My mother was from Sao Miguel. When she was still on this earth I asked this
same question, as I had come across the word cabouqueiro in an ancestor's
record. She told me the meaning was quarry man, someone that works in a quarry.

Hello Maria,
Try the Immigrant Ships Transcribers Guild...they have a ton of passenger
manifest lists. They're arranged by volume, port, and year, or you can
simply search for a vessel if you know the name.

:) Hacker! hehe! Sorry, its funny! Maria, Cabouqueiro could be a man who
works on lands with a hoe! Proprietario is Owner. They were classified as
someone who owned the lands!

Wow, Margaret!! cabouquiero makes sense then- as one who works in mines
because Antonio must have known that business when he took his 2 teenage sons
and sailed to Australia; set them up in business in the goldfields of Victoria.
I know they were able to speak English and read and write.
Margaret! That last definition makes TOTAL SENSE!! In Australia those who
worked the mines were called DIGGERS!!!Isn't that enlightening.
I know that both Jacinto Jose de Lima and his brother Jose Jacinto owned a
part in the Humbug Hill Mining and Sluicing company. I don't know
Digger is also common slang meaning Soldier in Australia
