Mir
I would love to share the information I have. I made a mistake, though, I am the 2nd great grandson or Tatara nieto of Luis Mir (I think). Until the revolution, our family was still working the land in and around Mir. I recently came from there and have pictures, although I don't think you will agree it is a big, bustling town. My uncle, Ediberto Mir was the last to own any land before the revolution. His father (also Ediberto Mir) had a brother name Belarmino (spelling?) who still has relatives in Mir today. I have pictures of both. My cousin, Hector Jose Mir, may have pictures of Luis Mir. If all this is rings true to you then we are "parientes". I heard of another Mir who was a printer in San German where Don Berlarmino would get his stationary printed(He, Don B., had an almecen or general store). I visited Don Berlarmino's daughter, Amalia, in Havana. She is in her eighties. I visited a lot of relatives and, along with my cousin Hector Jose, we are trying to come up with a family tree of the Mirs. Again I would love the opportunity to share any and all information at my disposal, share with you my trip to Cuba to find out more about my / our family and any pictures I took while traveling there.
