Richard, It looks like we are the only ones searching FONTES from Sao Miguel Island.My husband's great-grandmother's name was Maria E. FONTES (b. 10 aug 1894 in Hilo, Hawaii, Hawaii/d. 12 jun 1977 in San Jose, Santa Clara, CA.).Maria was the daughter of Antonio FONTES and Maria RAPOSA.(Antonio was b. 1872, Conceicao,, Sao Miguel Isl., Portugal/m. 1893, Hilo, Hawaii, Hawaii.)Antonio's parents were Antonio DeFONTES and Jacinta ROSA.(Antonio was b. 1834,,San Jose, Ponta Delgada, Portugal).Antonio's parents were Antonio DeFONTES and Maria DaPAIXAO.(Antonio was b. abt 1812/d. bef. 1883).
I hope that my information is at all helpful to you.Please let me know if you have any helpful hints for me.I would appreciate anything!I am new to Portuguese geneaology.Thank you so much,
