Correia DeMello
Hello, I am currently writing a book about a man named Jose Correia DeMello.
He was from the Azores, most likely Sao Miguel.
He went to Fall River in 1892. In 1893 at the age of 16 he murdered a girl named Bertha Manchester. He went to prison.
In 1911 he was pardoned by the governor and sent back to the Azores.
I don't know what happened ot him after this.
I believe he had two sisters. I don't know his village. I think his father's name may have been Miguel, but I am not sure.
He had an uncle named Jacintho Moniz Machado.
If any of this rings a bell, please let me know.
