Félix RIME (ggggrandf), born in Charmey on/around 1784, catholic, farmer, emigrant occupying house #8 of lot #41.
Married to Véronique TORNARE, (ggg grandm) also born in Charmey, in 1785, died in Nova Friburgo, Brazil in 3/30/1850, buried at the cemetary "Jacinto".
After their arrival four more children were born, 2 boys and 2 girls (João José, Jesuina Maria RIME, born 1/18/1823, died 5/15/1823, Alexandre RIME, born 12/29/1823, died 1/2/1824, Maria Luiza RIME, born 8/24/1825, died 4/22/1859), leaving the boy Joao Jose to carry the family name.
The original surviving daughter Marianne Catherine RIME, (gg grandm) born in Charmey, on/around 1816, married my gg grandf Charles PINEL in 4/27/1835.
They had eight children:
1- Maria Leontina PINEL, born in Nova Friburgo on 4/23/1837.
2- Cypriano Luiz Felipe PINEL, born in Nova Friburgo on 5/8/1841.
3- Joanna Honorina PINEL, born in Nova Friburgo on 3/12/1845.
4- Carlos Scipião PINEL, born in Nova Friburgo on 4/22/1847.
5- Clara Dorotéa PINEL, born in Nova Friburgo on 8/11/1849.
6- Luiz Leão PINEL, born in Nova Friburgo on 12/25/1852.
7- Amélia PINEL, born in Nova Friburgo on 7/27/1854.
8- Henrique Camillo PINEL, born in N. F. on 7/14/1858, my g grandf.
Until the nineteenth century some people of this family used the two forms Rime and Remy. Starting from 1850 (Law of 20.11.1849 establishing the official spelling of surnames in the canton of Freiburg) the surnames were set according to the different branches, in the manner Rime, Remy, and Remy in Switzerland.
In Brazil, the family settle on the spelling Rimes.

Note: Cyprien did not die in the ship. He survived, arrived in Brasil and later married Maria Florentina Muret. This comes from a comment posted by a descendant of Cyprien and Maria Florentina

Her book has a good history of the Pinel Family in Brasil, where I got most of my information.
Hi, my name is Juliane, I'm Brazilian, I live in rio de janeiro, do not speak English very well, so if I miss something, sorry.
I read your post, and saw an error, Cyprien (Cyprian) died not come to Brazil, he survived the journey and arrived in Nova Friburgo, where he lived and married Maria Florentina Muret.
I know this story because it is my ggggrandf Cyprian.
I loved the post!
