Hi Emidio,
Thank you for replying. My Grandmother was Helena de Britto Pestana and her mother was Maria de Melim born in 1874
Joao Pestana de Britto was her husband born 1870
Both were born in Porto Santo, Madeira Island
She married Atansio Tello on the island of Oahu when their families immigrated there around 1900. They would have been teenagers! and many cousins on the island married by the way.
If you have information about the family, please email me at
robin.pehle@gmail.comI would so love to know more!
thank you!
