Another great photo of third graders at Fuller School in 1929.
Many thanks for the photographs and written memories
from Arlene Rose Gouveia which her mother began collecting and Arlene kept
adding to (I well remember Arlene's mother). Also, thanks to Elaine Farinha DeMoranville
for her photos and also her research at the Bristol County Historical Society in Taunton.
Linda at the Research Section of the Taunton Public Library also assisted.
My cousin, Shelley Au (daughter of my Aunt Alveda Souza ) also carries on her
mother's tradition of keeping precious photos.
I hope that all of you readers will
I hope that all of you readers will
add your names here, too.
My own research into the genealogy of The Souza family in Taunton and
that of my mother's family, especially my grandmother Isobel Mota,
gave me much opportunity to delve into Taunton history. If you are interested
in reading a summary of Searching for Isobel, my grandmother's life, you can find it at

You will note that the photograph of my grandmother is incomplete, another
mystery to add to her life and history. It took nearly ten years to write these two family histories.
It was a labor of love which resulted in finding a missing family member.
The School Street Memoir
The School Street Memoir
project is another labor of love.
