LF: Vadui/Badui Surname from Dominica

Surnames: Badui, Vadui, Curet, Modesto
Hello, I am looking for information concerning this surname and perhaps family associated with it. Even on what is available to search online for early records (I am thinking late 1790's to the first half of the 1800's).

This is what I know:

Mauricio Vadui/Badui and Maria Modesto(a) were born in Domincia. They immigrated to Maunabo, Puerto Rico bef 1869. So far I have determined two of their children based on birth records: Mariana Vadui/Badui and Augustin Badui. I am not sure, but it seems as though the surname spelling with the V lasted through the birth of Mariana's Grandchildren by her daughter Manuela's son- Juan Loran Curet Y Vadui b. 14 Jun 1914. Through the Augustin line is seems he adopted the use of "B" pretty early on.

Any breadcrumbs or hints would be greatly appreciated. Thank You in Advance,
