Emil & Donna,
Wow, more cousins & more missing links to our Furtado Dutra line from
Faial. Donna & I grew up with these families in Jamestown, RI. I was
aware that some had gone on to California. Emil, you have everything
current in your files. I am still plugging along slowly entering
Donna's information to my PAF. Thanks for your continued research &
additions to our numerous cousin lines. And Donna, thank you for
pursuing the Jamestown family lines that connect us. So glad you have
the passion to do this.

Emil,
The Jose Furtado Dutra born April 25, 1899 was my uncle by
marriage. He came to the US in 1920 and married my aunt, Mary
Elizabeth Lewis (Luis). They had no children, but my widowed mother
and I lived with them. They also helped raise some other children as well.
His sister Rose also came to the US, not sure when. She lived near
New Port, RI and in her later years wintered in Florida where here
daughters and son live. Rose married a man named Woodson.
My uncle's other brother Antonio came to the US in the 60's as an
older man to be with his daughters. His daughter Rose had come to
the US in the 50's with her husband, Antonio Souza and two sons and
they lived in California near us. His daughter Maria came when he
did and she never married. Antonio came first to the East and then
came to California.
Another brother, Joao was a half brother. My Uncle Joe sent for
Joao's two sons, Manuel and Frank during the time of the volcano in
the late 50's. Their sister Maria came to the US later with her
husband and two children and eventually Joao and his wife Maria also
came to the US and lived here in Ca near us.
I am very close to this family and am in contact with them
regularly. We consider ourselves related even though we are not
blood related. My Uncle Jose Furtado Dutra had two cousins, Jose
Garcia and Joao Da Rosa (later americanized to Rose). I have early
pictures of them together, but I am not sure if the pictures where
taken here or in the Azores. They may have even come to the US
together. There was also a Moitoso family that would visit us the
were related to my Uncle Joe. I don't remember the husband's name,
but the wife was Maria, of course and sons were Frank and
Manuel. The whole family came from the Faial in the 60's also.
Oh and by the way, I also have Vargas relatives from Almoxarife.

Did any of these Furtados marry into the Dutra line? My uncle by
marriage was Jose Furtado Dutra, born in Cedros in about 1899. In
his line, he had cousins named Rose and Garcia.
