The name Matta comes from the old Aramaic language, which translates to Matthew. I don't doubt that there are a lot of Mattas spread around the world, but there point of origin is from Mount Lebanon which today in in modern Lebanon. There are a lot of Mattas that come the vilage of Bhamdoun in Lebanon, and also from its neighboring areas, my maternal grandmother is a Matta from Bhamdoun, we are able to trace her family tree to the 12th century.

riccardomatta1 — 2009-09-16 13:28:33Z

this is my message: The name Matta is originated in Sardinia - Cagliari. It has been there for hundreds of years and represents still today a big clan. So most of Italian-Matta's in the world are originated from southern part of this island. Nevertheless, the name is originated in the middle east specifically in Lebanon were still today the name can be traced back thousands of years of a wealthy family. If you have more informations, please let me know because im trying to trace family roots.

Thank you

My Last name is Matta

Hi Rob, Yes that would be good thanks. Would also appreciate photos of 27 & 28 Ledra Road if it is possible.

Can you clarify whether Stephen Wellington Matt married his cousin Mary harriett Matta? It was St Austell Dec qua 1879 5C 170. I have checked the 1881 census and it sure looks like he did.

Thanks for the offer. I have some on the Fewins in St Austell and at least 3 of them moved on to Akron, Ohio where a large contingent of Cornish went.
I am currently researching the connections in St Austell/St Ewe of Fewins/Matta/Geach/Varcoe.
I also have an Albert Jenkin marrying a Rhoda Ruth Woodfield in Dec qua 1881, Poplar 1c 1243. I would like to know where in Cornwall he taught after marrying. I believe he died some few years later.
Don't go overboard with researching though!!

Matta - Italian!!!

2002-06-12 18:20:05Z

I know absolutely nothing about my granmother Albina's first husband, except that his last name was Matta, and he was Italian (or perhaps Sicilian?) and probably was born in Pennsylvania.
My grandmother was 69 when she died in 1977, so I am guessing he would have been born in the early 1900's, as her birth year was 1907.
Please -- any info would be nice.

I'm trying to help a friend find his family history (he does not have a computer). He states his mother was Maria (Matta) Ballesteros (1914-1972). They resided in Scotts Bluff, Nebraska. Maria was a Native American/Apache. I've spent hours looking for the Matta family but all I find are Mattas of every nationality except American Indian. Anyone out there able to lend me a hand? I would sure appreciate the assistance! Thank you.

crystal1156 — 2004-11-30 04:54:28Z

I recently found out that I have a half sister by the name of Janet Marie Matta, she was born sometime in the 1940's to the parents John Alexander Matta (from Minnesota) and Lorraine Matta. They lived in the Chicago/Fox Lake, Illinois area.
John and Lorraine were divorced and he remarried and lived in Toledo Ohio until his death in 1989.
I would love to find her and let her know I am her sister, and she has more family!

Re: family

jessmatta — 2008-10-17 20:37:46Z

That is pretty crazy, my father's name is Ronald Matta. We are all in the southern California area, but his parents moved here from Texas. My ancestry is kind of a mystery to me also. No one on my dad's side seems to have a clear idea what the history is. If anyone can shed some light on the subject it would be most appreciated.

Maria Matta

Maria Matta, a Davis resident for more than 60 years, died Nov. 23, 2003, at Sutter Davis Hospital. She was 77.

Born Oct. 3, 1926, in El Paso, Texas, to Pedro and Juana Ramirez, she came to Davis in 1941. She worked for many years as a housekeeper for many different families here.

Until a recent illness, she was an avid sports fan. She enjoyed San Francisco 49er football games and Oakland A's and San Francisco Giants baseball games, and was a fan of the Sacramento Kings basketball team. She liked going to rock concerts with her sons and friends, too, and spending summer vacations in South Lake Tahoe. She also had a passion for animals, especially dogs.

She was preceded in death by her brother, Ignacio Rameriz, and sister, Petra Rameriz.

She is survived by her sons, Alex Matta Jr., and his wife Muriel Suleiman-Matta of Davis; and David Matta of West Sacramento; and by her nephew, Daniel Rameriz.

The rosary will be recited Nov. 30, 2003, at 5 p.m. at Davis Funeral Chapel, 116 D St. The funeral Mass will be celebrated Dec. 1, 2003, at 10 a.m. at St. James Catholic Church, 14th and B streets in Davis. Burial at Davis Cemetery will follow.

In lieu of flowers, her family asks that contributions be made in her name to the Yolo County SPCA, 41831 Gibson Road, Woodland CA 95776.

Arrangements are under the direction of Davis Funeral Chapel.

Hi there...
I am desperately trying to locate a Roberto Matta Santiago.
He is the father of my good friend, her name is Arlene.
She has not seen him since she was about two years old.
She is not actively doing reasearch at the moment as she does not have access to the internet -temporarily. I told her I would help her.
She belives he may be about 45+ years old, and may have been born in either Carolina or San Juan -but is not quite sure. At some point he moved to NYC.
Please Contact me!
Thank you!

Hello, I am researching my husbands family...His last name is Matte...BUT THE NAME WAS CHANGE.. Used to be pronounce Matta.. They all settled in PA, in the Scranton area, some around Mayfield. History is told that the name was change when the family immg. from Italy - some say it was the mafai, the family was trying to make a clean living for their kids. Some say they left wifes behind in Italy, so they change the name to hide from there first wifes. I found the connect when the came over from italy, but I cant find them on any ship list or on Ellis Island--(Im not sure how to spell the name...)

Re: Andrew Matta& wife Anna Zipay

petermaly1 — 2008-09-05 13:28:28Z

The names of Matta and Zipay are very common names in the village of vysny zipov in Slovakia where I come from. Your post is pretty old so i assume you allready found some related information. If not, you could find some more information in the archives of the evangelical church of vysny zipov. According to the stories told here, someone with the name Zipay or later written as Zipaj is one of the founders of that place in the 17th century. Therefore the name of this village is now Zipov (adding -ov means belongs to) This family name is very old. So you will surely find some records in the archive. I searched the name Ondic and Repja which is my ancessors, I did find some information but there is a lot of information about your family name too. I hope this helped you a little bit. P.S. Sorry for my bad english, I am working on it :)
