Hi Mary,
Sorry for the slow response but I kept thinking I could go back through all of the photos and look for additional ones.....the one of the baby has a photographer's studio logo that says "Palo Alto"....unfortunately, only a few of the pictures have names. The ones that are named are of a couple of the Perry girls and one of a man named 'Gert Alves" who married into the family.....others married an Azevedo,a Medeiros, a Lemos and I'm not sure at the moment of others names. I will look this weekend for others from Palo Alto. The one name for Joseph in born 1845 Portugal is the right year for one of Antonio and Isabels children....although his name was JOAM.....what is that....not Jose or Joao? My mother said her grandfather, Joseph Perry, went to Ca. for gold and had a stick pin made with the nugget he found. So often they went with other relatives. At this point after finding the Palo Alto picture I'm sure some part of this family went to Ca. and a whole new avenue of searching is opened up! Perry/ Pereira is such a common name!

Do you know if the west coast family was going by Perry or Pereira at that time? Was the photo from a studio in Palo Alto or was that written on the photo? I just did a quick Ancestry search and couldn't find any Perry family in Palo Alto around 1900 on the census. (It was a very quick search...). I'm on the coast side of the SF Peninsula close to Palo Alto. There were Pereiras on the coast (probably around Pescadero). In the 1900 census they were: Joseph born 1845 Portugal Annie born 1852 Portugal Joseph 1890 Manuel 1893 (I have some Pereiras in my line from Norte Grande, Sao Jorge.)
