I have a relative with the name Manuel Coelho. He would be my grandfather's half brother, my great-uncle. His father's name was Francisco Silvieira da Sousa Coelho. Don't know his mother's name, she died around 1870. His father married my grandmother, Maria Candida, (b 1838).
These names are so similar, I wonder if we could be related. There is no information about Manuel in my family's history; just that he died in the Azores and he was the only sibling that did not immigrate to the states. Nothing else is known about him. He had three siblings, who ended up in Fall River, Peabody, and Brazil, and a half brother, my grandfather, who moved to Peabody, MA. I have the siblings information in the US, and all decendents up to 1980 if you are interested and you think this could be the same person, I would be happy to share what I have. I don't know what all the names mean. Can someone help me? Would the da Sousa and the Silveira be my great grandfather's mother's name, for example?
