It would never have occurred to me to look outside the country, but that will certainly be my next step.<br /><br />Thanks!Toniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14688040686852110671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6820176023454345900.post-23814611528645011892010-06-21T20:32:44.625-05:002010-06-21T20:32:44.625-05:00Hello Kathleen,

I'm like the others who have commented above, I had no idea about the numbers of people leaving for Brazil after the Civil War. I found one of my ancestors arriving in New York and the manifesto said he was arriving from Brazil. I found myself imagining why he had gone there. Never did find out or come to a good conclusion. Now I will go back and look at this one a little more closely.<br />JudyJudith Richards Shuberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03499186334451409604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6820176023454345900.post-65190326184992358562010-06-18T22:16:29.319-05:002010-06-18T22:16:29.319-05:00Kathleen,

I lived in Santa Barbara d'Oeste for a year when I was in high school and participated in the annual festival at the Campos cemetery. It was a big deal and appeared on their TV news. Thanks for sharing this info on your blog. It brought me back to that special time and place in my life.<br />Best,<br />DionneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6820176023454345900.post-74640283565913635132010-06-17T22:27:59.040-05:002010-06-17T22:27:59.040-05:00Wow!
