Antonio,You might like to contact the author. He's a native of Ribeirinha, Pico and at one time was subscribed to this list. Maybe still is.Based on his research and the information he provided me, I found the baptism of this Portuguese Joe about 10 years ago, but I never saw this article. There are people on this list who are related to this family, I believe, including his descendants. As you see from his father, he is one of the Simas descendants.Best I can tell, he took the name Silva, changed it to Silvia or Silvey, but it comes from his maternal grandfather who was a Silveira and is also my distant cousin.Doug da Rocha HolmesPico  Terceira Genealogist=Get ready for NFL Fantasy Football and join me in the newly created Azores Genealogist League.

I ordered Jean Barman's book on Portuguese Joe Silvey even though he had no 
relation to me.  I found his story very interesting and wanted to read more 
about his inter-racial marriages with Canadian Native women.
