Not at all. I believe it is Berkeley or Oakland. This is where my husbands
portuguese relatives immigrated to, eventually some went to San Jose

Wow!!

I hope you don't mind another question: do you know where and/or when the 
picture was taken? My sister was wondering, and I can't guess with much 
confidence from the clues in the photo (maybe 1940's/1950's Bay Area/ SoCal???)

thanks!

You're very welcome! 

Yup, me too ( but not really ;).

Just wondering if these were photos of your family?  That would be quite an 
amazing find!

cheers,

Linda

[AZORES-Genealogy] writing on back of old photo

[linda]

Hi Becky,

I emailed copies of the photos to my mom (85 in May!) who is bilingual in 
English and Portuguese and who taught herself to read and write Portuguese 
(she's awesome :)

This is her interpretation:

"Este é meu retrato"  (This is my picture.  In other words, this is a
picture of me) "que tirei no meu" yard (my Mom thinks she's trying to write 
"yard" in English and is spelling it how it sounded to her, "yarne") "atras 
faço vinha" (behind-- the house, that is; in other
words, in the back yard-- I make a vineyard).  "uma velha"  (an old lady).

This is a picture of me taken in my yard. In back, I make a vineyard. [signed] 
an old lady


:)

Linda
