There are some Canary Islanders & other Spanish passenger lists here: http://www.wadefalcon.com/ColonialSpanishFamiliesOfLouisiana/islenosfamilies.htm I don't have Spanish lines but found this site very interesting. I have some Falcon cousins.

Thanks for the "Bulls" info....I should have guessed that. I appreciate you checking the records also, thanks.... I don't know if they brought their priests with them. Anna left Canary Islands with her family 1778 aboard the LaVictoria. Am trying to determine if the "Antonia" Sanches is my "Anna Sanches" d/o Gaspard and Beatriz dit Flores alias Hela. My "Anna" Sanches married Pierre Honore Veillon in St. Bernard in 1814. Their marriage "legitimized their children giving them full rights of inheritance upon Annemarie Candelaria and Francoise Antonia Honore Veillon. I don't think the Antonio in the baptism record is my "Anna". I believe someone put the record in the records of the historical Society because they thought it may be relevent. Can you find my Anna and her family on the ship's lists? According to what I have Anna left Canary Islands with her family 1778 aboard the LaVictoria. She was born 1768. Pierre and Anna had three children, one, a son(Pierre Honore,Jr. did not live to adulthood. and must have been born after their marriage in 1814. as he is not mentioned. The son died in 1833at age 18.?(Veillon Family Book) their 2 daughters were of age and married when their father died.. It seems, that after Pierre's death in 1822 the two daughters squabbled quitea bit, according to the records I retrieved from the St. Tammany Hist. Society in Hammond at Southeastern. All the children were born, bapt, and raised in St. Bernard Parish. Pierre Honore was born there also. (their Father) Annemarie and Juan Gusman has their 3 oldest children in St. Bernard the remainder of their children were born in St. Tammany Parish. Thanks one more time for all your help. Marsha
