Carlos,
I'm afraid I don't really know anything about the origens either.There are alot of Italian Anselmos too.Unfortunately I don't speak Portuguese.I hope you can understand this.I always assumed our ancesters took the name Anselmo after the saint St. Anselm.Someone in my family had the Anselmo name and the rest took it also because they were Vieiras and that name was very common. Supposedly the Vieiras in my family were actually Vierro and may have been descendants of Spanish Basques.I don't know if the Anselmo was from there also.If I find anything out I will forward it to you.
Good Luck in your search,
Pat Nostrome
