regards, suanj
suanj,
The things you told us about the departure in Napoli/Genova make sense...
Well, all the documents that I've found are brazilian and the oldest one is this registration of arrival and it states that he steamer was named France, the name of my
bisnonno is Angelo Michielin 01 year old, son of Giovanni 25 e Francesca
Furlanetti 26 ( mispelled certainly ), and they steped in brazilian soil in 01/27/1888. The
cappo della famiglia was Federico Michielin 48, father of Giovanni.
I haven't found anything about France before 1896, but La France yes...
In the last Post, Peter has told us that there were many France's. So how can I find the lists of those ships???
I asked my grandpa, son of Angelo, and he confirmed every statement of this declaration, but the spelling MICHIELIN...We've always thought that we are MICHELIN and even those one whose the name was written as MIQUELIN ( a kind of portuguese form ) It sounds for us as Michelin, we've never heard MICHIELIN, and we, who talk in portuguese, certatinly would realize any difference because the languages are similar.
Do you see that one of things that I considered as wright may be false?
I believe that the wright info must be in those Frances lists.
Those names you stated, I've never heard about them, but I will ask my grandpa. And I will search in Antonio Prado too.
Thank you and Peter,
