He married Brigida Amalia Barranco on 2 December 1878 in Monroe County (Key West) Florida. Brigida was my Grand Aunt who was born also in Puerto Príncipe, Cuba on 16 August 1846. I do not know the ancestry of Enrique Estévez or whether he had siblings in Key West. There was a well-known photographer in Key West, Antonio Estévez, during this period and into the 1890s who had photographed, among other people, José Martí. Antonio Estévez appears in one or more of the Key West City Directories of that period. Hope this is of interest. Let me know whether there appears to be a connection between these Estévez and your Estévez kin. Stephen Barranco

A number of Lesesne branches moved to South America (mostly Brazil) and the Caribbean. The book "Our Southern Heritage" by Mary Jean McMichael Pierson, published in 1997 has a tie with Lozano on page 668, position 100 in the family tree. George Icely(6) Lesesne (Charles Frederick II (5), William (4), Charles Frederick(3), Frances(2), Isaac(1)) Married Christina Lozano, daughter of Manuel Lozano and Josephine Ortiz. Children: George Lee Lesesne, Sr (7) b 25 Jan 1920, d. 6 Mar 1975 m Anne Donny, Children: George Lee Lesesne Jr.(8) Hope this helps you. My personal query was that my uncle, Edward Blake Le Sesne, Jr. lived in Cuba in the late 40's for a short period of time, but I think he is not related since he returned from Cuba as a bachelor, but you never know!
