Surnames: Marquez, Betancourt, Gonzalez
Ana Marquez was born around 1860 in the Canary Islands in Spain. She married a gentleman whose last name was Betancourt. I don't have his first name. They had two children: Carmen, born around 1879, and Manuel, born about 1880. Carmen married Manuel Gonzalez, who was born about 1877. They had three children: Oscar, born about 1899, Ana Maria, born about 1901, and Josefa Gonzalez, born on May 6, 1903. Josefa is my paternal grandmother. The Betancourt man who married Ana Marquez is my great-great-grandfather. How does this information compare with your data? The name Betancourt entered Cuba through two separate points: Havana and Santiago. My family is from the Havana branch. Any help is appreciated.

Jorge
