Thanks a million. Im a Puerto Rican descent, My grand parents came to NYC from Puerto Rico, but I remember they mentioned that their grand parents where from the Canary Islands, and Vasco. I did not have any proof thru records, but I could see how my family looked like they came from Southern Spain. I will use this resource to help me connect the dots.
My family history hit a stop in 1898 so its good to know
Glad you found it helpful!
What a gift, thank you so much for sharing. This is exactly what I need. Thanks a mil.😊✌️
Thank you so much! I did my DNA on 23 and Me a few years ago and was so confused by my results that were ever changing. I plan to do it again on another provider to see what I get. I’ve been on your site as well as Ancestry.con and have hit some dead ends. I’m trying to go as way back on both mom and dad’s side and see when their families immigrated to PR and where they came from. I love doing the research and learn more about my family history and have it in a organized book for my kids to have for future generations.
Thanks for the info ,i shared it with my sister she's the family historian. thanks again.
Just what I been looking for thank you for posting!
Saludos,thank you very much for your time and info☀️🇵🇷
thank you so much for a history lesson long suppressed.
Todos los Puertorriqueños son descendiente de Españoles. Si tienes apellido Español o Portugues entonces tienes sangre iberica "ADN".. Lo cual pudo haber sido de un abuelo(a), un bisabuelo(a), tatarabuelo(a) que emigro a Puerto Rico de la peninsula Española e Islas Canarias
No tan solo eso porque también vinieron varios corsos (franceses) y algunas minorías de iralandeses como el “famoso” apellido O’Nell en la isla. También alemanes hay unos cuantos como por ejemplo políticos (sin entrar en temas partidistas) hay unos cuantos de todos los partidos (PNP principalmente) y otras minorías Europeas. Somos una mezcla muy sabrosa, no solo Africana, Taína o Española. Eso sin contar las minorías asiáticas que cada día se ven más, o por lo menos hace 5 años atrás si veía un asiático al año (quitando los restaurantes chinos) era mucho, ahora de vez en cuando vea algunos y fuera de la zona metro (LOL). Quizás por eso (quitando temas políticos y económicos), dentro de los lugares donde se acerca al humano ideal está Puerto Rico liderando esa lista (de momento). Nuestra mezcla es la mejor!!!
I love how she pronounces it))
Thanks again The Genealogy of my people helps me to know the salvation plan thanks for your concern
Puerto Rico wasn't a colony of Spain. Puerto Rico was a Autonomous community of Spain "province" provincia autonóma de ultramar de España before USA invaded Puerto Rico in 1898. What we have right now is a FULL 100% USA COLONY es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carta_Autonómica_de_Puerto_Rico_(1897)
Just for 1 miserable year 😂
@@norbertosuarez5722if you use the word miserable and sure you are méxican.
@@norbertosuarez5722antes de eso se tenía representación con voto en las cortes también. Pero claro, todos en América fueron (y aún somos colonia 🇺🇸) en algún momento colonia, antes solo habían indígenas por si no lo sabía 😅😂. No era suiza pero tampoco estábamos tan mal con 🇪🇸 como algunos quieren dar a entender…
Spanish history museum in Florida
Plenty of archives there and in Spain
I still don't see where these "Downloadable Resources" are. Can you tell me specifically?
I am a relative of Pedro Alonzo Nino
My family member discovered land
The Navigator
It was Not discovered, there were people already living there. 💚
Um, Puerto Rico has no provinces. I wonder whether you may be confusing it with districts.
Municipalities not districtss
Puerto Rico wasn't discovered, the Tainos were already there. Also, it is colonized by the U.S, not a territory.
I beg to differ Spain freed the Island 48 hours before the war ended and Puerto Rico has a seat on the Spanish parliament. It is the only former colony to have this distinction.
Puerto Rico has been a “melting pot” centuries before the USA ever existed. Imagine going back ten generations or even twenty. Doing the numbers can be an excellent challenge; so your surname is only a “dot” considering the hundreds of surnames that have contributed to your existence. There is very root in your last name and very misguiding! Even DNA is too basic for the present, but at least it is challenging and entertaining.
Why are you a expert on our history too many hands in the pot no good, they don't always tell the truth and have other intetions not good. I am PR both my parent raise and live in PR. It seem that
