Bechtel, Bethel, Capron, Smith |
I would like an obit or information regarding the death of Mary Alice (Smith) Capron or possibly Mary Alice (Smith) Bethel or Bechtel.
She died in Honolulu May 1993. Her husband (?) was David Capron and her daughters were: - Sharon "Sasha"
- Vanessa
- Natasha
I am particularly interested in the daughters surnames because they may be married names which I do not know. Please help me locate my cousins. Thank you. |

Alameda, Machado, Marciel, Marshall, Oliveira |
The current family line that I'm researching includes
two brothers that came from the Azores, JOSEPH TEIXEIRA MACHADO (born: 1866) and MARSELINO TEIXEIRA MACHADO (born: 1860). They
immigrated between 1880 and 1883. I don't know if they came together.
Joseph settled in the Oakland, Calif. area pretty much all his life.
Marselino bounced back and forth between Oakland and Honolulu. He worked as
a teamster, including owning People's Express (drayage) for several years in
Honolulu. He was married to HENRIETTA AUGUSTA MARCIEL. They had two sons and
a daughter. One son, MARSELINO T. MARSHALL, lost one of his legs when
another driver for People's Express ran over him with a wagon. He died in
1915. The other son, WILLIAM WALTER MARSHALL, died 1929/30 after being
bitten on the hand and contracting blood poisoning. The daughter was named
ADELINE MARSHALL. I really don't know much about her at all. She died
sometime in the latter part of 1901, shortly after giving birth to her son,
BENITO OLIVEIRA, Jr.
All of Marselino's three children were born in the
Kingdom of Hawaii, near as I can figure. Last thing to note is that MT, Jr.
is buried in King Street Cemetery with someone named MARY ALAMEDA. The index
lists her as being born in 1838, so its obviously not a spouse. Perhaps a
grandmother? |

Abel |
I just wanted to know when Donald James Abel and Karen Abel got married in Honolulu Hawaii. I wanted to know her maiden name and I can't seem find anything out else you are family and Donald James Abel and passed go he died in 1984. And if you find someone on the internet that want to charge you a arm and a leg. I don't need the whole copy just certain things off of the cert. See I met Jim ( Donald James ) back in 1984 on my 25th birthday and we sat and talk for hours until he had to leave with his friends since he left his car across town and we suppose to go out the next night but Jim died in a car wreck about an hour he left me. I met his soon to be ex-wife at the funeral ( Karen ) she took the news about Jim and I really good and I have been trying to find her. If I had her maiden name I could just look it up in the phone book in Honolulu cause I know that's where her family still is. How can I go about this getting this info?

Camello |
My husband would like some information about his grandfather
who lived in Honolulu (or other places in Hawai'i?). He does not recall
his name but his son, Benjamin Camello,
died in Honolulu in 1996 and buried in Nuuanu Memorial park (brother
of his father, Roy Ancheta Camello.)
We do not have any other information as my husband's mom and dad moved to California in 1966. If you could give us more information about his
grandfather, it would be greatly appreciated. |

Ayres (Ayers), Dinegar, Hoapili, Ka'Iulani, Manaku, Robinson |
How do I get genealogy vital records? They said that I have to already know the dates that I am actually looking for.
Does anyone do lookups? We're not even positive which county these relatives were born in. We need the info in order to get names of parents, etc. The Dept. of Health made it sound like we have to already KNOW the data we're looking for before we can get a copy of the death or birth certificates. Any advice would be appreciated! Some are from your county and some from Maui. |

d'Arruda, de Medeiros, Ramos |
I am looking for information on the following family members:
Maria Jose d'Arruda immigrated to Honolulu in 1883 on the ship Abergeldie from the Azores (Sao Miguel). She was 14 at the time and came with her parents, Antonio Braz d'Arruda and Antonia Julia de
Medeiros.
I have information that she married John Souza Ramos in Waimea on the Big Island. Where or how can I get a record or documentation of this marriage? I want to verify that this is the same John Ramos that was on the same ship Abergeldie. I have accessed the passport registrations to this ship.
Once married, it appears Mary Arruda Ramos had her own photography studio. We have family photos with print on the back that says: "M.
J. Ramos, Photographer, portraits and views, 83(?) Fort Street, Honolulu"
The era is about 1892.
We would love to get more information on this. Can anyone help or direct us as to where to search?
Mary and John had a daughter, my husband's grandmother, Lydia. She was born in 1888 in Honolulu. We have tried obtaining a birth certificate from the HI Dept of Health in Honolulu without success. Any suggestions? As they were Portuguese immigrants we were thinking of checking Catholic churches for baptism records.
Lastly we have found records that state the father of Mary A. Ramos is buried in Kalihi, Honolulu. His name is Antonio Braz d'Arruda 1839-1911. We are also looking for burial information for his wife Antonia de Medeiros d'Arruda (1840-1911). We did look in some cemeteries in that area while visiting in March 2005, without success. We would like to verify the death information and gravesites. Thank you for your interest and possibly your help. |

I am looking for any official papers or info about the DUSSON family that lived in Hana and/or Kaupo, Maui, HI during the late 1800's through the early 1900's. Lydia married David K. Bray in Honolulu, HI and they had 6 kids. Am hoping to find birth certificates. Lydia Dusson was my grandmother. She died in 1957 or 1958. DOB October 13, (that was the exact day), between 1889-1893. I think '89 is closer...mahalo. |
