Title A name given to the resource Januario Leal Video Collection [1975-2000] Description An account of the resource The Januario Leal Video collection covers events related to the Portuguese community from many towns within the Greater Boston area from the 1970s to 2000. The videos linked here focus on the communities north and northwest of Boston, however many more videos can be found on the LealVideos Youtube page, including videos filmed in the Azores. The videos in this collection include many events, festivals, processions, and Carnaval celebrations. This collection is still growing. Check back for updates! Biographical Note Januario L. Leal was born on October 15, 1946, in São Bras, Terceira to Januario and Maria (Linhares) Leal. He grew up attending school and, as an adult, operated his father’s convenience store. In 1970, Januario relocated to the United States with his wife, Fernanda (DeSousa) Leal, and they settled in Lowell, Massachusetts. He became a communicant of St. Anthony’s Church and a member of many local clubs including the Portuguese American Civic League, the Portuguese American Center, and the Holy Ghost Society. After immigrating to Lowell, he worked at Paris Shoe as a machine operator until 1978. He later began working for Bradford Industries, formerly known as Pandel, as an inspector until his retirement. Januario was also an avid videographer and maintained his own YouTube channel called "Leal Videos." In 1972 Januario's first video camera was a Super 8mm. The Super 8 used 50ft film roll cassettes which only provided 3 minutes of video recording. As video camera technology advanced he later upgraded 3 years later in 1975 to 16mm film. The Super 8 and 16mm cameras that Januario owned were hand-cranked at first but later upgraded to battery powered a couple years later. As Januario continued to follow his passion he upgraded his camera with each video camera technology advancements which included the video formats of VHS (1980-1999), MiniDV (2000-2015) and to the modern day High Definition 1080p (2015-2022). He recorded hundreds of local events related to the Portuguese community, including many processions and festivals. Thanks to his videography passion, an entire generation of Portuguese American festivities will now be preserved for posterity. Januario passed away on February 28, 2022 and is survived by his four children (Roberta Agostinho, Alizabete Brum, Davido Leal, and Roberto Leal) and their families, including many grandchildren.

In 1970, Januario relocated to the United States with his wife, Fernanda (DeSousa) Leal, and they settled in Lowell, Massachusetts. He became a communicant of St. Anthony’s Church and a member of many local clubs including the Portuguese American Civic League, the Portuguese American Center, and the Holy Ghost Society. After immigrating to Lowell, he worked at Paris Shoe as a machine operator until 1978. He later began working for Bradford Industries, formerly known as Pandel, as an inspector until his retirement. Januario was also an avid videographer and maintained his own YouTube channel called "Leal Videos." In 1972 Januario's first video camera was a Super 8mm. The Super 8 used 50ft film roll cassettes which only provided 3 minutes of video recording. As video camera technology advanced he later upgraded 3 years later in 1975 to 16mm film. The Super 8 and 16mm cameras that Januario owned were hand-cranked at first but later upgraded to battery powered a couple years later. As Januario continued to follow his passion he upgraded his camera with each video camera technology advancements which included the video formats of VHS (1980-1999), MiniDV (2000-2015) and to the modern day High Definition 1080p (2015-2022). He recorded hundreds of local events related to the Portuguese community, including many processions and festivals. Thanks to his videography passion, an entire generation of Portuguese American festivities will now be preserved for posterity. Januario passed away on February 28, 2022 and is survived by his four children (Roberta Agostinho, Alizabete Brum, Davido Leal, and Roberto Leal) and their families, including many grandchildren.

The group of performers then begin their dance while accompanied by guitars, castanets, and accordions. A man in the center dances with a baton and sings solo, including a song about missing the Azores, as the other dancers sing in a chorus with him. Throughout the performance, the dance will pause while the dancers and other actors partake in a comical theatrical performance about a separating couple before the dances and music resume. The dancers wear formal dress with vests and the baton dancer wears a white feathered hat.

The Portu guese in America and Americans of Portuguese extraction are fortunate in this respect. They belong to a group that is not too large and that has not lost its outlines - and that furthermore, enjoys a noble tradition. The Portuguese are renowned for 1heir adventuous courage, for their willingness to work hard and their ability to work well, for their politeness and their friendliness, for their devoutness of spirit and their gaiety of heart. The Portuguese have roots that go deep into the centuries. This is their pride and strength . Like a great tree with the sources of its life below the earh, they flourish in fair weather and they are not shaken by the storm, But the branches of the tree wither when they are cut off from the main trunk. This is something the descendants of Portugal in America remember when they give their membership and support to the clubs, organizations and causes that keep their Portuguese identity alive and, by that fact, make them better Americans as w 'e ll. May the Spirit Never Die. -•- �WELCOME As host to the 30th annual convention of the Portuguese-American Civic League of Massachusetts, we, of the "Lawrence" Ladies' and Men 's councils, bid all of you attending this convention, "Welcome," to the friendliest city in the United States.

Buckley MAYOR OF LAWRENCE "The Portuguese-American Civic League demonstrated the ideals, the practices and all the elements which makes for true Americanism. It is only by the constant reiteration of the truth as we Americans conceive the truth to be, that we shall be able to maintain and advance those admirable qual ities of citizenship in keeping with the inherent dignity of man." �LA WREN CE, MASS. The history of our city begins in 1845, when the Essex Company began building the great stone dam across the Merrimack River to make water power. At the same time the Mills were also being constructed along the banks of the river. This community near the dam grew rapidly as people came in great numbers and from various places to work in the building of these projects. The advancement of this community m,a de it different from the quiet neighboring towns of Andover and Methuen and for this reason the Legislature of Massachusetts on April 17, 1847 passed a law incorporating this certain territory into a town and named it "Lawrence." It received its nanie in honor of Abbott Lawrence, who at that time was president of the Essex Company and who had invested mpst of his personal fortune in building the dam and canals which made Lawrence the industrial place it is today. The textile mills have always been the backbone of our cities indu,stry. Even before the city was named some of the mills were in operation . Lawrence has always stood high in the manufacturing of fine worsted cloth and for this it is noted all over the world . Lawrence has many industries as well as individual enterprises - the Champion International Paper Company now known as the Oxford Paper Company makes some of the world's finest coated paper; a number of firms make shoes; several make clothing out of cloth produced here; one makes plastic and rubber articles which are shipped all over the world and many smaller firms make things that are necessary and useful in every part of life. School and education have also played an important role in making Lawrence the thriving community she is today. At one tim~, only five one-room schools were within our cities boundaries - while today we have 22 public schools educating our children to become great leaders for the future . Progress has given Lawrence good schools, modern stores, smprt dress shops, new roads and splendid churches and yet the fu,t ure holds more as new industries are still moving into our fair city. Yes, Lawrence has traveled far - through a great past to a rich present and with the amlbition and integrity of our children today to a prosperous and promising future. �A Summary of the Portuguese Colony of Lawrence and the Ladies' and Men's Councils of the Portuguese-American Civic League of Mass. The Portugu,ese colony in Lawrence is as old as the City. Andrew Mideros, a Portuguese barber, was already established in a barber shop at the corner of Lawrence and Common Streets and lived with his family at 1 Bradford Street in 1853, when this six year old town received its charter as a city. Mr. John B. Sears, known as the father of the Lawrence Councils, organized the local Men's Council in 1930 with headquarters on Corrimon Street. A year later, in 1931, the Ladies' Council was successfully organized. Mr. Sears' and Mr. Gaiolas' advice, experience and active participation in organizational work have been invaluable in promoting friendship, education, unity and social welfare amongst our people. As a non-partisan civic association, our main activities include taking part in all civic affairs of the community, state and nation and promoting interest in American naturalization. The league is proud of its scholarship fuind which is supported through per capita fees and the annual ball. Four scholarships are awarded annually through a competitive examination. The Ladies' and Men's Councils take great pride in their welfare board which consists of ten members, appointed annually by the presidents. The purpose of thi s board is to aid the needy, guide and advise the nevv< comers to our country from Portugal and its Island s, and, in general, to help any one in any way possible. In 1948 a blood bank was organized which is available to all mlerribers and their families. The names, blood type, and telephone numbers of the donors are posted in the club halls. The local councils are proud of its Junior Girls baton and drill teams and the Junior Boys Drum Corps they have had throughout the years. They have progressed rapidly under the supervision of Herman Espinola, chairman, assisted by iMrs. Flora Silva, Mrs. Theresa Campisi, Thomas Sousa, and Manuel Sousa. Mr . Manuel Sears was elected the first president of the Lawirence N'(en's Council in 1931, followed by Clarence Andrews, 1932; Fred Couto, 1933-1934; Jeffrey Vasconcelos, 1935-1936; Manuel Sousa, 1937; Manuel Sears, 1938; Joseph Olivera, 1939-1940; Alvaro Gaiolas, 1941; John Rosa, 1942; Fred Couto, 1943-1947; Manuel D. Sousa, 1948-1949; Joviano G. Joaquim, 1950-1951; Jeffrey Vasconc;elos, 1952-1953; John D. Joaquim, 1954; Alvaro Gaiolas, 1955; Joseph Olivera, 1956; Alvaro Gaiolas, 1957; and Michael Silva, 1958-1960. Mrs. Jessie Espinola was the first president elected in the Ladies' Council in 1932. She a lso served in 1933-1934, fol lowed by Mrs. Elsie Foley, 1935-1936; Mrs. Jessie Espinola, 1937; Mrs. Ezilda (Cardoza) Silva, 1938-1939; Mrs . Millicent Silva, 1940; Mrs .

We are proud to be affiliated with the Portuguese-American Civic League of Massachusetts, and, "MAY THE SPIRIT NEVER DIE." �P. A. C. A. HALL 2 Saratoga Street - Lawrence, Mass. Through the efforts of Mr. Alvaro S. Gaiol as, then p resident of the Men's Council in 194 l, and one of the staunch supporters of the civic organization, the present headquarters at 2 Saratoga Street was purchased from the United Spanish War Veterans. Throu g h his untiring efforts this bu'ilding is still one of t'he nicer clubs in Lawrence. We have a bar in the basement floor, two meeting halls, kitch en and office on the first floor. A pleasant ballroom on the second f loor . It has t ruly been a community center for the Portuguese Colon y in Lawrence, and many a pleasant memory is conf ined within its wal Is fo r the past 19 years . �STS. PETER AND STS. PAUL Very Rev. Father Edward J. Carney, Pastor Our Church, SS Peter & Paul, had its beginning back in 1905, when it was organized by the Late Very Rev. James T. O'Reilly, O.S.A. , then pastor of Saint Mary's parish . It was due to the increasing population of Portuguese residents here that Father O'Reilly realized th e ne cessity of a church and priest to minister our needs. Our people attended services in the old Saint Mary's Church , which is now the site of Saint Mary's Auditorium from 1905 to 1907 while SS Peter & Paul Church was under construction . The cornerstone of the new edifice was laid Septemper 30, 1906 by the Late William Cardinal O'Connell and on August 4, 1907 our church was dedicated. The first pastor of our church was Rev. Paul Despouy, who remf!ined as pastor for about eight years. During his pastorate he built the parish house next to the church. As the years gradually passed, we had a total of thirteen pastors and then on September 8, 1956, Father Mccusker, who is still in charge was assigned as priest in charge of our little church. The first couple married after the church was organized in 1905, were Anthony E. Mendonca and Ann Perpetua; and the first boy and girl baptized were Charles Pereira and Mary Motta. The first couple married after the church was dedicated in 1907, were John Cardoso and Jacinta Sousa. The first boy and girl ba ptized were Frank Rodrigues and Olive Damas. �A Message from REV. JAMES J. McCUSKER, O.S.A. Priest in Charge Sts. Peter & Paul Church, Lawrence, Mass. It gives me great pleasure to extend a sincere greeting and a cordial welcome to the delegates to the thirtieth annual Convention of the Portuguese-Am erican Civic League of Massachusetts. I am sure that they, their families and friends will be m.o st gratified and happy that they have chosen Lawrence, "the friendly City of the Merrimack Valley" as the site of the Convention of 1960. In these days of so much unrest, so much social upheaval and internal discord, it is indeed most refreshing and wholesome to know that there are socities and organizations such as the P.A.C.L. who are united by the bond of Christian charity and pledged to the task of assisting their fellowman in the tim'e of need .

We sincerely hope that his brief stay in our fair city will be a pleasant one. �{/1t-•~u I-Je~r7, tJe v'\l.,,_v~Ator We would like to pause in this convention to pay horn.age to Prince Henry, in honor of the 500th Anniversary conim·e morating his death in 1460. Prince Henry could be called the m·an who unlocked the door to the wide field of ocean study. It is not often realized the importance that he played in the progress and development of the world. He served as an ,inspiration to others with his great maritim e discoveries and was chiefly responsible for the linking of the unknow"n world to the known world in the 15th and 16th centuries. Among many of his great missions was the rediscovery and colonization of Madeira in 1416 and the Azores in 1427. Expeditions grew in im:petus the following years and even after his death the Far East and the entire coast of Brazil had been reached and explored. From his great inspiration many Portuguese navigators, such as Magel Ian, helped other countries in their expeditions. It is to these great seamen, Vasco da Gama, Cabral, Dias, and many others, that we owe our vast progress in ocean navigation - the development of the great sailing. vessels of today, the discovery of the importance of nautical charts and methods of navigational direction end coast line study. It was recently stated by Professor Garrett Mattingly, a Pulitzer Prize author, that the modern world did not begin with Columbus, but actually began with the e<Jrlier voyages of Prince Henry. Henry was also responsible for the originating· of the caravel a three-masted sailing vessel without which the far-reaching expeditions of that time would not have been accomplished . Because of his desire to explore further, he needed a ship which would be able to cope with the sea and wind much more effectively than the vessels of his time. But the caravel 's importance and popularity only lasted 50 years. It was found that a much heavier vessel of about 400 tons was needed to carry heavy cargo and to be able to cope with the ruggedness of the sea. This was called the nau and was used in Vasco da Gama's voy•a ge to India in 1497. The Portuguese Navy will celebrate this anniversary commemoration by paying homage to Prince Henry and the other great sean,en of Portugal. Celebrations have already been initiated in the United States with a Te Deum in the Church of the Five Wounds in San Jose, California. In New Bedford, Massachusetts, masses in 4 churches began the commemoration on March 27. We can sum( up the greatness of this man in the Words of George E. Solosky, famed news columnist: "Henry the Navigator was a scientist rather than a politician. His services to mankind were greatest in the fields of navigation and astronomy. Unlike most rulers and politicians, what he builded can never be forgotten or destroyed." �GREETINGS AND BEST WISHES FROM MAYOR JOHN M.

C n 1 a g t M e d e m 0 I r y n Jc~ro Jifrattdsr11 IN COOPERATION WITH LAWRENCE LADIES' and MEN'S COUNCIL 2 SARA TOGA STRE ET LAWRE NCE, MASS. ' ~'\ �The story of Pedro Francisco began on a morning in early J une, 1765 when a four year old boy was put ashore by a strange sh ip at City Point, now a part of H opewell , Virginia. The boy, large for his age, was swarthy and handsome and the silver buckles of his shoes spelled out the initials " P.F. " Th e lad poke a mixture of Portuguese, French and Spanish. H e was taken to the Prince George poorhouse, where authorities cared for him while trying to find him a home. His story intrigued Judge Anthony Winston, who took him to his estate, his status that of a poor family relation. The boy grew up, set apart both by the mystery of his past and the awesome power of his rapidly developing physique. While still in his teens, he attained his full stature of 6 feet 6 inches tall and 260 pounds. It might be well to note here that long years later researches abroad seemed to suggest Ped ro's parents had arranged for his kidnapping and transportation to America because Pedro's fat her, a Portuguese nobleman, had become entangled in unsuccessful political machinations whose fai lure might mean his son's life. When the Revolutionary War began, Pedro Francisco was only 14 years old . In the Fall of 1776, at 16, he joined the 10th Virg inia Regiment of the Continental Army and fought with the unit for three years. H e fi rst saw action on the battlefield of Brandywine and it was here that Lafayette and Pedro met while both were treated for wounds; the first tentative step in what was to become a life-long friendship. Less than a month later, i>edro Francisco was in the battle at Germantown and from here to an even more desperate trial in defense of the American forts tbt e uard ed the lower D elaware and prevented the British from reinforcing their garrison in Philadelphia. The folJ owing June found him on the battlefield of Monmouth where he received his second wound ; it was to bother him for the rest of his li fe . A year later, he was back as a private in the Virginia line, ready to take part in the storming of the strong British outpost Paulus H ook and Stony Point - where Pedro received his third wound . Having served out his enlistment, Pedro returned to Virginia, but promptly volunteered again; this time in a militia regiment headed by Colonel William Mayo. The incompetent leadership of Commander Horatio Gates - and the army made up of a task force of young recruits gave the British at Camd en, S.C. an easy task of it. Cornwallis struck first smashing Gates' advance scout force and launched an attack at dawn; the fuj[ fo rce of which fell where the Virginia Militia regiment was stationed. There were few veterans like Pedro among them. All around Pedro Francisco we re wild ly running, screaming men. It was here that Pedro strained his mighty muscl es and lifted the 1100-pound cannon on his back and delivered his burden to the oncoming British offensive. H istory tells us that in thi s battlefield the life of Colonel William Mayo was saved by the heroism of Pedro Francisco. Back in Virginia, after the disaJster of Camden, a cavalry troop was bei ng formed and Pedro accepted the huge 5 foot sword presented him by General George Washington and joined the troop. The cavalry unit soon left for the embattled Carolinas. Commander Greene had chosen Guilford Courthouse as a battle site and here on March 15, 1781 the Americans and British colli ded in one of the bloodiest battles of the war and one that vi rtual ly determined the fate of the southern colonies, and the battle that was to immortalize Pedro Francisco. In the van, a massive figure wielding his 5 foot sword rode Pedro. Man after man went down before his overpowering strokes. Eleven men in a row fell before him. Even the leg wound, his fourth of the war, did not take Pedro out of the fight. In this last melee, Pedro received another and almost mortal wound. Riding headlong upon the squares of guardsmen, he was impaled upon a bayonet upthrust from the prickly hedge. The steel laid upon his entire upper leg ; doubled up with pain, Francisco stumbled from the saddle and collapsed on the battleground where he was found later by a Quaker - still breathing - and was taken to the home of the Quaker and nursed slowly back to health . By the time he had recovered , the war had moved ahead of him. The stage was being set for Yorktown and trudging north on foot, Pedro volunteered as a scout. At W ard's Tavern, nine dragoons (Tarleton Patrol) surprised him, but th rough a ruse, Pedro grabbed an enemy sabre, cut down th ree of the Britishers and escaped on a dragoon's horse. It was the last of his wartime exploits. After the British were defeated at Yorktown, Pedro Francisco acquired a home in Buckingham County and was elected Sergeant-at-Arms to the Hou e of D elegates in Virgin ia and served in that capacity until hi s death on January 16, 1836. Pedro Francisco is buried at Schockoe Hill Cemetery in Richmond. A tall granite column honoring Pedro Francisco is one of the land marks on the Gui lford Courthouse battlefield near Greensboro, North Carolina. The inscription on the monument dedicated to the " H ercu les of the American Revolution" : T o Pedro Francisco - a giant in stature, might an d courage, who slew in thi s engagement eleven of the enemy with his own broadsword rendering himself thereby 'perhaps the most famous private soldier of the Revolutionary W ar.' * * * * * * * * The Portuguese-American Civic League of Mass. is paying homage today to the Portuguese born Revo lutionary W ar hero, a peaceful man in private life and an epic f igh ter in battle. ,. �PROGRAJ\ J * * * * * * * * OPENING REMARKS SUPREME PRESIDENT MICHAEL SILVA, Honorary Chairman Welcome Specialty: Susan Pedro, Marilyn Naughton, Janice Kirkland, Christine Tobin, Judy Correia, Maureen Steph, Donna M.

When, in 1853, the six year old town received its charter as a city, a Portuguese barber, Andrew Mideros, was already established in a barber shop at the corner of Lawrence and Common Street, and lived, with his family, at 11 Bradford Street, wher,e, in 1856, he paid a tax of $41.02, at the rate of $7.60 per $1 ,000. Lawrence at the time had a population of about 16,000, and, with the exception of a few Germans, the residents of the city were of English, Irish and Scotch extraction. The Portuguese have the distinc tion of 1 eading all the other European groups to this community at that time. The cornerstone of the Portuguese Church of Sts. Peter and Paul was laid on September 30, 1906 , with elaborate ceremonies. It was dedicated on August 4. 1907. During the year 1930, MesfSrS. Joseph P. Correira, of New Bedford, Jose Bettencourt, of Cambridge, and John Sousa, of Lowell, JOHN B. SEARS interested Mr. John B. Sears, of Lawr{!nce, in organizing a Non-Partisan Civic Association. M~. Sears. realizing t~e necessity fo r such an organizaticln to · promote friendship, educat10n, umty, and social welfar.e of the Portuguese-A meri,can people of Greater Lawrence, and it~ suburbs, immediately called a general meeting cf all Portuguese. Portuguese-A mericans, Portuguese Clubs and Societ;,es, and under the direction 0£ Mr. Sears, now known as the Father of the Lawrence Councils the PortugueseAmerican Civic Association was organized in 1930. ' A year later in 1931, the, Ladies' Council was organized, and we are proud of the fa_c~ that we were one of the six councils to have organized the Portuguese-A merican C1v1c League of Massa.chusett s which number twenty-seven councils throughout the state today. . The La~rence councils took the initiative in organizing the Junior Boys' and Girls' Councils, a Junior Boys' Fife and Drum Corps, a_ .hmior Girls' Baton Team, and a Portugu_ese sch?ol, and has progressed rapidly sinc,e its beginning, starting with a membership of thirty and increasing to over five hundred including the Ladies', Men's, Junior Girls' and Boys' Councils.· · · · · · ' · · Ou~ main activ/ties are in t aking part in all civic affairs of the community, state and _nation, p~omotmg interest in American naturalization amongst our people, conductmg a Christmas basket fund for the needy and other charitable affairs. .

This collection reflects the organization of the local Portuguese American community from the start of the 20th century through the 1990s. Items focus on the Portuguese American Civic League, Holy Ghost Society, and Saint Peter and Paul's Church. About the <a href="https://www.lawrencehistorycenter.org/">Lawrence History Center (LHC)</a> Founded in 1978 as the Immigrant City Archives by German immigrant Eartha Dengler, the Lawrence History Center’s mission is to collect, preserve, share, and animate the history and heritage of Lawrence and its people. Currently in their fifth decade, LHC seeks to better serve a community that is rapidly changing due to immigration and changes in the local economy. The past few years have marked enormous growth for LHC as they move from being an organization that ‘collects and preserves’ stories of the city to one that animates these stories for current residents, researchers, and visitors to Lawrence through rich and varied programming, the strength of our collections and the power of the history of an immigrant city on the rise.

The past few years have marked enormous growth for LHC as they move from being an organization that ‘collects and preserves’ stories of the city to one that animates these stories for current residents, researchers, and visitors to Lawrence through rich and varied programming, the strength of our collections and the power of the history of an immigrant city on the rise.

When the city received its charter in 1853, Andrew Mideros was already working at his barber shop at the corner of Lawrence and Common Streets. In 1931, John B. Sears organized the Mens' Council for the Portuguese American Civic League, with Manuel Sears elected as its president. A Ladies' Council was formed one year later with Mrs. Jessie Espinola at the helm. In 1941, under the direction of President Alvaro S. Gaiolas, the group purchased a Club building from the United Spanish War Veterans. The Lawrence Portuguese American Club is still located in this building today at 2 Saratoga Street.

This collection reflects the organization of the local Portuguese American community from the start of the 20th century through the 1990s. Items focus on the Portuguese American Civic League, Holy Ghost Society, and Saint Peter and Paul's Church. About the <a href="https://www.lawrencehistorycenter.org/">Lawrence History Center (LHC)</a> Founded in 1978 as the Immigrant City Archives by German immigrant Eartha Dengler, the Lawrence History Center’s mission is to collect, preserve, share, and animate the history and heritage of Lawrence and its people. Currently in their fifth decade, LHC seeks to better serve a community that is rapidly changing due to immigration and changes in the local economy. The past few years have marked enormous growth for LHC as they move from being an organization that ‘collects and preserves’ stories of the city to one that animates these stories for current residents, researchers, and visitors to Lawrence through rich and varied programming, the strength of our collections and the power of the history of an immigrant city on the rise.

In 1970, Januario relocated to the United States with his wife, Fernanda (DeSousa) Leal, and they settled in Lowell, Massachusetts. He became a communicant of St. Anthony’s Church and a member of many local clubs including the Portuguese American Civic League, the Portuguese American Center, and the Holy Ghost Society. After immigrating to Lowell, he worked at Paris Shoe as a machine operator until 1978. He later began working for Bradford Industries, formerly known as Pandel, as an inspector until his retirement. In addition to being an avid videographer, Januario was also an active photographer, capturing events such as Carnaval celebrations, cantoria performances, Portuguese festas and festivals, general scenes and events around the Back Central neighborhood, and other moments related to the Portuguese community of Lowell. He captured hundreds of photographs of local community members and Portuguese culture, and thanks to his passion for both videography and photography, memories and traditions from the Portuguese American community in Lowell will now be preserved for the next generations to see. Januario passed away on February 28, 2022 and is survived by his four children—Roberta Agostinho, Alizabete Brum, Davido Leal, and Roberto Leal—and their families, including many grandchildren.
