I'm looking for more information about my dad's family particularly these surnames: grandma's side Guerrero, Parody, Yome, Milan and Villanueva and my grandpa's side Caetano, Desoisa(Desoiza), Trujillo and Zamora. If we have any matches or the same surnames feel free to contact me as I have come to a block with my tree. I know certain names are Spanish, Italian and Portuguese origin and some were born in Gibraltar and some in Spain. Any help would be appreciated! Regards

Thank you very much, I forgot about that website. I have found my great grandma on there Victoria Caetano, but want to learn more about her father Alfred.
Kind regards, Isabella

Isabella- take each surname in turn & use it to Search all members trees, top right under search.

If anyone else lists them, send the tree owner a message. Between you, you might be able to work out if there is a connection and further your research.
