Query Text:

My name is Shirley Nunes.Iam writing this message, because I am trying to puzzle together my family tree, so therefore,I would like to gather more information regarding the following: 1.My grandmother, who named Maria Nunes, was born probably on the 11th or 13th February 1892 in Demerara (Guyana). 2. The Mother of Maria Nunes, named Caroline Nunes, was also born in Demerara (Guyana), but I don't know exactly when. Caroline Nunes had one more child that I know, a boy, named Francis???? 3.The uncle of my grandmother - named Manuel Nunes was born in ±1863, and I have a strong feeling that one or both of the parents of Caroline Nunes might have come from Madeira, and also perhaps they were children of Portuguese emigrants. Maria Nunes,was married to: João GoncalvesCoëlho on 26 th October 1910 in Paramaribo ( Surinam ). When my grandmother married, she did not have official papers, but under oath she declared that she was the person who she was and also her mother had to make the same declaration. I now own and have the possesion of the marriage Certificate where we found that information. Subsequently, this is the reason I would like you to help me find all the documents of above named persons. Manuel Nunes, born in 1863 was one of the witnesses of the marriage of Maria Nunes, including the following three people: Simon Everhardus Sanches born ± 1845 and his profession was Shoemaker. Manoël Pareira da Silva born ±1864 and his profession was a shopkeeper. Manoël Fernandes da Sopuza born ± 1866 and his profession was also a shopkeeper. If anyone read this message and know any information about the above mentioned family(ies) or is someone connected to them, or even know how I can go about finding out more information, please do not hesitate to contact me . Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanking you in advance, and looking forward to your reply at the under metion adres. Yours faithfully, Shirley Nunes
