Hi All, I'm trying to trace descendants of the above couple. Maria immigrated in 1912 to California, Joao/John about 1910 to California. They married in Alameda County California on 16 Aug 1914. Maria's parents: Francisco Vieira da Silva and Maria de Azevedo of Ribeira da Areia, Sao Jorge, Azores; Joao's parents Joao Machado Avila & Maria Magdalena de Azevedo from Norte Grande, Sao Jorge. After the couple married, they went 'back East' no one in the family remembers where! Maria supposedly had 3 children and then died young of a brain tumor. I've found a John & Mary Avilla in the 1930 Census, the right ages and also immigration years in Dartmouth, Bristol, Mass. They have Antone Avilla 14, Mary 8 and Alfred 5. I can not find these children or dad in 1940. Does anyone recognize this family?? This could be my Maria & Joao/John, the ages are right, 3 children, immigration years correct. Any help would be appreciated.
