Blanco Family

Post by Erlene Best »

My grandfather was Joseph "Jose" Ramon Blanco,1885 he was born in Matanza Cuba. But I have learned that his father (#2) came from Asturia, Spain. He married to Concepeion Capestany.

My great grandfather was also name Jose Ramon Blanco (#2) born around 1860, his father was Jose Ramon Blanco 1830 (#1). I have been told that Jose (#1), had 3 sons that we know of: Donato 1855, Jose (*) and Victorino (Spainard) Blanco. We know that Donato and my Jose went to Cuba. But that is all we know.

I have done DNA, on ancestry is Spain. (German&Ireland) my father side. Spain could only be Blanco side. I have attach a photo of Jose #2, Joseph (3#), Ramon Blanco taken in Cuba in the early 1900.

No creo que tenga que ver con usted, por usted dice con Donato, el año de 1855.
Pero el 15/06/1859, pide al Ministerio de Ultramar, pasaporte Donato Blanco, del pueblo de Piñera, Cudillero, para La Habana.
I don't think that this information has to do with you, because you say with Donato, the year of 1855.
But the 15/06/1859, Donato Blanco apply for pasaport to the Ultramar Ministry, of the village of Piñera, Cudillero, for La Habana.

A principio del s. XIX, pasaron varios Capestany, de Altafulla - Tarragona (Cataluña), a La Habana.
At the beginning of the s. XIX, passed several Capestany, from Altafulla - Tarragona (Catalonia), to Havana.

Perdone las molestias, si le he hecho perder su tiempo.

1859, it is the year, that Donato applied for passport.
It would be good to know the second surname of Jose Ramon (#1) or (#2).

Joaquin Maria Capestany Rius, 30/10/1822, he applied for to go to La Habana, to continue the business of the family members, and Parent-owned interests. He was from Altafulla (Tarragona - Cataluña)
Florencio Capestany Gatell, 24/12/1831, he applied for to go to La Habana, to work in the shop of his uncle Jose Gatell. He was from Altafulla (Tarragona - Cataluña)
