God bless everyone!!! I am simply overwhelmed at the response I have recieve from my inquiry on the Marti and Maceo families. I had no idea that that there was even a society for Marti-Maceo.You have really educated me in their personal life as well as their life in the spotlight.Being on this list has really been a blessing to me. My family name is Roudez or I have heard that it could have originally could have been Roudanez. I was trying to find if there was a connection between the Roudez and Maceo and Marti families. I had heard that the Roudez were related to General Antonio De La Caridad Maceo. And that Cesar Romero was a relative of the General Maceo also.I am truly amazed at all the info I have been given concerning these two families. I had heard that the Roudez family came from Spain then on to Cuba, where they were supposed to have either sugar cane or tobacco plantations or both. All of you have really whet my appetite to do more researching on the Marti and Maceo families even more. I am truly fascinated on all the information that all of you have shared with me. I want to learn even more about the Marti-Maceo Societies.Thank you all so much for your generosity in sharing your info with me. I am on another List in New Orleans, so any way I can help you,don't hesitate to let me know. In his Name, Diane
