I just came across a name in the Arvelo family that is of interest to me. You mention a Juan Bautista Arvelo and Maria Antonia Albelo in one of your answears to Isabel (yr 2003). In my research of my family roots I have found similar names. Both of this names are related to other Arvelo's with maternal last names of "Velazquez" ; "Muniz"; Nieves". Are you familiar with the names "Basilio Arvelo" , "Senon Arbelo";
"Anacleto Arvelo" , "Eladio Arvelo" or "Demencio Arvelo". My research indicate that in 1910 Puerto Rico had over 32 Municipios where the Alvelo families lived with a total of over 80 Barrios having Arvelo or a variation of this name, living there. Branches of one family can be found, sometimes, in as many as five diferent towns. Moca, San Sebastian, Utuado, Ciales and Lares were towns that could be considered as "La Cuna de los Arvelo" in 1910. I thank you for any infomation you are willing to share with me.
