Do you have any records of where your name originated from in Spain? Do you have any predominant first names? My name PUJOL came fromMombrio de Taragona and my granfather emigrated to Panama in the 1800?

Edward Pujol Sr.

I ONLY KNOW THAT MY GRANDFATHER CAME FROM MOMBRIO DE TARRAGONA AND THAT HE HAD TWO OTHER BROTHERS, THEY ARRIVED IN PANAMA IN THE LATE 1800 AND THEY WERE CARLISTAS. DON'T KNOW IF THIS WILL HELP. THE PREDOMINANT NAMES ARE JOSE, LUIS, FILOMENA, IBERA.

Family members came from Toulouse area of france about 1905. Pierre Pujol settled in New Orleans and worked as chef. Marie and Ann Pujol settled in NYC and worked as cook and nanny till they married. Both married men from same region of France. Some family members still live in a small village which is called Ouest or Ouste near Toulouse. They also had half-brother with surname of Laffitte.

In 1905 or thereabout, three siblings came from Toulouse to America. Marie and her sister Anna settled in NYC. There brother Pierre settled in New Orleans. He someone who may have been named Josephine, then, after her death married someone named Ebbie. I cannot recall any children from his family. Marie and Anna both married men from France and had children in the NYC area. I know of a half brother to them who was named Joe Laffitte. I know that many people with the Pujol name still reside in the area of Toulouse in France.

I am also of the PUJOL name, but my grandfather came from Mombrio de Tarragona in the province of Cataluynia. I don't know of this will have any traces in your family. He immigrated to Panama in the late 1800. He had two brothers one named Louis and I beleive the other was Augusto but I am not sure. I know that the PUJOL name is also from the French Pyranees. If you have any other information let me know.

I am the granddaughter of JOSE PUJOL, from Mombrio de Tagarogona Provincia de Cataluynia, SPain. He immigrated to Panama in the late 1800 and had two brothers that left Spain with him. He was a Carlista. His mothers name was Filomena Pujol and I believe she and his father were cousins. Thats all I know

I've been reading some of your posts. My Grandfather, Jose Pujol, originally came from Panama and immigrated to Miami in the late 1950s or early 1960s.
He was married to Isabel who is still living in Miami. He passed away about 8 years ago and his three Children (one of whom is my father, Jose A. Pujol)
live in Miami and Panama. As a child I remember hearing stories of how my grandfather's father (or maybe it was his grandfather) was one of two brothers
who came from Spain to the Americas chasing a Spanish Dancer they both were in love with. They lost track of her but heard that she either went to Cuba or Panama.
So they split up and that's how the name got to Panama and Cuba. Does any of this sound familiar? Are we related in someway?

Take care, Alex.

I AM YOUR FATHERS FIRST COUSIN AND I MET YOU WHEN YOU WERE VERY LITTLE. YOU SPENT SOME TIME WITH ME IN NORFOLK, VIRGINIA. THE STORY OF YOUR GREAT GRANDFATHER JOSE PUJOL Y PUJOL AS I KNOW IT IS A FOLLOWS. THERE WERE THREE BROTHERS, JOSE, LUIS AND I NEVER KNEW THE OTHER ONES NAME. THEY WERE "CARLISTAS" IN OTHER WORDS THEY WERE FAITHFUL TO EL REY CARLOS DE ESPANA. THEY LEFT SPAIN WITH SOME MONEY TO BUY ARMS AND RETURN TO SPAIN I DON'T KNOW IF THE STORY ABOUT THE DANCER IS TRUE BUT I DO KNOW THAT THE BROTHERS HAD A FALLING OUT OVER THE MONEY AND MY GRANDFATHER NEVER SPOKE ABOUT THEM AGAIN. MY GRANDFATHER ARRIVES IN PANAMA IN THE LATE 1800, I WOULD SAY ARROUND 1890-95. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT HIS BROTHER OR FAMILY OF HIS BROTHER LIVE IN COSTA RICA WHERE THEY ARE VERY WEALTHY, THIS HAS BEEN CONFIRMED BY A COUSIN THAT LIVES IN COSTA RICA AND HAS MET THEM. ALSO ONE OF THE BROTHERS HAD A MATCH FACTORY IN MEXICO, SO I HAVE BEEN TOLD. WHAT I DO KNOW FOR SURE IS THAT THE GENERALISIMO DE CATALUYNIA (THE GOVERNOR) IS JORDI PUJOL WHO IS SUPPOSED TO BE RELATED TO US AND i KNOW THIS BECAUSE OF AN AUNT THAT HAS BEEN TO SPAIN SEVERAL TIMES AND HAS BEEN AT CONFERENCES WITH HIM AN HIS WIFE AND ESTABLISHED TO CONNECTION. YOUR GRANDFATHER JOSE ARRIVED IN MIAMI AROUNF 1957 OR 58 I BELIEVE. I WENT TO SPAIN THIS YEAR BUT DID NOT MAKE IT TOWN GRANDFATHER VILLAGE. BUT HERE IS THE DATA ON JOSE PUJOL Y PUJOL. MARRIED FILOMENA PUJOL HE WAS FROM MOMBRIO DE TARAGONNA EN CATALUYNIA. IF YOU WANT ENAYMORE INFORMATION OR IF YOU ACQUIRE ANYMORE E-MAIL ME AT MY PTAGA@HOTMAIL.COM.
