Yes, it does! They are a well known family from Caniço. One of my Biology teachers in highschool was from that family, and I believe they are related to, or are themselves the owners of the bus company of Caniço, which is one of my father's clients.

Paulo: You may be correct about the Canico connection. The families of Camacha were very reverend and surely would have traveled to attend church. One of the de Nobrega members now is the owner of the Ratan factory there. They continue to live productively. The Biachi family had a summer resident in Salgados which is one kilometer from Camacha and were parishoners. Their home is now the resident of a Spanish order of priest and a nun who care for children from nonfunctional families from the Continent.
