My grandfather (Juan Ramirez)was born in Quetzaltenango, Guatemala in 1888. He was the illegitimate son of Fermin Pelaez. His father did "recognize" him as his son. Fermin Pelaez also had a son by the name of Fermin Pelaez & he had daughters (who were very bright & wrote geography books). That familial line dated back to when the first Fermin Pelaez was appointed as governor to Quetzaltenango by the king of Spain. I found this years ago, but can't seem to locate it now. We may be related.

thank for the reply... that is really interesting.. All my grandmother told me is that they were born in this little town near Guatemala city.. San pedro ayanpuc, and the my great grandfather is already dead.. My grand mother migrated to Puerto Barrios when they were teenagers with all her siblings.. so i get my last name from her Pelaez.. My great grand mother name was Paula Diaz which she was married to Pelaez.. thats all i know today.. And yes.. maybe we are related.. that will be GREAT.. finally find some relatives.. lets keep in touch.. SERGIOPELAEZ77@GMAIL.COM
