I would appreciate any information on the above and his family to help in my task of tracing my ancestors. He was born as a converso in Portugal but went to Brazil and during the Portuguese occupation he reached Martinique in 1654 and there became the owner of the two biggest sugar plants and went on to establish the first cacao processing plant and was instrumental in introducing chocolate to Europe via France.
