Classification: Query
Surnames: Pozo, Del Pozo, Pozzo
I am cuban and am researching my last name, Pozo. My great uncle was Justo Luis del Pozo (mayor of Havana in the 1950's). According to my father, around 1600 - 1610, an italian ship sank off the northeastern province of Pinar del Rio. The ship's name was Mantova. The shipwreck's survivors founded the city of Mantua in Cuba. It turns out that many of the shiprwreck's survivors had the last name of "Pozzo". Our family in Cuba originated from this region of Pinar del Rio. Obviously, I'm trying to determine if there is a connection.

I would appreciate anyone's help/assistance and input regarding this research.

Thank you!

Albert
