He Married Mercedes de Jesus y Verdotte in Manila. After that they moved to Baguio city where he was a mining engineer. He died in 1969. Does any of this ring a bell?

Looking for information concerning the father of Michael Anthony Rhodes (Joaquin)
He was born 11/11/52 in Brooklyn NY. Father is unknown.
His mother is Vandalyah, her maiden name is Ford. There is no known history concerning her first husband. Michael's name was changed sometime late 50's early 60's when she remarried and the second husband adopted. Family rumors have it that she was a nurse working in the hospital where he was born. After she remarried she allegedly went back and changed the name on the birth certificate.
Another rumor has Michael making contact with his father sometime later in life 1 or 2 times. After that he supposedly has not seen him again.
Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Name Change: Canelhas to Joaquin/from Tras Os Montes

Celeste Chandler — 8 Aug 2001 5:00:53 GMT

Update from June post:
Canelhas name change to Joaquin, or vice-versa.

Canelhas from 'Tras Os Montes', on the Spanish side of Portugal.

My grandmother was Hortense Joaquin Canelhas. She married a Joseph Joaquin? or Canelhas?. They immigrated to California by way of Hawaii, probably during the early 1900's. One or more children were born in Hawaii before they arrived in the Oaklnad Bay Area and settled in the San Leandro/San Lorenzo/Hayward area.

Hortense (Rabero) Joaquin Canelhas gave birth to at least 7 children. I am looking for any relative of the children if they have deceased.
