I'm trying to find distant family members with either Oliu or Mcewan. I am from Nicaragua and currently live in Texas. My mother's maiden name (Mcewan) comes from Scotland. Her grandfather Stephen Foster Mcewan emigrated into Nicaragua around 1901 to work as a mining engineer (San Ramon & Chontales). I am having difficulties linking his arrival into Nicaragua. I want to know more about his family in Scotland.
The Oliu comes from Gerona, Spain. My great grandfather Jose Oliu Rosello arrived in Cuba in 1894 with his brother. Shortly after, he left for Nicaragua where he got established. His brother remained in Cuba all of his life. I'm in contact with my Cuban relatives. However, I would like to know about my distant Spanish relatives.
If you happen to know about anyone with these names, please contact me, I'd love to talk to you. I can be reached at
