humor! glory bee The next time you are feeling rather unimportant, try a little mathematical trick based on the fact that it took two people, your parents, to get you here. Each of your parents had two parents, so in the generation just prior to that of your mother and father, there were four people whose pairing off and sharing a love contributed to your existence. You are the product of eight great-grandparents, 16 great-great-grandparents, 32 great-great-great grandparents, etc. Keep on multiplying the number by two, you will discover that a scant 500 years ago, there were 1,048,576 people on this planet beginning the production of you.

I just got another friend involved in his Filipino genealogy. I started back in '90 and went to the LDS' Family History Center and began ordering films there. I was able to pull 297 names on my paternal grandmother's side, but this was only by doing those relatives who carried her surnames, the Puertos. Not Filipino with a Spanish surname. Here's an excerpt taken from: http://buhiclaveria.tripod.com/ DURING the early years of Spanish colonization, the indigenous people of what now is the Philippines were converted to Roman Catholicism and eventually forced to take either Spanish names or the names of saints for their first names. The native's names did not favor the ignorant ears and indolent tongues of the Spanish invaders. Governor General (1844-1849) Narciso Claveria y Zaldua went a step further. He issued on 21st November 1849 an executive edict compelling native and immigrant families to adopt Spanish surnames. A more capricious scheme then was the imposition on non-Spaniards to use surnames indexed according to their place or residence. For example, natives of the town of Baao, Camarines Sur were assigned family names starting with the letter "B" or those from Oas, Albay the letter "R." There's more on the net you could look about the surname acquisition in the Philippines. The book that was helpful in tracing my Filipino ancestry was called "Tracing your Philippine Ancestors". I believe the last name of the author was Vance. My friend borrowed it online. How he even found out about that book w/o me telling him I can't even tell you. It's a 3 volume book. The first volume tells you how to trace it, what to expect, etc. The 2nd volume focuses on each province, when it came to existence, etc. The 3rd volume I think lists all the churches and when each church began their records. All of my research was done through the catholic churches which the Family History Center has on microfilm plus other records like naturalization and some military records. They probably have more depending on which province you are searcing. That book I mentioned will be helpful as to what to expect and clues as to how to do your search. I really didn't find much over the internet except to bridge gaps between distant relatives. Here's what I did on my family if you're thinking of a way to present it. I've seen many other pages. All of them good too! http://home.earthlink.net/~motuahina/ohana1.html And also my genealogy: http://home.earthlink.net/~motuahina/kuauhau.html Kalani [email protected]

Greetings..we hail from the province of batangas, philippines. and we have a family site that we would like to make as comprehensive as possible on all the malvars. We know that we share the same last name with other spanish speaking folks.so if they were also doing their research, maybe we could help each other.Our site features a biography of our ancestor, a national hero who led in the battles against the spaniards and the americans. If someone could help us in our research on our family crest..we would appreciate it. My mother's family was able to obtain the family crest of the Reyeses..and it came from Spain. Unfortunately, the person instrumental in procuring their crest is dead ..and so we are seeking help. Thank you in advance. winddancer [email protected] http://www.malvar.net Females in batangas..always travel with our butterfly knives, our jusi embroidered fans..(to be ladylike)..and we serve the best strong barako coffee in this side of paradise Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

Would you be willing to accept members who share your last name..but are from the philippines. I hail from batangas..a province in the philippines..and i know that the calderons also hail from that town. They are illustrious and have a rich ancestry.. Good luck with the club. winddancer [email protected] http://www.malvar.net We in batangas..we take our barako coffee black..we travel with our balison knives...use our pina embroidered fans to be ladylike..and we got some fine buko pie..ah bliss.

We..the malvars of Batangas, Philippines have a site which features a bio of our national hero/ancestor Gen. Miguel Malvar. Since we only concentrated first on his children and his families..it was easier for us to build our tree. We did know who were my grandfather's siblings..and their children and who they married. Even then..hounding the relatives to submit their data took some time. There are some online resources which are available..that houses genealogical sites and surnmanes of people working on consolidating their ancestry. If you would like to get in touch with me..and give me your wife's last name and region where she comes from maybe i can help. Most surnames in the philippines..come from specific regions, even towns...so if it is an uncommon one, then your work is a lot easier. http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Ranch/9121/personal.html is an address you can look up, there is also another resource center of distinct Philippine surnames, just do not have its url at the moment.
