My name is Karen Cabrera. I'm writing in behalf of my dear friend Jose Manuel Diaz de Teran, a descendent from the Minorcans that labored the indigo fields in New Smyrna. Unfortunately, my friend lives in Spain, doesn't speak English, and it's difficult for him to further his search. I have done extensive research in the Historical Society of St. Augustine, St. Ambrose Church, the Cathedral Basilica of St. Augustine (As well as many sources in Spain). What we are looking for is not there. I came across this incredible website and decided to ask for help.

My friend and I would like to find information regarding the following:

-the ancestors of Juana Estefanopoli, daughter of Cristobal Estefanopoli, who married Manuel Vazquez Lopez in St. Augustine on January 7, 1802. She may have been a member of the Orthodox church before her marriage.
-any children born of the abovementioned marriage
-the manner and/or cause of death of Jose Vazquez Lopez, Manuel's brother, who was in the army and died on September 25, 1796. We have been unable to locate his death record.

Any information on this regard would be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely

Karen Cabrera

Great site with a lot of good information related to Minorcan heritage. For those interested in Minorcan heritage and history related to New Smyrna, Turnbull Colony and St. Augustine, FL. The University of Florida has posted an index of the East Florida Papers, (Spains official documentation of activities during their presence in Florida in the Second Spanish Period), which contain a lot of information related to the Minorcans of Florida.

Nice web site, a bit understated, but the antique documents are interesting. Several years ago, the web site included many photos. Are they gone because of the expense involved?

Having moved to Tennessee last spring I have lost contact with Joanne Fines in Manassas, Virginia. I have appreciated all the entries that she has made to the Basil Albert Halsema family history. I don't believe the last time that I was here that some of the news events was a part of the Halsema.org site. I really found this to be very interesting and even learned a few things about my father and the marriage of suprise of my parents. I am sharing this site with my daughter to introduce her to her long line of heritage and honor of knowing her family.

I have enjoyed visiting Halsema computer sites.

I believe I am related to Rembertha & William Stok.

My great, great grandfather, Raymond, was married to Remberta DeHaan.

My great grandfather's, Johannes, brother was named William. I believe Johannes was born in Eenrum. I believe my grandfather, Nicholas, was born in Kloosterburen.

I hope to visit Groningen within 9 months.

Thanks and please email me with any questions. I was raised in Texas but now live in South Dakota.

I am excited to find so many cousins! I am related to Rogue Leonardi, he is a grandfather. My great grandmother was Ellen (Ella) Louisa Leonardi who married George Wesley Meares. My grandmother was Agnes Myrtle Meares. I have been researching the Meares lineage for years and have much information that can be added here if there is an interest. I truely enjoy this site and am thankful for all the information that I have been able to add to my tree. The documentation is some of the best I've located and the internet to date. The Meares branch holds a family reunion every year and would love to have the Leonardi's join us. If anyone is interested please feel free to contact me at the above email.
