Hello all.
It is a mystery that I hope someone else may shed some light on.
In 1907 my Grandparents immigrated to Portugal as single young people.
Tom Tello and Helena deBritto Pestana
they were married, we think in Oahu thereafter?
Helena born in 1892 and Tom thereabouts. Their children born in
Calif, my father the youngest born in 1916
They worked? on plantations? perhaps. and were both born on Porto
Santo, Portugal and arriving on the Ship
Kurmeric in 1907.
anyone have any clues for me would be appreciated! Thank you and God
bless you in your search!

Hi Robin,
Sorry to take so long to reply. Do I understand you correctly? Your
ancestors went back to Portugal in 1907?

What information or what questions are you looking for answers to?

Sorry, I made a mistake!
My grandparents were born on Porto Santo, Portugal . the capital on
that island is Funchal
They immigrated to Hawaii with their families in 1907 on the ship
called Kumeric.
My grandmother Helena Pestana deBrito was the step daughter of Joe
Silva.
My grandfather was Atansio Telo.
They immigrated from Hawaii to California after 1910 when they married
on the island of Oahu, Hawaii
I got it clearer now..!!!
Thank you for your kind reply!
Regards and God Bless you!
Robin
