Anthony DeCosta, Sr.

Someone has to know more about him. No matter how trivial it may seen. What were his interests? His favorite things? How did he meet his wives? When and where were they married? Was he serious, or did he like to laugh? Share your "Memories" by starting a discussion.

He was my grandfather and I never met him or even spoke with him.

The names Ferreira De COSTA and Rose CAMÕES were listed as his parents on the Record of Marriage to Rose LONG LEW (LAU) in 1929. I can find no record of either name. I have located two baptism records that have to be considered possibilities for Anthony.
