I do have to say... it is time for a happy dance!!! [?] I found three people (not two) when I went to the cemetery. I know I said that I would be a second set of eyes; however, I was out there last week and (at first) I looked and could not find the graves.
As I said in a previous email, the people at this cemetery are VERY helpful. I went back in and confirmed with them the locations of the graves and went back out to the site. They even gave me a piece of paper with the other graves in the surrounding area, so I could narrow the area down and make sure I was in the correct spot. It turns out I wasn't in the correct spot the first time, I was actually a row off when I was looking for Alfred Lindinha... Oh and there is another surprise (and this is why I fulfilled the request on Find a Grave.) They are not buried under the name Lindinha on the markers; however, the office records do, in fact, reflect Lindinha. The surname on all three markers is Moniz. The person buried next to Alfred is the person buried next to him on the piece of paper that the office provided, so I am very certain that I have the correct marker. Let me know if you need anything else. =-) p.s. I will email you the actual pictures in a couple of minutes.
