Hey, so might be a little creepy and assuming, but a Mello from Mass sounds like you would be Portuguese. I'm a Mello (maiden name) from central NH that moved to the middle of Iowa. My dad is originally from Boston area. Love seeing other Mellos around!

I'm half Portuguese with my Dad. My grandfather is from Sao Miguel, and he was de Mello, but dropped it when he got here. I wouldn't be surprised if we were cousins.
People always suggested my mom name daughters Cara or Marsha!

Small world indeed , around here we all figured Mello was a surname of DeMello and back in the day they shortened everyone's names . It was harder to come to America then my mothers mother only came because her sister died before leaving and my fathers grandfather and grandmother had to have sponsers and careers just to come . Say hi to everyone from your extended family in Fall River , home to Emeril Legasse and Lizzie Borden.
