Nacida en Versalles, Matanzas

My maternal great-grandfather was Manuel Vera y Verdura. He was a lawyer and senator in Matanzas in the 1930's. He left Spain in the 1880's or so. His father was: Felix de Vera and his mother was Matilde Saenz y Monjarre. His grandfather was Luis de Vera y Laffite and grandmother was Rita Morejon. I want to know more about my ancestry and possible relatives in the US or Spain. I live in Miami..
I was born in Matanzas, Cuba but left in 1962.

Mi abuelo se llamaba Manuel Vera y mi abuela Lucia Mendoza pero somos de Matanzas tambien, viviamos en Versalles con familia en la Playa, Juan Vera Mendoza y los Botino-Vera de Monticelo, Matanzas. Pero casi todos estamos en Miami.

Nice talking with you.

Bueno, pues me he tardado en responderte. Mi Padre se llamaba Antonio Vera Vergara y es del otro ramo de la familia.
Me imagino que quizás seamos parientes. Yo ahora radico en Illinois y desde 1.961 salí de Cuba rumbo a España.
Estuve en Canarias, pero el apellido Vera es muy común.
Mi abuelo era Antonio Vera Herrera y mi padre nació en el año de 1.906 en Matanzas.

Hi , I read in your post that your maternal great grandfather came from Spain and left en the 1800's. All my father uncles left to go America around that period. My father informs me that his father comes from the provence of Malaga, in a city called Tolo, Spain. My father's brothers are all in Puerto Santa Maria, Cadiz, Spain. I'm sorry but my dad doesn't remember that his father mentioning the names of his brother or sisters that imigrated to the Americas. My father imigrated to Australia
