As you can see from my name, I am a DeMeza with ancestors coming to America from the IOM. William DeMeza, married to Jane Killey, came here after their marriage, a couple of children and a quick trip to England. There were/are more DeMeza family members living in England where they settled (?) after leaving their homes during the Inquisition. (?) = because I have yet to make that connection but am told the name is Portugese related.
