Hola
First time here. I am playing my alto again after several years not. Great horn a 1960 The Martin. So building my chops again. Hit the wall on fingerings. I need to find a book, chart something that will show me correct fingerings, not just the notes for notes like; Cm7, Dm7b5, Dbmaj7, Ebm7 and so on. Spent the last few days trying to find anything online with no luck. I live now in Ecuador and books, charts from music stores are far and few between. Any direction and or help would be great. Have a honkin' day.

Ouch!
The problem you're having isn't "notes", it's where you fit in "chords". Cm7, Dm7b5, Dbmaj7, Ebm7 are chords (groups of notes), not individual notes.
What you need to find is alto lead sheets for the music you're playing - in a group you might be playing a second or third part adding to harmony, but it seems you're looking for the melody, and the lead sheets will be close.
