Hello Patricia Butcher, Do you still research da Rosa de Escobar family history?
I have previously corresponded with you. I will visit Faial this year so I have been re-reading e mails and organizing history. In a 2002 e mail, you had mentioned a Henry Escobar living in California. My mother's cousin was Henry Escobar (born 1916) who, in 1993 lived in San Anselmo, CA. He moved from there around 2000 to possibly San Rafael or there abouts.) Henry's father, Joe Rosa Escobar, immigrated from Cascalho, Cedros, Faial along with four siblings including his sister,( my maternal Grandmother), Ana Clara da Rosa de Escobar (born 1884). Ana and three siblings settled in Taunton, MA but Joe went to California. Henry Escobar (born 1916) and my mother shared the same maternal grandfather, Antonio da Rosa de Escobar (born 1846, married Maria Clara da Rosa de Medeiros in 1874) all from Cascalho, Cedros, Faial. Cousin Henry from California made at least nine trips back to Cedros and I am hoping people there would still know of him. Cousin Henry, who would now be 99 years old, had a son Jeffrey A. Escabar who had managed a restaurant in San Rafael, CA. I am hoping perhaps the Henry you corresponded with is related to my mother's cousin Henry. Could you please contact me about Henry Escobar and Monique in California? During my visit to Faial I would like to locate the house where my grandmother grew up, so I am searching for people who would know that location. Thank you for any help you can give.
