Augusto Pinchemel x Maria Wamierbon (Van Mierlo) emigrated around 1870 from France to the South of Brazil with two children.The slavery was abolished in 1870 and Brazil needed people to develop the country.  But the parents died during the trip. Elisa Pinchemel their daughter was educated by nuns in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. Unusual for us is that  in Brazil the children have compound surnames made of the surname of the mother followed by the surname of the father, but it is the surname of the father who is transferred to the next generation and the surname of the man is added behind the surname of the wive when she marries.  

We are developping this genealogy. So all informations and remarks are very wellcome
