Thanks for digging up that record. The couple was Antonio and Anna Pimentel. She was locally known as "Tia Anna Pimentel" and ran a boarding house on H street in Fresno where many Azorean immigats would stay until they found a permanent job. Her maiden name was Anna Freitas de Corvello related to my maternal Grandmother. Got to run now, but I'll add to this story as the memory cells awaken. John Vasconcelos
