My name is Alvaro Socarrás Sanchez Garcia. I was born in the Province of Camagüey, Cuba. I also have the Garcia Rojas y Loret De Mola surnames. I have a family tree that states that Gabriel Socarrás Fleites Cervellón é Infante arrived to Puerto Principe (Camagüey province, Cuba) from the Canary Islands in the early part of the 17 century.
I was also told by an ancestry "expert" from Spain that the name Socarrás was originally spelled Socarrat, from Cataluña, Spain and that it means "burned". I also heard that it could be,with a diferent spelling, of French origen.
I would like to exchange info. with anybody interested.
I also speak spanish.
Sincerely,
Al
