Granddaughter of Joana Maria Josefa is Nita Santos shown here on the 300 Block of Purchase Street, New Bedford, Massachusetts, c. 1948
"Who was Maria Josefa Nhango?" & "can I follow her life via church records?"
So far, we know that at one point in time she was connected to the Sao Joao Baptista Parish in SANTO ANTAO
"Who was Joanna Maria Josefa?".
Joanna was the daughter of Maria Josefa Nhango. She appears to have been born in SANTO ANTAO & then took up residence in both Sao Nicolau and Sao Vicente. She seemed to have had about six children and then she would partner up with Antonio Manoel dos Santos (grandson of Rosa Maria (dos Santos) da Natividade) with whom she had at least three children - Rosa Joanna (born in Sao Nicolau), Manoel Antonio dos Santos (born in SV) & Joao Antonio dos Santos (born in SV & MY GRANDFATHER). Joanna seems to have had about 9 or 10 children.

1949 - New Bedford Death Certificate for Mary Santos - however it lists her mother as Mary Silva - which is not correct & her father as Joaquim Custodio which is probably correct as she named her first son Joaquim. She died on 2/6/1949, age 52, housekeeper in her own home, wife of Cristiano Santos. It says that she was born in Brava.
