You are all related as as all of the other Yulfo's I have responded to in the past. The reason the name was changed to Yulfo was because most imigrants to the new world had very little education and were unable to write their names. The names were printed on entry forms as they sounded to the imbarkation officials. The name Guffo (which meant cow lick or curl) was the original spelling (pronounced "Jewfo" as in Juno) as near as researchers could determine. For those people living in the Florida area can contact Alice DeJesus Yulfo in Orlando she has the complete printout of the family tree that Willy Yulfo gave her when she was living in Puerto Rico. I got a copy of the family tree from Alice a number of years ago and have added many names to it and used it to rejoin quite a few family members. I have spoken to Willy many times over the years and we were able to clear up some names and records. Willy has been unable to update his records for awhile now because his computer has broken down. Please feel free to contact me or cousin Alice and I will be happy to help. I am sorry I do not get to look at the Boards as often as I used to
Regards to all
Frank Y

Frank, I forgot to ask you. How did you find out the original spelling of our name? Were you able to find any actual documents showing when the first person of our family arrived in Puerto Rico or the United States?
