Surnames: Oquendo-Oquendo
I'm 3rd generation Oquendo PR, living in the Chicago Area. My brother Nicholas and I have a father Named Juan David Oquendo 48. Whose father, our grandfather Zaragoza Oquendo migrated from Utuado PR in the 1950's with his 4 brothers, Efred, Jorge, Binso, and Angelo. Their mother was my Great Grandfather David Oquendo's, 1st cousin (common practice in the late 1800's) Juanita Oquendo-?. They had a small farm in the hills of Utuado, PR. From this marriage was born Ester, Angelo, Zaragoza, Binso, Efred, Jorge. I definately know for sure that my Great Grandfather's had a 1st wife before Juanita (name unknown to me) , who then had 5 children by the name of Peto, Feliciano, David Jr. Rafaela, and Crusma. I met 2 of the my grandfather's have siblings, but others I have not. And my father tells me that there are have cousins and so forth that have migrated to Chicago, New York, Florida, etc. I am interested in knowing because I have a 4 year old daughter Angelina A. Oquendo is 4th generation decendent of my grandfather Zaragoza who directly migration from PR. Still alive and continues to live in Chicago.

John,

This is your uncle Freddie (real name Primitivo) writing to you with a few corrections. First, David Oquendo's first wife name was Leonor Medina, her children were named Rafaela (eldest) died of cancer, next was Maximino (Pito), Feliciano, Cruz Maria and last David. Second marriage to Juanita Oquendo resulted in the birth of Esther Maria Oquendo, Zaragoza, Binso real name is Luis Fermin Oquendo. Angelo's real name is Angel Amparo Oquendo, Primitivo (Freddie), Jorge.

They all grew up in the community of Pellejas, PR that is located between Utuado and Adjuntas. Zaragoza arrived to Chicago in 1947-8 and the others followed years later.

Hi, my sister Nancy is Luis Fermin's (Binso) daughter. Binso moved to Bridgeport, CT in 1950. He married Rafaela Maldonado in 1954. Nancy Aurora Oquendo was born March 30, 1958. Nancy currently lives in Bridgeport with her two daughters: Meghan 14 and Caitlin 12. I'm sure she would love to get in touch with her cousins. Nancy's e-mail is oquendona46@hotmail.com

Surnames: Oquendo
Hi my name is Lora Oquendo. Would you or your Uncle happen to know any Oquendo's from Ponce, Puerto Rico? My fathers name is Patrick Oquendo born and raised in New York. His fathers name is Miguel Oquendo, from Ponce Puerto Rico. Miguels fathers name is Valentine Oquendo. I believe Miguel had a host of brothers and sisters. My father only remembers one of their names. Rafael Oquendo. My father mentions the name Serafina. He said his father had a picture of Serafina in a beautiful Spanish dance dress, but he doesn't know who Serafina is. Said his father carried that picture around and spoke of Serafina, but my father doesn't remember why. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
