I offer myself to questions regarding Paraguay. I can't promise more than I know personally and a few local calls, phone directoy, etc... but in many cases it will help.

Is it possibel to retreive information on a person going to and dying in Paraguay in the early 1900s'

Send me all the data you can, we can search a little... Complete name, from where, occupation... you never knows...

Martin

I would like any information possible on my grandfather Oliver Otis Boggs he was an adventurer and ended up in Ascuncion Paraguay
where he lived out his life.
He was b.1869 Lucas co Iowa M.1891 Clark co Iowa to Minnie C.Huffman and d sometime prior to 1962 possibly in asuncion. he worked for a company that made furniture in the new orleans section of the U.S. he went to paraguay by way of Brazil to get lumber to bring back to the us. he never returned. He left his wife and 2 children one being my father. If you can find any information of any kind on Oliver Otis Iwould be so very greatful.
Thank You.Sorry I didn't get bac to you sooner.

Jacqueline, It seems I found something...
I search by the civil registers and found only one Boggs (over 18 years old) Her name is Zully Beatriz Boggs. By the ID Card number, it appears to have maybe 30 years, but this is only a supposition...
I asked by the name and ID Card to a local credit info service and they gave me the physical address. The problem is that is a little town near Asuncion. She has no phone. I call a client that lives in this town and ask for the address. He knows where it is and he will go this week end to try to found her (we dont know if she lives still there...) I ll try to see her and ask about their parents, etc... I cant promise you... but you are lucky to search a so distinctive name, Im pretty sure... Ill keep you informed. Best Regards,
Martin

Dear Martin,
I am looking for any information on my father's uncle and aunt named McNamara who migrated to Paraquay in the 1890s from Australia as part of a utopian socialist movement. Family stories hold that the older generation returned to Australia, but four of my father's cousins who were born in Paraquay remained. Last contact was in the 1930s. Psotcards were sent from the Caapucay region.
I realise the family might have moved on, but any information you can find would be appreciated. (I can read simple Spanish if that's any help).

Yours faithfully
Annette Perry-Smith
Melbourne, Australia

Yeah... I heard about it... let me try... I'll keep you informed, but send me a direct mail...
regards,
Martin

I am trying to locate a departure port in Paraguay. The only thing I have is Ciudad Zalwar. I was able to locate Ciudad on the map, but haven't found Zalwar. Any help will be appreciated. Thank you. Jo.

Jo,

Ciudad i = to City... but Zalwar dont remind me nothing here... There are very few ports in Paraguay. Can you give me some more info ?

The only thing I have is Ciudad Zalwar, Schooner Anita, departure date was January 14, 1878. Thank you for trying.
