I was born and raised in Lapu-Lapu City, Cebu. What I've been told by my father,, Ireneo Tampus Ybanez, was that he had an uncle named Mundo (Raymundo or Edmundo?) Ybanez who migrated to northern Cebu (Bogo)to look for better opportunities in the haciendas over there. So that when I come to know of an Ybanez or Ibanez from northern Cebu I readily think that most likely the person is related to me by blood. And I feel good! very good, in fact!!
