Hello Paulo!
What religion did your ancestors belong to? We have Catholic and Orthodox records for Utena available through FamilySearch (see this page for more information: https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/results?count=20&placeId=1212890&query=%2Bplace%3A%22Lithuania%2C%20Utena%22&subjectsOpen=1212894-50)
There are also additional Catholic records available for a broader number of years available through the Lithuanian website Epaveldas. You can read more about how to use the website here: https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/img_auth.php/c/c8/1-ePaveldas_Records_Online-Instruction.pdf but this is a sample search that I did for Utena (use Utenos to search, it's in the right grammatical case that way), and these are the birth records from 1874-1881: https://www.epaveldas.lt/object/recordDescription/ARCH/1499/1/2. That should cover the time frame of the birth of Adomas. The records are not indexed, and you'll have to do a page by page search to locate the records. They will likely be written in Russian. You can use the "How to" guides at https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Russia_%22How_to%22_Guides to help you with the alphabet and handwriting.
This is another site that indexes Lithuanian Catholic church records which can be found at https://www.metrikai.lt/index.php. They don't currently have indexes for Utena, but check back often as they add new records all the time!
If your ancestors belonged to a different religion, let me know and I'll see if I can help you find some records.
As for passenger lists, I'm not very familiar with immigration to Brazil (you might ask in the Latin American Community group), but you may find this Wiki page useful: https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/en/Brazil_Emigration_and_Immigration
They also have the same page in Spanish (https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/es/Emigraci%C3%B3n_e_inmigraci%C3%B3n_de_Brasil) and Portuguese (https://www.familysearch.org/wiki/pt/Brasil_Emigra%C3%A7%C3%A3o_e_Imigra%C3%A7%C3%A3o)
I hope this helps!

Hi,
you can try to search Lithuanian archives and order some info from them if people match.
no idea if it's the same Adomas but for example
I think ,Jono means "son of Jonas" but not sure
search for Paranas shows three entries, two of them for Pranas son of Josef)
Tekle and Genovaité, if listed, would probably be under their maiden name, do you know it?
Serapinas is a last name rather than first one, what's the first name for your granddad?
What does "Youurs sons" refer to, "sons of Juris" perhaps? If you are referring to any docs in Russian or Lithuanian, please send a copy so that we can check the spelling.
thanks,
Igor.
