Re: Arribas

lastruchas1 — 2009-09-29 05:59:15Z

I searched all the online baptismal records for Vizcaya, Alava, and Guipuzcoa. I did not check Navarra, however. Can you get more specific information about where she may have been born? Regards, MM

Re: Arribas

peajay1971 — 2009-09-28 15:05:56Z

This is her maiden name.

Re: Arribas

lastruchas1 — 2009-09-28 06:02:02Z

Is this her maiden name or married name?

Re: Arribas

peajay1971 — 2009-09-28 03:18:24Z

Her name was Ascension Acedo Arribas she was born in 1891.

Re: Arribas

lastruchas1 — 2009-09-28 03:04:25Z

Hard to say if the surname is originally Basque, though there are plenty of arribas in the files. What is your ancestor's name and date of birth?

Arribas

peajay1971 — 2009-09-21 01:15:07Z

Is this a basque surname? I am trying to find something on my Great Grandmother... and I was told she was from the Basque Country...

Jose Procopius Aragon

lucyl42 — 2009-06-24 00:36:59Z

I am trying to locate family of Procopius Aragon that lived in Anton Chico, NM, Las Vegas, NM and in Southern Co at one time. He was born in 1858 and married Apolinaria Belarde in 1875 in Las Vegas, NM. There seems to be no records of his mother and father or siblings. Procopius and Apolonia had 7 children.

Any information from anyone will be greatly appreciated.

Re: NUNCIO..... NEW AT THIS

lastiasuain — 2009-06-10 23:14:34Z

Hello--I've done extensive research in the Basque Country of Spain and Torres is one of my "antipasados". Catalina Dorotea Torres-born 1801 in Azpilcueta, Spain; Joaquin Torres, born 1765 in Arizcun, and Martin Francisco Torres born 1736 in Arizcun as well. I've never run into the surname Nuncio, so it's probably not in the Basque area, but in another part of Spain. If I can help you in any way, feel free to contact me. I have a public tree for my Basque roots as well as my husband's American roots. It is called "Astiasuain-Maya/Purcell-Dobrinski"

Re: Carfanga family

SusanYbarra23 — 2009-03-11 00:32:34Z

Yes, Danny hired someone to do research for him. That person would be me. You can contact me by e-mail at
fybarra@earthlink.net if you'd like information about what was found.
I don't have the information in front of me at the moment because I am not in my office. I am writing from the Family History Library, but I believe that we found that
Simona was most likely an orphan who took the surname CAFRANGA. I believe we found a Simona who's birthday matched on the AHEB-BEHA records. (Just as lastrucha was trying to do for you, but found only the listing in 1773).
We found the orphan by doing a search for the given name and the date/place...without the surname.
I'm pretty sure there was a lot of information about the
Portuguese side GOMEZ, but I really don't remember it "off the top of my head." If you'll e-mail me then I'll be able to tell you more about that and we can talk about sending you copies if you like.

Re: where did they live in the basque country

SusanYbarra23 — 2009-03-11 00:25:34Z

There are going to be many, many towns in that region.
The Basque Country consists of 4 provinces in Spain and
3 provinces in France. You may want to get yourself a map
of that area. Each province has hundreds, even thousands of little towns in it. You might want to visit a site like
Buber's Basque Page to get familiar with the Basque Country.

lolano1 — 2009-02-15 00:01:10Z

I know my father's ancestors lived in the French Pyrinees, but I don't know what towns that can include. His last names: Etcheverry Etchegoyen Ezquiaga Curuchet.
Does anybody know which towns or cities would be considered to be in this region???

Re: Carfanga family

lastruchas1 — 2009-01-28 04:55:22Z

I searched through all of the Vizcaya baptismal records and could find nothing about a Simona Cafranga baptized in the region. I did find just one Simona Cafranga in all of Vizcaya (born in the Casco Viejo section of Bilbao) since records were first kept and through 1900, but unfortunately she was born in 1773:

Baptism Date:
1773-02-05

Name:
Agueda Simona Cafranga Acha

Father:
Manuel Cafranga Zarandona

Mother:
Maria Acha Mendiola

Bermeo, Vizcaya

Hi.. I'm Milton H.R. Yarzagaray. Born on the island of Curacao (Next to Aruba) and my father was born on the island of Aruba. His name is Milton N. Yarzagaray and his father's name was Cornelis Yarzagaray. Further back then that I will have to check with elder family members yet most of what has been stated already sounds familiar to me. I was told the family name was Yarza Garay and that it's from the Basque regions of spain. If i manage to get my hands on any relevant details I'll make sure to post it here.

Hi Joe,
I guessed it was. Uncle Frank has the wedding certificate, and he's sending it down to me. As you may know I'm having a villa built in Portugal, and my Portuguese friend who is overseeing the project speaks excellent English) If Manuel Gomes da Silva was born in Porto (or Oporto = The Port) then we can seatch fro his birth certificate. I must be returning to my roots!
I'll send you some pics of the villa.

God Bless,

Cormac

Re: Carfanga family

maxarmagh — 2008-12-19 22:50:21Z

My grandfather was Anastatio Gomez. His parents were Simona Cafranga who married Manuel Gomes da Silva in St. Peter's RC church Liverpool on 17th July 1882. At the time Simona was 33, and her father was Baptiste Cafranga. Manuel was 25 and his father was Joseph da Silva.
What is your connection to the family?

Alvarado / Echevarria or Echebarria ancestors in Santander and Bilbao.

bilbao32 — 2007-11-01 12:20:23Z

I am trying to trace my fathers side of the family. His mother was born in Bilbao in November 1898 her name was Amparo Echevarria or Echebarria and her fathers name was Ebaristo. My fathers father was born in Santander (Cantabria region) in 1892, his name was Florentino Alvarado and his fathers name was Marcelino Alvarado.

Amparo and Florentino left Spain, I think at different times, and met and married in Merthyr Tydfil, South Wales, UK in 1925.

I don't know who to contact in Spain to find out more information about their families.

Hello, and thank you so much for the information. As far as any other information in Cuba, I am sorry, but I do not have anything. My grandfather kept in touch with his parents and sisters in Cuba for quite some time, but I only found two pictures sent to him from his sister Catalina and a picture of his parents. I never did find any of their letters unfortunately.

Re: YARZAGARAY

lastruchas1 — 2008-01-21 02:57:20Z

Have you considered the possibility that your ancestor's surname may have been composed of two separate surnames that were later merged?

Yarza + Garay = Yarzagaray

There are several Yarza Garays in Vizcaya, so it could be that the same is true in Guipuzcoa. Good luck!

By the way, my grandfather was born in Aruba. His name was Eloy Ruiz Fanfer or Vanveer. I have been unable to locate him on the web. Do you have any suggestions on how to locate his birth records?

Re: Beascoechea, Francisco b. 1902 Bermeo? Spain

lastruchas1 — 2008-01-20 18:52:27Z

I found Rufino Beascoechea Uriarte, who was baptized on Nov 16 1866 in Bermeo, at the La Asunción de Nuestra Señora parish. His parents were Prudencio Beascoechea Apraiz and Ventura Uriarte Segura.

I found a baptismal record for Justina Asteinza Anazagasti, dated Feb 15 1868, born to Pedro Asteinza Abio and Fernanda Anazagasti Goienechea. Same parish in Bermeo as Rufino. Please note that there are other Justinas (no Juastinas), but this one was by far the closest in age to Rufino.

I could not find marriage records for Rufino and Justina/Juastina, but this is not unusual.

I could not find Francisco or Catalina Beascoechea (I played with the spelling, by the way) in all of Vizcaya, but please note that if they were born after 1900, the files are not online. Your next step would be to contact the parish directly.

By the way, I am trying to find information on my ancestors who moved to Cuba. Do you have any suggestions?

Good luck!

Hey, did you know that Fermin and Lucio were twins?

Do you need the names of their parents or have you already found them?

Do you need the name of an excellent researcher who has access to the Mormon files and has lots of experience researching Basque ancestors? If so, let me know and I will put you in touch with Susan Ybarra.

Glad to see that you have joined Ancestry. I have been adding Arriens to my tree this weekend.

Do you mean Phillip Arrien from Waco, TX?
