Francene,
My grandfather passed away in 1965 and my grandmother in
1982. From what I hear my grandfather was part Native American.
That's the reason why I asked if your grandmother knew where the
name orginated. The Ynfante name is very rare at least the way
we are spelling it. My Dad John Ynfante is 71yrs old, he doesn't
remember much about his dad side except for a few cousins. I am
wondering if your Grandmother means Beeville, which is where my father
was born. Have you tried looking at this site:

I have an Aunt who has been making a familytree to check
into the names you gave me.
