| Hans Louzada 1917-98 in Lousada in the 1950s. Hans was the father of Emile Louzada and thus the grandfather of Karin - see right. | Karin Louzada visited in 2026 | Julian Land visited the Lousada district of Portugal in 2003. In the front foyer of the Civic Offices - see image to the left - note the name Vila de Louzada in the ceramic version of the emblem. Above - on the glass front door - is the town's emblem with the name Vila de Lousada | This church is in one of the Lousada villages in Portugal - possibly Lousada de Santa Margarida. Perhaps a generation of our ancestors exiled from Spain in 1492 were compulsorarily baptized here in 1497. But a son Pedro de Lousada moved away, for his son Amador de Lousada was baptized elsewhere and later resided at Vinhais to the east. | ||
