures from the 1880's.....the photo's were all taken in New Bedford by several different photographers. The large album has Manuel Goulart photos. I believe most of these are pictures of my Pereira/Perry family although the only one with a name says "Gert Alves". All of the pictures have a number on them so I thought perhaps I could some how find old records..... I did a google search and found an older story from "The Old Dartmouth Historical Society" about an exhibition of the works of "Two Brothers Goulart"......they were from Faial and Manuel came to New Bedford in 1889.....I called the New bedford Whaling Museum where the society is located to see if Judith Lund who curated the exhibit was there...alas, she retired but the woman in charge of the photo collection, Katie Mello, was very helpful and suggested that I peruse the collections on line. It is an enormous collection of all kinds of vintage photos. There were 159 of Goularts work.....one of the pictures was of a "grandma Enos and Clemintina with cousin"......she's not my Enos grandmother but perhaps she's one of yours. The collections are worth looking at and can be found at the New Bedford Whaling Museum website. I was in hopes of a small miracle.....finding the grandchildren who would have all the old records with the numbers on my photo's to match with names.......I'm such an optimist! I may never know who these ancestors are.....many of the children of
