The Many Branches of the Family Tree of Puerto Rico

Updated July 6, 2006

This home page is to chronicle the lives and the goings on of a few families who began their journey in Spain, Italy, and France to the beautiful island of Puerto Rico and onto the mainland of the United States. We are numerous and scattered thorughout the island and in the states. We span from Cidra to Mayaguez; from Philadelphia to Michigan. We are all shades of brown and olive, with hair curly and straight. We are Puerto Ricans; Boricuas, and Americans. We are Taino, European, and African. We speak English, Spanish, Spanglish with a southern accent!
I am on a journey of my own to trace the ancesestors and locate the decendents. Some of us are professionals, some from the campo. We are one of two or one of ten. We have many tias y primos. I hope that you join me in my search to track down the members of these clans. To reunite old relatives and introduce new ones. Please join in this exiting and interesting adventure!
This web page invites everyone to look and see what a rich hitory our families have in Puerto Rico. We are a great number of people. Most of the last names that appear are Alvarado, Burgos, Diaz, Feliciano, Garcia, Laboy, Laracuente, Martinez, Montalvo, Nieves, Ortiz, Rivera, and Rodriguez. If you think you may be a part of any included here, browse around and contact me with quesions, suggestons, or additions! Have fun!

Some tips: If you are a part of the Diaz family from Morovis,(my Dad's side) look under the "decendant reports of Pio Ortiz." The Feliciano family is under the "report of Luis Rivera." If you are related to the Rodriguez from Ponce, look under the "report of Antonio Rodriguez and Petronila Garcia". If you a part of the Diaz clan from Cidra, look under "Jose Laboy."

Please look on the tree to find yourself.
