Yumet's origin

Hi to all,
I'll write in English because it seems that some of us are more confortable with it.
My name is Jose Luis Yumet, son of Jose Enrique Yumet and Gladys Menendez.
My father's parent were Jose Angel Feliciano Yumet Mendez, the poet from Aguadilla, PR. (Yes, he had three names)
and Maria Perez Gonzalez from Camuy, PR.

I've always heard two stories of the Yumet surname origin.
One tell the story of a Frenchman named Yumette (two "t" and "e" at the end) who crossed the Pyrenees and established residence in Spain.
The other story is about a Flemish soldier who immigrate to Spain. The only clue is about a town in Belgium named "Jumet".

Anyway... What I've founded so far is about a Spanish Custom official, Yumet-Prieto who married Narcissa Marin-Lassus (Chita) who established in Aguadilla and had to my account 7 children:
Luis Yumet-Marin
Jose (Pepe) Yumet-Marin
Angel Maria Yumet-Marin
Fernando Yumet-Marin
Eloisa Yumet-Marin
Antonio Yumet-Marin
and someone who's nickname sounded like Caquere (??)

Angel Maria is my Great-grandfather and the side of the family I know the most. He married Alejandrina Mendez-Bas
and had 7 kids:
Jose Angel Yumet-Mendez
Maria Yumet-Mendez
Angel Maria (Lulito) Yumet-Mendez
Alejandrina (Nina) Yumet-Mendez
Rita Yumet-Mendez
Candelaria (Yaya) Yumet-Mendez
Raul Yumet-Mendez

As far as I know, Jose Angel Yumet Mendez (my grandfather) had children with three different women:

with Adela Marrero:
Miguel Angel Yumet-Mendez, b.190?, long time newspaper writter.
Jose Luis Yumet-Mendez, b.1908, died young.
Victor Yumet-Mendez, b.1910
Carmen Rita Yumet-Mendez, b.1912 and still alive in PR
Enrique Yumet-Mendez, allegedly died as a child but not sure.

with Rufina ???? (sorry don't have last name)
Carlos Yumet-????

with Maria Perez
Jose Enrique Yumet Perez (my father),b.1923, living in PR

I have some more scatter info, which I'm attempting to put together.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

Thanks a lot for your input. It is a wonderful addition to our family dbase

My data matches yours with the exception of a few details, such as JOSE YUMET PRIETO having been a Spanish Customs official. That is a new piece of information. Where did you get it. I wonder if we could trace him thru that?

There are also some differences in the names of some of the descendants. Would love to clear this up. Would you e-mail me privately to anar@the-cia.net ?

Hi Ana,
Most of the information I gathered has been through my father Jose E. Yumet Perez and his mother...The story about Jose Yumet-Prieto is new to me as well and was told to me by my father. I've contact him and will be sending me some documentation. I'll be happy to share when I gets it.

What's your relationship we our family? I'm interested in finding as much as I can.

Thanks again

Fa. YUMET PRIETO
