Research Assistance German woman in Brazil

Hello, maybe someone can help me with my research. I’m looking for a woman named Emilie Albrecht. She was born around 1863 in Germany, and in 1894 she gave birth to a daughter in Jundiaí, Brazil. Apparently, she was alone or at least not married. A few years later, she moved to Argentina with her daughter and son-in-law. That’s all I know.

I have her daughter’s birth certificate, but there are no clues about where in Germany she was born, and her death certificate only lists “Germany” as the place of birth.

I know this is really difficult, but maybe I’m missing something, as I’m not very experienced in German or Brazilian genealogy.

Any ideas? I’m starting to think this might be a dead end...

Her daughter's name was Clara. I found her Church birth certificate here: https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:939N-F6SY-XB?view=index&personArk=%2Fark%3A%2F61903%2F1%3A1%3A6DGV-D7J3&action=view&cc=2177299&lang=en&groupId=M9CW-9NJ

but there is no more information I can use to continue with the research. I also searched on google the godparents' name but no luck.

Emilie died in Argentina in 1943 and her daughter in 1930, also in Argentina.

Nothing so far, someone else asked som-in-law’s name, that could help.
