Doing research on the following family names: GARRIGA, DABAN, GINORIO, VISCAL, URRUTIA, CAMPOY, ACEVEDO, CASTANERA, NUALART, TORRO, GALAN, ROMAN, ROJAS, NOGUERA, CORES, DE LARA, SANTOS, CANTO, SANDOVAL, ALAYON, PREITO, and others. My family is primarily from Puerto Rico, but branches exist in Cuba, Mexico, the US, and perhaps other places in Latin America and Spain. We have family book that traces the Garriga and Cores family back to the 700's AD with the invasion of the Moors into Spain; and covers the Garriga, Acevedo, Jimenez, Daban, Cores, and Campoy branches that include the family history along with the certified coats of arms of each relative branch.
