He was born in Santiago de Cuba circa 1906. He was the youngest of abotu seven siblings so your father could have been my grandfather's nephew. Carbonell is a Spanish name, not a Cuban one. Antonio's father was directly from Spain. So, the chances are that your father is closely related to my grandfather. Do you know any names of your father's family?
