Hi everyone, I've begun searching for my father's side of the family with little to no information, other than what I found by going to the New Bedford, MA city hall to look up information about my grandparents. I did find information on their death certificates, which helped a little, but my searching for additional information brings up a lot of conflicting information on Ancestry (such as naturalization papers listing one date for arrival, but searching for the boat lists a completely different date that does not have any recognizable names on the passenger list.)
What I did find out is that my father was a 3rd generation of the same name (Antonio/Antone Mello, possibly DeMello) and that both grandparents came from Rebeira Quente, St. Michael, Azores around 1901 for my grandfather and about 1905 - 1907 for my grandmother (Maria Lima, born 1890 or 1891). Any tips or suggestions on where to look further would be appreciated!
