My ggfather was born Dec 7, 1890. I don't know where he was in the birth
order. We knew he had his brother Francisco but not the other two. This was a
big surprise. His parents were Francisco Pacheco & Maria Carolina Horta.
There was a sister, Evelyn that died young, but I don't have any date

This lady was my gg grandmother. Oscar Pacheco Horta was my g grandfather.
When he came to the US he stayed in New Bedford. The family story is that
his brother, Francisco was a Professor in Brazil.
Now I wonder where Conde St. was. The family was supposedly from Ponta
Delgada, Sao Miguel.
" With the coffin conducted in the hot seat" really got me in the
translator. I knew something was lost in the translation. I thought I better

UMass Dartmouth.
