Hi:

My aunt Carmen & I have just started researching the Moret family name and are looking for descendants of Simon Moret.

This is some of what we know (or think we know) so far. As far as my Titi Carmen was told as a child, the Morets are one family; migrated from France to PR; and settled in Ponce and Guayama.

Simon Moret came from France in 1816.
He had a son - Clemente Moret who married Francisca Gallart.
They had a child named Simon Moret Gallart - born around 1854 (Mayor of Ponce from 1907-1914). (I found the 1920 census and it said Simon married Matilde Perdomo Morales and they had three daughters - Josefa Moret, Ana Moret and Carmen Moret)
I can't find this in the census, but my aunt has told me that Simon had a son named Enrique Moret who had children by the name of Olimpio Moret, Carmen Moret and Angel Moret (I believe there may have been another brother named Sixto Moret). Their mothers name may have been Amelia Rosado Martinez.
Olimpio had several wives who passed away and several children before he married my grandmother (his last wife) Engracia. Olimpio and Engracia had several children: Carmen Moret, Luis Moret, Maria Moret and Carmelo Moret.
Luis is my father and I have a sister named Mellissa and a brother Luis Jr.
As for Angel Moret, Olimpio's brother, he has several children also (Angel passed away last year)....one named Mildred Moret who has written on this message board. My Aunt Carmen (Mildred's first cousin) would love to contact her if you have any info. on her.

I would love to hear from you if you have any more info. on the Moret family!

Please feel free to contact me at minydi@yahoo.com.

Thank you,
Minydi Moret
