Estimado José, no se que de cierto habra con respecto a nuestro apellido, pues me an informado que cuando la invacion turca a España el apellido Barreira fue prohibido y todos los que tenian ese apellido pasaron a llamarse Barrera, que sabes al respecto por favor comunicare via e-mail eber220@msn.com, estoy enMiami pero pienso viajar proximamente a España, alla tengo un familiar que a invertido mucho tiempo y dinero tratando de encontrar a sus familias por el mundo.

Looking for the background of my father's family name (Ralphael Eugenio Barrera). His father(my grandfather) was born in Cuba on April 16, 1889. His father was from Andalucia and Leone Rosa Poree, mother was from the Canary Islands. I'm looking for my great grandfather and back. Any information would be most appreciated.

De La Barrera y De Barrera si tu apellido es solo
Barrera puede venir de estos.
