Author: FamilyResearcher5113 Surnames: Parra, Garcia Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.caribbean.cuba.general/2443.2461.3059.3078/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I'm not sure if this matches anything anyone has but I am also trying to find more information on my Parra family from Cuba that lived in the Tampa area. My connection to the Parra's is through my Garcia ancestors. My great grandfather's mother was Louisa Parra and she was probably born in Cuba. I did find a 1900 Census from Hillsborough County, FL with their information on it. Her husband was Louis Garcia and they eventually divorced. Their descendents live in the Philadelphia, PA area now and I believe that is also where Louisa died. Louis and Louisa had several children including Delio, Rene, Roland, Eli and two daughters. Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Todas la personas que llevan el apellido Oramas son descendientes directos de "Doramas," (d-uhraw-qmas) un personaje historico que peleo valientemente la conquista de los "Castellanos" circa 1478 en Canarias. Doramas nacio en el guartemato de Telde en Gran Canaria. Pertenecía al estrato social común, pero su valor, gran personalidad y su fama de guerrero aumento tanto su prestigio social que posteriomente fue declarado noble por el Guanarterme de rGaldar. Según varios historiadores, Doramas fue el ultimo Guanarterme de Telde en Gran Canarias. Murio en la Batalla de Arucas. El apellido evoluciono de "Doramas" (atravez de su hijo Juan Doramas) a "de Oramas" a simplemente "Oramas." Es uno de los pocos apellidos autenticamente de origen Canario. Los aborigenes Guanches procedian de una raza blanca, rubia/peliroja, y generalmente eran bastante altos con ojos claros. El libro "Historia, Leyenda y Genealogía de Apellido Oramas" de José Antonio Oramas Luis, incluye la genealogía (casi) completa de los descendientes de Doramas. Mi apellido es Díaz de Oramas y pude encontrar a todos mis ancestros en el libro, incluyendo el ancestro que emigro a Cuba. Buena suerte, Marisela
