A Family Odyssey Updated July 29, 2008

This history began years ago in chats with my maternal grandparents whose descriptions of their lives in Puerto Rico set me on a personal voyage of exploration to learn more about my family history and culture. I've discovered an amazing and very diverse family whose collective roots extend around the globe to include Puerto Rico as well as Argentina, Austria, Cuba, England, France, Germany, Holland, Ireland, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Sardinia, Scotland and Spain. The creation of this page has already led to new and valued contacts with several family members. I hope that reading these family histories will stimulate discussion and strengthen the bonds within your family as it already has in mine. Enjoy the odyssey, and many thanks to all who've responded with your comments and questions. ************************************************************************************** The following are the primary places & surnames of interest on this family page: From Puerto Rico--- Cayey: DE JESÚS, LOPEZ, CÓLON Ceiba: LIMA Fajardo: VIDAL, MONTES, ALVIRA, MARQUEZ, AGOSTO, RIVERA Guayama: QUIÑONES, PABÓN Naguabo: OJÉA, MELENDEZ, LIMA Vieques: LIMA, BENOIT From Poland--- Sandomierz: MANHEIM Tarnozbrzeg: KLEINMANN From Germany--- Nüssloch, Rhein-Neckar-Kreis, Baden-Württemberg; Bavaria: HOLLFELDER Pfullingen & Stuttgart, Baden-Württemberg: LIST From Argentina--- Córdoba & Buenos Aires: LUJAN, GURUCHARRI From Italy--- Montella, Campania: RINCHIERA, ALVINO *************************************************************************************
