Zaida,

It would help if you put both your father's surnames
and your mother's so that it may be easier to
locate them. Also where they were from.
Many of the Oquendo were from Vega Baja, Morovis, Corozal
and Adjuntas. The Oquendo wherever they were located
had big families.

I have an Agapito Oquendo but he was further back. He had a
Son born in 1866.

Hi, my name is Felix M. Mateo i'm sixteen and my moms name is Luz Oquendo-Mateo born and raised in Puerto Rico in Calmelita, Vega Baja. Her father my grandfather is named Lino Oquendo he's very well known in Puerto Rico for being well off financially. His father my great grand father passed on about 1991 i don't remember his name but they called him cru el loco or don cru. He lived in brenia and thats were my grand father was born. He owned a large farm. My grand father has one brother that he ws very close to up until about 3 or 4 years ago when something happened between them but he won't say what it was. At the time they both lived in the Bronx, New York. after the mishap my grandfather brother moved to New Jersey and then back home to P.R. His name is Vicente Oquendo they call him Pulpo. My grand father has many children. Seven that i know of and 4 others that i'm not sure about. My grandfather used to live in the U.S. Virgin Islands and married there. because of some problems he was forced to flee. His brother in-law was murdered and his in-laws thought he had something to with it which he didn't but since then he hasn't gone back. He left two sons Carlos and Rosieo. They were in the boys scouts or coast gaurds not sure of which. One of them came to the U.S. adn attened Boston College to be A doctor while there he wrote to my mother. They wrote back adn fourth many times and then he just stopped all together and hasn't written back since. That was when my mom was about 16 or 17 she's now 33and would very much like to know about her long lost brothers or any part of her family. When myy grandfather came to U.S. he got with ny grandmother my mom's mom. Her name is Carmen Lydia Santos also born in P.R. in Calmelita, Vega Baja. my grandfather still lives in the Bronx, New York. If u have any info or if u heard any of what i have said to u when u were younger please respond. THANK YOU

I had a friend in N Y C named Nelson Aquino-Oquendo..from Peurto Rico originally, his mothers name was Carmen Nelson had sevefral brothers,I think his father was sort of a "social misfit" or "on the lam " Nelson is in his late forties.when I knew him he lived in Spanish Harlem.on 102nd street in Manhattan. he has a son Nelson Jr who would now be in his early twenties..Nelson came to England with me in 1977 to help in my business there. he didnt stay long as he missed his son..after London I moved to California, Nelson came to visit me one time in the mid eighties, I have since lost track of him..and am trying to find him too, just as you are trying to locate information on the Oquendo family..I dont imagine thaT i have been of any help to you , but it seems very similar, and I thought at least you may find a connection here.. Good luck, feel free to email me Regards Derek.

I don't know too much about my family. My father Ramon Oquendo, pass away in Feb of 2002. And it's now that i realize how much I'm wanting to know about my family history. I found in my dad possession, his birth certificate. And my grandfather's name was Vicente Oquendo. To my knowledge he was born in Utuado, PR, back in 1882. He was married to Cleope Alvarez ( grandmother ). If you feel that we can help one another and possibly learn more about the family, please respond back...
