I'm not sure they're going to have her digitalized, but you can try online, a the Ministry of Justice, in Madrid, If they ask anythingmore than name and birthdate plus names of parents, which you have, then you will have no choice but...

He deserves that prize more than anybody I can think of. The Puerto Rican operation he paid for out of his own pocket, he fed around 3.000.000 people with his own money, because Trump refuused all help, not evem water did he get them. Good thing that people loke José RamónAndrés exist.

Hola Ramón y otras hierbas, Ya sabes que valoro mucho tu trabajo y siempre te empondero mucho. Pero hoy me parece que no estoy de acuerdo con los orígenes de la toponimia. Así por alto se me ocurren todos estos que empiezan por Car- y no me parece que tengan nada que ver: Caravia Carrio (Laviana) Ca...

Libros parroquiales antiguos

A mi me ayudó una miembro de este foro a encontrar mis antepasados de Lué (desde el primer libro de registro de la parroquia de S.Vicente de Lué y Sales). 9 generaciones, de las que no teníamos mucha idea!

Cómo se sabe cuándo un apellido surge en un concejo?

A mi me parece una información muy buena. Cofiño es obviamente del pueblo del mismo nombre que está a media ladera sur del Sueve,concejo de Parres (capital Arriondas). Somoano puede ser de Ribadesella, porque el monte que cierra la bahía de esta villa, con el faro en la cumbre, se llama Monte Somo. ...
