Hi, I'm looking for information on my mother's family, they were from Nicaragua. Where is the best place to look for records? Your help would be deeply appreciated. Thank you.

Hey, looking for Valientes in Santiago de las Vegas, Cuba, Castanedas in Spain, Urrebasos in Basque country. I know the Valientes were in Cuba from at least 1845 to 1900. Before I assume in Spain. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

keep trying - you'll eventually find your immigrant ancestors. Where in Puerto Rico are you researching?

Hi Lynn,
My parents and ancestors are from Puerto Rico.
In my searches I still have not found any outside of Puerto Rico.
But obviously I do have some. Just can't find them yet.
