Hello. I got hope when I saw this message about the Yaps. My father is a yap. His mother is half-chinese. And as I could remember, he told me once that his family came from amoy, china. I hope we could see if there is any connections between our families.

My grandfather "Itiong" Yap is from Cebu. He is from Amoy China also. We were told that he left for the mainland right before WW2. He married my grandma Rosario Tepacia Lim.

Am now in Cavite but teh whoel clan is still in Cebu specifically in Alegria, Mandaue and Cebu City..

It would be good to know the name of the YAP from the magnificent 7 who came to Cebu.

Thanks!
