Hi everyone! My name is Joemel Escarda Cala. My father is Jose Barredo Cala, and my grandfather is Juan Cala. During the time of my grandfather, they lived in Manila, Philippines. He was married to my Japanese grandmother whom I call "lola Doring". I have three siblings namely Jonathan Cala, Michele Gonzales Cala, and Jomelie Cala. My kuya and ate, Jonathan and Michele respectively, now resides in California, while me and my sister Jomelie are currently staying with our mom here in Negros Occidental, Philippines and our dad in Oakland, California, USA. Soon we will also be going there with them, and probably sooner this year. My dad told us to trace up our relatives here, and I found some of them in Friendster using this address:
http://profiles.friendster.com/50233111. There were names there like Cala-Veloso, Cala-Larrazabal, Cala-Mendezona, and Cala-Arradaza, I guessed they were the children of the first Cala Family in the Philippines. I'm still going to ask my dad but maybe one of them is the my great grandfather. Well for now, I will still be tracing-up first the origin of our ancestors here before moving to a more broad research hehe! by the way, here's my Friendster email address
