Island of Hawaii, perhaps some on Oahu

There is also something odd that I wanted to mention, some of the Baptista's including my father have their names spelled, Baptiste-go figure, LOL:

My great-grandfather: Matthias Gonsalves Baptista?, wife Maria Jesus?
Supposedly they come from either Madeira or Mainland Portugal. They might have lived in Honolulu, on the island of Oahu and died there?
My great-grandmother: Antonia Branco, b: Nov. 10,1873, d: June 8,1942, ??? The names of their children are: Antone, Minnie, Maggie, John, and Manuel.

Have very little from, only what I have was off his gravestone:
Grandfather: Antone Baptista b: Feb. 23, 1897, Hawaii?, d: May 1977, Kalopa, Hawaii. My grandfather lived in Paauhau, then Honokaa. This is on the Big Island of Hawaii. He did serve as a veteran of WW1 as a Private in the Army.

He married my grandmother on Dec. 5, 1920?:
Virginia Ferreira b: Aug. 5, 1900, Hawaii? d: Jan. 9, 1964, Kalopa, Hawaii
(children of Antone and Virginia: Alice, Joseph and my dad, Manuel (frat twins), Franceline, Wilbert, Mary, Abraham, Evelyn and Rodney--oldest to youngest.
My great-grandfather: Manuel Enos Ferreira b: Nov 1, 1879-Madiera?
My great-grandmother: Antonia Branco b: Nov 10,1873, Madeira?, d: June 8, 1942, Kalopa, Hawaii
(children of Manuel and Antonia: Virginia, Antone, Frank, Alfred, Manuel, Joe, Josaphine and Racina)
