Hi Sandy, I have been researching Brazil for more than 5 years, and as many other suggested, Family Search is a great place to do your search.
I will also suggest you my blog, where I have specific links to some archives in São Paulo, Brazil. http://myportuguesegen.blogspot.com/2012/02/immigration-in-brazil-ii.html If you need any help please let me know.
