The Botellos I mentioned go way back to the 1600s. Botello/Buentello is a great old name with lots of prestige back then. They connect to Mier Noriega who connect to my Canales. I don't know any modern Botellos; I have not searched for them yet. I hope you are having fun with your search. many thanks.
