Update from June post:
Canelhas name change to Joaquin, or vice-versa.
Canelhas from 'Tras Os Montes', on the Spanish side of Portugal.
My grandmother was Hortense Joaquin Canelhas. She married a Joseph Joaquin? or Canelhas?. They immigrated to California by way of Hawaii, probably during the early 1900's. One or more children were born in Hawaii before they arrived in the Oaklnad Bay Area and settled in the San Leandro/San Lorenzo/Hayward area.
Hortense (Rabero) Joaquin Canelhas gave birth to at least 7 children. I am looking for any relative of the children if they have deceased.
