----- Original Message ----- Hi Geneva, You and I are related through Apolonia Ferreira m. to Manuel de Arruda. Francisca de Jesus, dau. of José de Sousa and Vitoria de Santo André, is a direct descendant of Apolonia Ferreira and Manuel de Arruda. José de Sousa and Vitoria de Santo André married in S. José on 14 dec 1783. Their daughter Francisca married Joaquim Cabral on 19 aug 1811 in S. José. The parents of José de Sousa are Gaspar de Sousa and Barbara da Conceição m. on 20 april 1759 in SJ. The parents of Vitoria de Santo André are João Cabeceiras and Maria da Ressurreição. Now the good news: Gaspar de Sousa and Barbara da Canceição are in the book Genealogias de São Miguel e Santa Maria, by Rodrigo Rodrigues, and they are descendants of our common ancestors Apolonia Ferreira and Manuel de Arruda. Apolonia Ferreira is a direct descendant of the following settlers: João Lopes dos Mosteiros, chapter 166; Diogo de Oliveira de Vasconcelos, chap. 49; Afonso Anes da Costa Cogumbreiro, chap. 78; Martim Anes Furtado de Sousa, chap. 85.

Amancio Cabral's father was Jacinto Cabral and mother Ana Ricarda Pereira. Jacinto was born August 1, 1825. Jacinto Cabral's father was Joaquim Cabral and mother Francisca de Jesus de Sousa. They lived in Rua de Santa Clara and were all natives of Sao Jose, Ponta Delgada, Sao Miguel, Azores.
